favoriteWhy I love house sitting

I really enjoy being around animals — I find it relaxing and rewarding to spend time with them and get to know their little personalities. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just having quiet time together, it never feels like a chore to me.

Hi there,
I’m Ayse, originally from Turkey, and I’ve been calling New Zealand home for the past seven years. I recently moved to the Auckland region, and I’d love the opportunity to look after your fur babies while you’re away.
I’m based in Auckland but happy to travel, as I have my own transport. I have plenty of house sitting experience and can provide references. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals — whether it’s long walks, playing fetch, or helping with basic training.

I’ll treat your home with respect, follow your house rules, and make sure your pets stick to their usual routines so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
Things to note for future hosts:
I really appreciate clear communication from the start, especially around instructions and expectations for your home and pets.
I usually prefer to have a quick video call before confirming a sit, as it’s an easy way to connect and go over details. If you feel a face-to-face meeting is necessary, I’m happy to discuss this — just please note that, as this is an unpaid service, travel can involve additional costs on my end.

We had a short weekend away, Aysegul was a fantastic minder for our two dogs. Left the house cleaner than when we left. Great communication from the outset and no problems during the stay. Would absolutely have her back again.
Aysegul was fantastic looking after Ollie, Peppa and our fish while we were away. It was reassuring knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She kept us updated, took great care of our home, and we came back to happy, well-looked-after pets and a tidy house. We'd happily recommend Aysegul to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring house sitter, and we'd love to have her back again in the future. Thank you so much!
Aysegul was friendly, flexible, stayed in touch about my cat and left my house very clean and tidy. Thanks very much again for housesitting Aysegul!
Our house sit was confirmed with Ayse. She was AMAZING!!! Ayse had a wee list of things to do for our 4 horses, 2 cats, 2 dogs and then, without prior notice from us, we threw an extra job of looking after the cows too and feeding out to them. Sorry Ayse about that! :) But you just took it all in your stride. You did a fantastic job caring for our menagerie. We'd have you back to care for them all in a flash. THANK YOU SO MUCH AYSE. We never got the chance to yarn about Turkey, ... MoreOur house sit was confirmed with Ayse. She was AMAZING!!!

We never got the chance to yarn about Turkey, next time. HIGHLY RECOMMEND AYSE. She went above and beyond with making up the extra horse dinners for when we got home on the Sunday which she didn't need to do and the chocolate afphans were delilicious. Thanks Ayse xxx

Aysegul is a wonderful house sitter! I came back to a happy hound and lovely tidy home. We communicated easily. We would definitely like her to help again sometime! Thank you very much! Charles and Roger.
Aysegul was great with our pup. He instantly took a liking to her. She had great communication with me prior to the sit aswell as during and after. The house was left very clean and tidy and we returned to a happy pup. Highly recommend her sitting for future people.
Ayse took good care of our dog and house, she sent us photos of Flix and his adventures and communicated well. We were on a different timezone and our internet connection was not great but she had good initiative and sent us daily a message or a photo which helped us to relax, knowing he is well looked after. I would recommend Ayse for future pet sits and hope she can help us again in the future!
Very happy in all respects. Ayse was clearly very capable and confident so we were able to fully relax knowing Teddy our dog was being well cared for. Returned to a clean and tidy house with nothing to do. Very happy to recommend.
Ayse came to my support last minuit after another person had declined on me. Thank you, Ayse, for staying, keeping the house clean and the dog happy. Bosco was super relaxed when I came home.
Aysegul’s communication was so good every step of the way. This was a last-minute housesit, and we’re so grateful she rolled with our late planning! We arrived home to two happy dogs and a spotlessly clean house. We would absolutely have Aysegul take care of our dogs and home again.
Aysegul was a great house sitter. She was great with our dog and gave regular updates. Everything was clean and tidy when we came home. Very reliable.
Aysegul was a delightful house sitter. She was very committed to doing a good job and looked after my house, cat and garden really well. She was super responsive with great comms throughout my time away. Would highly recommend.
Ayse has been house sitting my birds and been lovely with them. We had good communication and her commitment would make me asking to resit in the future. Thanks!
Peace of Mind

Happy you!

With a house sitter looking after your pets, house and garden - you can really relax. Happy days.
