Animal/Plant loving, Health/Science Professionals

30, Health Professional

34, Remote Consultant, Biomedical Engineer, Scientist, Academic Lecturer

Kristie and Trent are professionals in the Medical and Science fields, having recently relocated from Australia to New Zealand. (Trent works from home)

Kristie is a health professional (community/pre-hospital settings) with roots in rural coastal living, has a deep affinity for animals of all sizes, stemming from her upbringing around horses and domestic pets. Her work and leisure activities have taken her across the globe. Kristie has previous work experience in administrative and legal secretary roles, with 10+ years experience in Australian hospitals. Meanwhile, Trent is an experienced scientist, specialising in interdisciplinary medical research. Since his early teens, Trent has been involved in volunteering and research projects centred on animals spanning from domestic to wild, in farmland, terrestrial and aquatic settings whilst working alongside veterinarians, field ecologists and biologists. Now in his mid-30s, Trent’s care has extended to a diverse range of creatures, including dogs, cats, sheep, cows, birds, reptiles, arachnids, and marine life. Alongside his passion for animals, Trent has an avid green thumb and a passion for plants, from orchids, bonsai, herbs, and vegetables and has worked with a family-owned bespoke horticulture and landscaping business throughout his studies in science and engineering.

We are people who believe in mutual respect and kindness for all things. Our ethos not only extends to your pets and farm animals, but your household as well. We believe that belongings are extensions of people and therefore treat them with the same respect and care.

It was our absolute pleasure to have Kristie and Trent look after our house and fur-baby for 6 weeks. Their communication was excellent before, during and after. We received lots of photos and updates while we were away. Trent also kindly offered his services as our airport shuttle driver (2 hours from our Waikato home to & from Auckland Airport) which was an amazing (and unexpected) help and added greatly to our overall experience. The house was immaculately clean and tidy when we got home. ... MORE
 
TONY (Te Miro North Island, May 2024 - 1 month 1 week)
Kristie and Trent did an excellent job for us looking after our home and dog. We returned home after nearly 6 weeks to a very happy and healthy dog and a clean and tidy house and yard. They were both very easy to communicate with, very open and friendly in all our interactions and in fact stayed with us for 1 night before we left on our holiday. Highly recommend them for their care and professionalism during this house-sit. Many thanks.
 
BILL AND DEBBIE (Cambridge North Island, Jul 2024 - 1 month 1 week)
Kristie and Trent were fantastic house sitters. Our cat and dog were extremely happy and well looked after in their company. The house was left immaculate, and communication was great. Highly recommend them.

Kristie and Trent were nothing short of fabulous. House left immaculate, cleaned sheets and bed remade and house plants looking healthier than ever. My cat and dog were very happy in their company and very well looked after and loved. Great communication through out. Highly recommend them, couldn't have been happier.

Safe house!

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