Hello, my name is Joanna . I am always excited by adventure and seeing new places and most particularly the chance to look after and love someone's home and pets.

favoriteWhy I love house sitting

Being in someone's home while caring and respecting their property and pets feels like a great way to put something back and having a little adventure at the same time.
I am a very fit woman and enjoy walking and getting out into the fresh air and garden .

My late husband and I lived on a lifestyle block for 30 years near Gladstone in the Wairarapa. We had dogs, cats, hens, sheep and a horse and an extensive orchard.
I have recently moved into town with a small section. I love the thought of being able to help people have a holiday knowing that their pets and home are being well looked after.
We used to have friends house sit when we went away in our campervan and felt very reassured to have someone we could trust with our home and pets.

We used to have friends house sit when we went away in our campervan and felt very reassured to have someone we could trust with our home and pets.
I am wanting to have a new chapter in my life and feel encouraged and excited to be able to house sit for people. I am very fit and strong and have a DIY mentality.
I look forward to making some new friends and being in new places.
