About me

40, Science professional

Calm, reliable and respectful house sitter. Clean, organised, and experienced with cats and dogs. I enjoy a quiet lifestyle, outdoor walks, and caring for homes and pets with attention.

favoriteWhy I love house sitting

I enjoy house sitting as a calm and meaningful way of living while caring for a home and pets. I value the trust homeowners place in me and take responsibility seriously. I enjoy keeping homes clean and organised, and providing care and companionship so pets feel safe and comfortable.

Hi, I’m a reliable and easy-going person currently based in New Zealand, with a flexible lifestyle that allows me to house sit across different locations.

I have a calm and independent routine, and I genuinely enjoy peaceful, tidy living environments. I treat every home with care and respect, just as if it were my own.

Hi, I’m a reliable and easy-going person currently based in New Zealand, with a flexible lifestyle that allows me to house sit across different locations.

I have a calm and independent routine, and I genuinely enjoy peaceful, tidy living environments. I treat every home with care and respect, just as if it were my own.

I’ve always enjoyed being around animals — I previously had a cat in my own home, and I’ve also helped care for dogs for family and friends. I’m comfortable following routines such as feeding, walking, and giving pets attention and companionship.

My lifestyle is quite balanced and active. I enjoy going to the gym, spending time outdoors, and taking walks — which naturally fits well when caring for pets that need regular exercise and company.

I’m naturally organised and attentive to details — whether it’s maintaining cleanliness, watering plants, or following specific instructions for pet care or household routines.

I’m also very mindful of privacy and boundaries. I don’t host parties or bring people over, and I keep a low-profile, respectful presence in the home.

I’m happy to provide updates during the sit if needed, so homeowners can feel completely at ease while they are away.

Review

Lily was wonderful! We couldn't have asked for a better house sitter. From the initial meet-up to our return, everything was seamless. Our cat Molly, was really well cared for, and we received regular updates that gave us total peace of mind on our trip. We came home to a meticulously clean house and a very happy Molly! Highly recommended to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We will be reaching out to Lily next time we go away for certain. Thank you Lily!
Thank you so much Lisa and Mark! I really appreciate your lovely words 🥰 It was an absolute pleasure looking after Molly and your beautiful home. I’d be very happy to see you all again next time! xx
