House Keeper
We are still searching for the perfect house keeper for our beautiful property near Māpua. The lady who has done the job really well for the last two years is moving to Golden Bay.
The accommodation is in a fully furnished, cozy and comfortable independent cottage with its own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and laundry.
The Cottage is offered rent-free in exchange for help with housework, ironing, general gardening and caring for our large friendly dog whenever we are away.
Electricity, gas and unlimited fast internet are included.
The position would suit a fit and energetic single lady who would appreciate the beautiful and tranquil setting on the Waimea Inlet.
The property has extensive gardens, a swimming pool and sauna to enjoy.
We look forward to welcoming the right person to our serene and peaceful bubble.

Best way to use leftovers?
I'm sure you've got some excess ham at home or cold roast potatoes.
What are some of your favourite ways to use leftover food from Christmas day? Share below.
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
