Kia ora!

I'm Amy and I love to be outside on walks or spending time at the beach. Other activities that occupy my time are yoga and dance. I’m currently studying full time at University of Auckland doing a Masters in Dance and Movement Therapy.

I enjoy the company of animals, and giving them care and attention. Throughout my childhood I had pet cats, a dog and guinea pigs.

I'm Amy and I love to be outside on walks or spending time at the beach. Other activities that occupy my time are yoga and dance. I’m currently studying full time at University of Auckland doing a Masters in Dance and Movement Therapy.

I enjoy the company of animals, and giving them care and attention. Throughout my childhood I had pet cats, a dog and guinea pigs.

Most of the week I’m studying from home or out for just a few hours at a time at a dance therapy class, so I’m around a lot during the day to spend time with animals.

I'm responsible and reliable. I like to take care of my space and keep it tidy, and I treat other's space with the same respect.

I love plants and am happy taking care of indoor or outdoor leafy friends.

I'd love to have a chat if you think I'd be a good fit for your house sit. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Amy was a great housesitter, and my cats were relaxed and happy when we returned. She sent us a few photos of how our cats were going, and let us know when post and packages arrived. The house was super tidy when we got back. Thanks Amy!
Amy stayed at our house for 3 months and looked after our two cats. We were extremely happy with Amy and how she looked after the place. She alerted us to any potential issues with the cats and rectified them promptly, and regularly sent us photos and updates. The cats were clearly very comfortable with Amy and enjoyed her company! The place was lovely and clean when we arrived home, with our bed freshly made. We would definitely trust Amy to housesit again and recommend her to others.
We recently hosted Amy for a week over Christmas/New Years. She was an excellent guest, and we recommend her to anyone in the future. An issue occurred with our house while we were gone - Amy handled it promptly and was able to get it resolved and kept us in the loop through clear communication. She took great care of our home (left it clean and tidy) and pets. Thanks for watching our home!
Amy was a fantastic house sitter. It's the first time we have used this site for our place and dog Marley. We came home to a very tidy house and a happy dog. He's not the most straight forward to look after, but Amy did an amazing job. Her communication was great, I would highly recommend her for a house/pet sitter.
Amy stepped in at the last minute to look after our dog Sterlo for 10 days when previous house sitters fell through. From our first meeting, she seemed very responsible and experienced and asked a lot of good questions which made us feel at ease. Amy took great care of our dog and our house and sent us daily updates with photos. We would love to have her look after Sterlo again in future.
Amy is a lovely, calm person to link with. My dog, Gypsy, was just SO well and content when I got home after 5 weeks away. And how lovely to come home to a tidy house ( it's usually quite messy 🤣 ) Thanks Amy - you are a gem.
We were so happy and grateful for the way Amy cared for our house and little dog. The communication with Amy was great, and our house was so clean and tidy when we got home. Anyone would be lucky to have wonderful Amy look after their house /pets!
It was lovely to come home to happy cat, dog, chooks and bird plus a lovely clean, welcoming home. Our animals have bonded with Amy so much they keep looking to see where she has gone! Amy was very thoughtful and kind throughout and went the extra mile even picking us up from the airport. We highly recmmend Amy as a house sitter.
Amy was so wonderful taking care of our fur baby. Our dog seemed happy. A number of friends commented that they'd run into Amy and our dog several times. Our home was really clean when we returned and our plants were doing well. A huge thank to Amy for being such a stellar kiwihousesitter!
Amy stayed for us while we were on holiday in Japan and did a great job of looking after the cats (x3) and the house. It was nice knowing the house was safe and the pets had company while we were away. Amy was easy to contact and always responsive to messages. We came home to a clean house and happy cats! I would recommend Amy to other people looking for a sitter. Thanks again for your help :)
Amy was great. She is considerate, communicative & respectful. On return, the house was tidy & clean. The handover catchup was lovely. She looked after my two cats, Sam and Hector, beautifully. They were healthy & relaxed when I returned. You can really rely on Amy if anything happens to your pets too! Sam had two visits to the vet (abscess & he put his tooth through his top lip) & Hector (a home body) went missing for 4 days! Very worrying but Amy was amazing e.g. calling vets & the SPCA, ...

Sam had two visits to the vet (abscess & he put his tooth through his top lip) & Hector (a home body) went missing for 4 days! Very worrying but Amy was amazing e.g. calling vets & the SPCA, posting on social media & putting flyers up around the neighbourhood. She also liaised with a contact family member. Hector was found!... trapped under neighbour’s house. She kept me well-informed so I always felt like everything was being taken care of. Definitely consider Amy! Thank you so much.

Amy is a really easy housesitter - great communicator, reliable and the house and cats were great once we got home. One of our cats was being particularly difficult by deciding to stay outside a lot but he needs medication daily, thankfully Amy was able to manage this well and the cat seems fine healthwise upon our return.
Amy was easy to deal with, our dog was very content and clearly enjoyed being looked after by her. The house was well cared for and communication was very good. I would highly recommend Amy as a sitter.
Amy was great, we came home to the house the same way we left it, and a happy and content dog who clearly had been loved and exercised while we were away. Feel free to contact for a reference. Thanks

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
