Chris Green

63, Actor/Singer/Teacher

A quiet-loving, considerate and careful full time house sitter (non-smoker). I have over 20 years of private housesitting experience - initially in school holidays for teaching colleagues or their families, and for the last 5 years including very successful kiwihousesits since joining in September 2013. My housesitting CV is attached.

I am an animal lover; but as I often travel as free lance actor/singer owning a dog or cat would be unfair. House sitting provides me with a way to undertake acting and singing work where it fits in with the house sitting requirements, but also means I have a wonderful, and growing "family" of friends - human and furry to add to my own children and grand children.

Thanks again Chris was so nice being able to relax knowing our home and farm were in good hands. Got home to a clean home and happy animals. Had a few unplanned farm related issues which Chris happily fixed for us. Would have Chris back anytime.
 
DANIEL & JESSIE (Waitakaruru North Island, Feb 2024 - 1 week 2 nights)
Chris was a pleasure to have in our home. Our dogs were well taken care of and were happy and healthy upon our return. Would happily have Chris sit for us again.
 
LORI (Waimatuku South Island, Mar 2024 - 1 week 5 nights)
We were very happy with Chris for the care he took of Sandi while we were away and our home too.
 
ANN (Te Aroha North Island, Feb 2024 - 1 week 2 nights)
Chris was lovely to deal with in the communication. He came by to visit our place before we confirm the sit. He is very experienced and our pets were all well taken care. He will text us on what is happening with the pets and our home when we are away. We came home to a clean home with happy pets. Thank you Chris again for your patience with them.
 
PRISCILLA (Kelson North Island, Jan 2024 - 1 week 1 night)
Chris is a fantastic sitter especially for dogs and home in general. It is reassuring to have someone you can fully trust. I recommend Chris as a house sitter.
 
RACHEL (Owhiro Bay North Island, Dec 2023 - 4 weeks)
We had a great experience with Chris who as our 1st house/dog sitter, booking for a weekend. He was great to communicate with leading up to the date and let us know his arrival time on the day. Chris also let us know how Digby was doing each day and Digby seemed happy and relaxed when we got home. Chris had vacuumed and hung out the washing, which was much appreciated. Wouldn't hesitate to use Chris again and would recommend Chris to others. Kind regards Kevin and Therese.
 
THERESE (Pukekohe North Island, Dec 2023 - 2 nights)
Chris did a great job looking after our property and our GSP, Cooper. I liked that he treated the pet care as a top priority with the house sit and built a great relationship with our boy, devoting plenty of time for exercise and companionship. We would have Chris back again in the future.
 
WARWICK (Tauranga North Island, Nov 2023 - 2 weeks 1 night)
Chris did a wonderful job for us while we were away. Our two old dogs and two pet sheep did not appear to have missed us at all when we got back. Chris was very easy to communicate with and his experience at house sitting really showed through. We would be more than happy to have Chris house sit again. Thanks again Chris.
 
ROY (Tapawera South Island, Jan 2023 - 3 weeks)
Chris is a super honest and genuine man who looked after our pets and home with utmost care and compassion. We would readily welcome you back to ours when we have our next adventure Chris!
 
DEBORAH (Katikati North Island, Nov 2022 - 2 weeks)
Thanks, Chris for taking such good care of the boys (2 chocky labs) enabling me to get to a few family days. I recommend Chris as a house/pet sitter and would happily have him sit again.

Chris has been like a dog whisperer with one of my dogs who is nervous of men! Fantastic. Felt confident leaving my 2 dogs. House was like i left it, cant tell he has been here! Will def ask him again. Thanks Chris.
 
SHARON (Paremata North Island, Sep 2021 - 4 days, 3 nights.)
Chris did a lovely job house sitting for us, looking after our 2 English staffys. The house was spotless on return and dogs happy. We are happy to recommend Chris, and will happily have him back in the future.
 
KIRSTY (Masterton North Island, Dec 2020 - 2 weeks 1 day)
Highly recommend Chris. My dogs were very well cared for and have asked him to come back again. Happy to take calls for references.
 
SHARON (Whitby North Island, Nov 2020 - 5 days)
No rating Highly recommend Chris to mind your pet and take care of your home. He gladly undertook to treat our diabetic old cat with daily injections- no small request. We were very impressed with the love and care he gave our boy and will be requesting his help again when we need to. Thankyou Chris!
M'LISS (Paraparaumu North Island, Feb 2020 - 4 weeks)
Chris looked after our house, and most importantly, our numerous pets wonderfully well. We would be very happy to have him house sit again and recommend him without hesitation.
 
JUDY (Lower Hutt North Island, Nov 2019 - 1 week 2 days)
We were first time house sitters for this sit, but Chris put us at ease. Chris is a likeable guy and looked after our home and cats well. We are now converts to having our home looked after by a house sitter.
 
CLARK (Island Bay North Island, Aug 2019 - 1 week 3 days)
Our animals are all fit and healthy after our time away. A little slow in answering txt's. Thanks and hope you enjoyed your house sitting stay.
 
ROLF (Blenheim South Island, Dec 2018 - 1 week 2 days)
No rating We had Chris house and petsit for us. We have 2 dogs with special requirements and a cat - so not any easy task! - but Chris did an excellent job. The pets were well cared for and the house was just as we had left it. Totally recommend Chris to take care of things for you will you are away.
KERRY (Kingsley Heights North Island, Jul 2018 - 1 week)
No rating Chris looked after our house and animals for 3 weeks he did an incredible job,the house was tidy and the dogs didn't seem that happy to see us when we returned home We would recommend Chris to anyone who is looking for a great house sitter
MOIRA (Warkworth North Island, Jun 2018 - 2 weeks 4 days)
No rating We arrived home to find Holly in excellent health having enjoyed her 2 weeks with Chris. So much so that she is looking for him still 4 days later!! We will certainly have Chris to stay again in our home and with Holly. We can highly recommend Chris as a housesitter/pet carer. Regards Jeff and Caville and little Holly ph 0274596028
JEFFREY (Timaru South Island, May 2018 - 2 weeks 3 days)
No rating Couldn't say enough good things about Chris. We came home to an immaculate house, wouldn't even know he'd been there. We had a couple of rogue goats that Chris fenced back in, and the odd awol sheep, that Chris sorted without issue. We'd happily have him back anytime!
HEIDI (Upper Plain North Island, Feb 2018 - 1 week)
No rating This was the First time we have ever used a House sitter, and were a little apprehensive trusting a stranger with our Home and furry children, but we found the perfect match in Chris. Chris came to meet us, and our Dogs prior to the sit, which laid all our minds at ease. We had regular updates while away, and came home to three very happy dogs, and a house that was cleaner than when we left it... We would highly recommend Chris to anyone wanting a friendly, helpful, mature, person to ... MORE
SHAWN (Waikanae North Island, Dec 2017 - 1 week 2 days)
No rating Chris was a great house sit. The house, dog and property were well looked after and we received regular updates that were reassuring and gave confidence that all was well. Totally recommend.
