64, Consultant and student

69, Retired entrepreneur

We are a mature married couple who own our own home in Wellington. I’ve been doing a degree in fine arts at Otago. We were commuting but missed each other too much so Peter has moved to Dunedin for the remainder of my study. I’m taking the first half of 2024 off study, so we’re flexible with place and dates.

We are keen pet lovers, especially cats and dogs. An added bonus is our flexible timetable that means we are home a lot and can keep them company.

I’m very inspired by visual beauty and would leave your house as clean and beautiful as when we arrive, or better. I also love tending a vegetable/herb garden. Peter has worked with residential and commercial property in different capacities and would bring his experienced eye to overseeing the maintenance of your property if needed.

We’ve been housesitting since December 2022 and we just love it. We have also been tenants in Dunedin, have had housesitters in our own home in Wellington and are now renting it out, so we know how important it is to be able to trust the people living in it. Trustworthiness of both parties is super important to us. We'd be happy to provide character references and referee contacts.

We’re looking for a home that is warm and light, has afternoon sun, is quiet, clean and tidy. We’re available till the end of 2024.

Looking forward to hearing from you if you think we’d be a good fit for you, your pet(s) and your home.

We were able to meet Judith and Peter the day before we left to show them the details of our house, dog, cat and heifers and farm. We instantly bonded with this lovely couple and as expected they did a wonderful job. Communication was excellent, lots of pics of happy animals. The house was left spotless. They had to overcome a couple of minor heifer crises on our lifestyle block which they did with aplomb. We would have them back anytime. Five star people.

We were so lucky to have Judith and Peter stay at our place, they took amazing care of everything including our dog. Their communication was just right, whenever I was wondering how things were going a message would pop up. Thanks so much!

The animals were very happy and the house was clean when we arrived home. We had updates throughout the stay to let us know how everyone was doing. Overall a great experience and we would definitely invite Judith and Peter back.

Judith & Peter were absolutely amazing. They looked after our home and pets perfectly. We have booked them for another sit as well. Do not hesitate to have Judith & Peter in your home - they are absolutely amazing and so organised. We felt totally relaxed knowing they were looking after things at home. Our pets just loved them!!
 
WENDY & SHANE (Paraparaumu North Island, Feb 2024 - 6 nights)
This was my first time using house sitters and Judith and Peter made it a great first experience. They were really helpful in the lead up, sent regular updates while I was away and left the place spotless. Luna, our cat, obviously loved them evidenced by all the photos of her snuggling up. She was happy and relaxed when we got home. They also did a great job of looking after all my houseplants and the garden, even doing some weeding for me. Peter went above and beyond by ... MORE

I was lucky to find Judith and Peter who were able to look after my Golden Retriever and house sit over the Christmas period. When I returned,I found the house very tidy as I had left it and a happy dog who had been walked at least once daily . I was sent regular updates as well as photos and a short video of Peter playing with Kira. All good, thank you.

Lovely people! Took great care of our ageing dog and house - even took on some of the garden. Regular updates while we were away so we could relax and enjoy our time away. Thanks so much. Great to come home to a lovely clean home and a happy dog. Thoroughly recommend these guys.
 
GRAEME (Dunedin South Island, Oct 2023 - 2 months 1 week)
I highly recommend Judith and Peter as trusted house sitters. They took perfect care of our newly renovated home and treated our animals as their own (the dogs were depressed when they left!). Their friendly communication during our time away meant we felt at ease knowing our pets were happy and well cared for, and our home was immaculate on our return. Look no further, you won’t find better house sitters!
 
LIZZ (St Clair , Sep 2023 - 3 weeks)
Judith and Peter were amazing. They looked after our home and our cat wonderfully. They kept in touch with us, giving us updates on how our cat was settling in with them. This was very much appreciated. On our return everything was in perfect condition, just as we had left it. As this was the first time we hired house sitters we were a little nervous but we need not have worried. Judith and Peter are top class and we would have no hesitation in having them look after our home again. They ... MORE

Judith & Peter did an excellent job of looking after our dog. (In fact i think he now misses them). The house was well looked after and they communicated regularly with us while we were away. We would have no trouble recommending them and would happily have them back again
