Housesiter Available
I'm housesitting (includes pets) full time now and have a few gaps which I would be happy to fill. I spend a bit of time at home working and wouldn't leave your pets for more than a few hours. I usually take them with me on outings if they are small - med dogs. Love looking after cats too of course also fish.
If you know someone who would like an animal whisperer to care for pets in their homes while away please pass on my name. I have some very nice reviews from previous housesits on kiwihousesitters.
One pet owner had this to say . . .
"Thank you so much for all your care of Stella and our home. We are glad you took her to the vet”.
Stella’s sores have healed perfectly due to your care. Thanks for the flower and garden weeding. Thank you for your awesome care in her last few weeks of 15 years of her life."

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
