My two kids are off at uni now, so houseā€‘sitting gives me the perfect mix of company, quiet, and purpose. When Iā€™m not working, youā€™ll usually find me playing pickleball or enjoying Christchurchā€™s outdoors. If youā€™re looking for someone reliable, calm, clean, and caring, Iā€™d love to look after your home and pets so you can travel with complete peace of mind. Late last year I completed 6 weeks house-sit in napier for a lovely couple who did a Europe trip. On their return they asked me to house-sit again 3 more times. I am comfortable mowing lawns. Can meet with you prior to house-sit whenever suits you. Happy holidays šŸ˜Š Sarah

Sarah was absolutely fantastic! She left the house spotless, communicated wonderfully, and took excellent care of the dog. Iā€™d highly recommend her to anyoneā€”perfect house and pet sitter
We were delighted with the care Sarah took with our home and animalsā€¦ even taking them out to engage with family in the local community. Communication and concern were at the forefront of our home and animals best interests and Tilly and Gus were well loved and looked after. I would welcome Sarah back anytime and highly recommend her to others who are looking for a conscientious, friendly and per loving person.
