I am a single,retired, responsible, honest and reliable House and Pet Sitter. I am also a non smoker.
I am an experienced Sitter both in Australia and International and I have references including a Police Check. I am listed with other Agencies.
Over the past twelve years I have house sat in Australia, NZ, UK, Ireland, Scotland Japan and now I am off to Europe and the UK once again to house and pet sit in both Germany and France. and England
2023 took me once again to the UK and also Sweden. . I have also travelled extensively to other places in the world including, USA, Canada, Europe, ,Asia and the South Pacific.

I enjoy the house sitting because I like to be part of a town and community as a traveller more so than a tourist.
I am fit and I like to walk and explore and travel on Public transport, shop in the local supermarket.
I enjoy meeting the locals and becoming part of their lifestyle.


I love to read, watch movies, garden and hobby paint. I enjoy my family and friends at every opportunity and I sing Jazz in a local cafe when I am not travelling.

I am retired from Professional Management Positions during a long working career in both New Zealand and Australia. I am a Kiwi born in Wellington . I moved to live in Australia in 2005.

I have my own home on an Island in South East QLD Australia and I look after my Home Owners Homes the way that I would look after my own.
I regard my house sits as a job, not just a place to stay and I am extremely grateful to my home owners for having me in their homes while they holiday. If it was not for these fabulous people I would not have been to the places I have been so lucky to visit and spend time there.

I love dogs and cats and have had both as pets of my own over the years, but I do not have any now because I am travelling and looking after yours. I have minded a lot of bigger dogs as well as smaller and really love to walk and so they get exercise and have fun with me. Over the past two plus years I have minded Golden Retrievers, Standard Poodles, Mastiffs, Collies, Labradors, Tibetan Spaniels, Shitzus to name a few.
I have minded cats from Rag Dolls and Maine Coons to 18 year old Tabbies.
I also look after dogs and fish.
I water your garden and your pot plants if requred and collect your mail etc.

I am a Kiwi living here in Aussie and have been here 16 years this coming October.

I have a lot of friends in NZ but few family members now as they are living in Aussie and my parents both passed away.
I would dearly love to come back home every now and then plus to visit places that I have never seen.
New Zealand is such a beautiful country and will always be in my heart.
I have travelled to a lot of places in NZ but only ever lived and worked in the North Island. I was born in Wellington.
I look forward to meeting wonderful pets and their owners in New Zealand.
I look forward to providing homeowners with a worry free break away.
