Nelson
Nelson is known for having a creative side with artists using the beautiful surroundings for inspiration for their work. Locals and visitors soak up the surroundings too. Whether it is the parks and beaches of Nelson-Tasman, or the vibrancy of events such as the Nelson Arts Festival, or the New Zealand Cider Festival, or the Nelson Mask Parade, Nelson has huge variety. If you’re a house sitter in Nelson, then rent-free living can provide a dream lifestyle, particularly if you love walking dogs as Nelson has great open spaces. But if you’re just passing through, Nelson will certainly not disappoint. The people are wonderful and the sun seems to always be shining.

Hi our names are Maryna and Neil, We are close to retiring and feel it is our time to discover the rest of the South Island in New Zealand and while doing that, do what we enjoy and that is looking after peoples pets and a little gardening while we at it. We immigrated here 11 years ago and have been living in the Catlins ever since so love to explore . As we do not have animals of our own (not by choice) this will also give us a great opportunity to enjoy other people's pets while we are on breaks. We are reliable and trustworthy and are managing a holiday park in the Catlins. This is a 24/7 entity and being in hospitality means we know what is expected from cleanliness and client communication. Neil is a handyman and extremely keen garderner so finds himself very busy most of the time. We both are pet lovers and with previous housesitting experience in London, South Africa and in the Catlins, we have done a lot of dog walking, cuddling cats and even looked after pigs, horses and chickens. We both love fishing and used to take our doggies with us (back in South Africa) so they could have a good run around, and when given the chance they would steal some of our catch! It would be our privilege to help home owners out by looking after their homes and taking care of their pets ( with lots of love) putting their minds at ease. We love to update owners at any time as to how things are going back home. Please feel free to contact our referees and ask any further questions you may want answered.

Hi there Our names are Mike (61 years young) and Sandy (Actually young 51). Hi I'm Mike and I am a professional musician, I have been involved with the music industry for 45 years here in New Zealand and in Australia. I was brought up on a farm in the Bay of Islands and went to school in Whangarei. Because of my touring lifestyle, pet ownership has not always been possible. However I did have a three legged dog named Pup when I was younger. Pup would ride everywhere with me on my motorbike. She actually toured all over NZ with me. I enjoy all animals, especially dogs and I have done plenty of house and pet sitting for friends over the years. Hi I'm Sandy. I have been working predominantly in the tourism/hospitality industry for the last 10 years. Presently based in the Bay of Islands I am originally from Raglan in the Waikato. I have had a variety of pets as a young child growing up. Cats, rabbits, birds, turtles, dogs and a horse. Most recent was Roxy a mixed breed dog and Dennis a Exotic Persian cat. Both of these passed away due to old age and health issues. We are now traveling NZ and would love to be able to help you out with looking after your house and pets while you are away.

Kia Ora! I love exercising dogs and cuddling cats! Leave me with your house, loved ones and I will attend to them like yourself. Take comfort in enjoying your break with confidence all in order when you return. I'm Emily in my mid 30's, single and a non-smoker - available to house and pet sit for you city wide - ideally near the sea or bush where I can take your loved animal for regular exercise. I’m a responsible, church-going Christian and a female professional. Able to work from the city or from home if required. Even love to leave a treat in the fridge for you when you return. Emily

Hi .. My name is Jude.. I am a 59 year old Women, Company Director and mobile travelling sales person, selling educational resources to schools throughout NZ. I have been working in a travelling sales role all around NZ for more than 30 years... working, travelling and usually staying in motels or my time share accommodation, which tends to be a little expensive over the year. I have flexibility and can work any in area. I am normally at work daily for around 5-6 hours and home mid afternoon to do paper work etc. feed, walk animals, and prepare dinner. I own 2 houses and at present have them both rented with tenants and flatmates. So I totally respect other peoples property and belongings. I have done a lot of housing sitting over the years and have cared for and feed many animals. Auckland for 3 months looking after dogs and cats. Farm animals or feeding chickens, which is no problem as I am a country girl at heart. I have had looked after 3 large dogs. One that required monitored medication daily and exercise. I have also had to feed unwell cats medicine etc and have no problem caring for your pets no matter what there needs. I enjoy the company of animals especially since I am away from home so much. Whilst I am at home during the summer months, I used to host overseas students that come to NZ to learn English. I have had many students over the years, Swiss, Thai, Arabian, Japanese, Chiian, Brazillian. They all love staying with me and I recently even had someone REQUEST to stay with Jude Habib. Very unusual. Obviously now due to covid this is not happening. Homeowners can be assured that I will treat their home and their pets as they would themselves with upmost care and respect enabling them to have a stress free time away from home and to enjoy your holiday with no concerns.

Hi there, a trusty worth honest human, looking to leave a lighter tread on the planet. I work from home and supposed to be travelling around the world teaching yoga right now but covid has changed a lot. To create my best work I like to be able live by myself, get out in nature and explore different areas. I housesat consistently for 2 years around 2014-2016 and am looking forward to doing this again since i am home in New Zealand. I love taking care of your animals, that's all the company I need. I have sat for & have experience with many different animals. Dogs = labradoodle, mini schnauzer, bernese mountain dog, border collie, boston terrier, wolf hound and jack russell, Cats = tabby kitten, burmese, persians, chartruese and more. Also have plenty experience with chickens, some house birds, rabbits and guinea pigs. I haven't had the experience of looking after horses or donkeys yet but I would love to and would love the opportunity. I grew up on a small farm, so all though its been a very long time, I have had some experience with stock and happy to learn if needed. I used to own a great dane, ridgeback cross until I left for overseas travel, so I am very comfortable with large breeds, he now lives with my best friend and her 2 boys where is well exercised, loved and I can see him anytime i'm in my hometown. I have always lived my life with the intention of leaving a profit, if I have the chance to housesit for you I will treat your home with love and respect and will leave it cleaner than I found it. Expect clear communication and reliability.
