Friendly & Capable House/Pet Sitter

50, Business coach

I am a single, self employed business coach / consultant with one adult daughter now overseas. I love to travel and have the ability to do much of my work remotely so have decided to put all my belongings in storage for a while and enjoy some flexibility / variety in where I live.

I've been house/pet sitting now for the past 2 years and loving the opportunity to live in different places, meet different people and have the joy of caring for various pets without the long term/forever responsibility.
Previously, I also house sat for over a year at a range of short term house sits in Cape Town, South Africa.

I am reliable, capable and respectful and will care for your home, plants and pets as if they are my own. Many of the people & pets I've met have become friends, with many repeat sits & referrals.

I am predominantly based in the South Island, although will consider sits in the North Island if they fit with other commitments.

Jacqui was fantastic and all that we hoped she would be. Great communication and she looked after our house and pet Sasha wonderfully. House was lovely and clean when we returned after 3 weeks. I think Sasha is missing her now. Would definitely use Jacqui again.

On our first meeting with Jacqui we were so impressed with her positivity and her genuine desire to ensure our house was well looked after. Jacqui has looked after our house and garden for four and a half months and treated it like her own home. Her communication was measured and clearly revealed her care and thoughtfullness.

That's a lovely endorsement, thank you Sara. As I've already said, it was a pleasure and I'd happily housesit for you again. All the best, Jacqui
Jacqui looked after my house and my 12 year old chocolate spoodle, Toby, while I travelled overseas for 5 weeks. Contact with her was excellent and I felt happy to leave knowing the house and Toby would be in great hands. She was happy to take Toby to an appointment to the groomers and a to the vet. On my return you could tell a special bond had formed between Toby and Jacqui and the house was immaculate. Jacqui was an amazing house/dog sitter and a lovely person to chat to. I do hope she ...

Thanks Tania. Let me know when you have dates in mind, and if I'm available, I'd love to house/Toby sit again. xx
Jacqui is professional, practical and easy to wifi with. She is highly reliable and communicates promptly and clearly. My cat was very relaxed when I got home from 6 days away, so clearly he had been well cared for by Jacqui, as were my potplants well tended. My home was spotless when I hot home. Will definitely call in Jacqui again if Bud needs a sitter Thank you, Jacqui...worry-free service!!

We couldn't have asked for a better stand in 'Mom' for our girls. Thank you Jacqui we are very fortunate to have you and will certainly make use of you again. To all the dog lovers out there, I can highly recommend Jacqui, she is the best by far. You are guaranteed peace of mind that your 'babies' are in excellent hands.

Jacqui was a effective communicator right from the get go. She was a committed , loving , caring , responsible pet sitter and tidy with the house. My dog Ash was so happy with Jacqui he didn't bother to get up and greet me when I returned. !! A very happy pooch. I would have no hesitation recommending Jacqui. xx
