Love and Integrity

61, Relief ECE Teacher (part-time)

Kia ora, my name is Diane.

Born and bred in the Wairarapa I grew up at Mt Bruce at the local schoolhouse with 3 siblings, 2 cats, many chooks and a flock of 26 sheep.

After a working life encompassing fashion, real estate, building industry and law, ten years ago I followed my passion and became a kindergarten teacher. I work part-time so will be around to keep your animals company and also do cleaning duties at local sports club so, rest assured, your house will be tidy upon your return.

My interests include squash, 10 pin bowling, reading and crossword puzzles. Two major accomplishments in my life are becoming a mother - my "baby" is now 24 and lives in Wellington - and sailing the South Pacific for a year on an 11 mt yacht, despite sea sickness!

After renting the same house in Lansdowne since 2007, it was time to move on when the owner sold. House sitting allows opportunity to save money while helping families to have a holiday of their own with peace of mind.

I'm honest, reliable and highly organised so your home and pets will be cared for with love and integrity.

Diane was really helpful and came over beforehand to meet all our pets and again to collect a key. We had a few parcels delivered whilst we were away, which Diane kindly brought in/dealt with. The house was left clean and tidy; Diane even put fresh sheets on the bed for us. Thank you!

Thank you so much Diane. It was awesome to come home after 5 weeks to happy animals and a lovely clean house. You did an amazing job and I am happy, that all the new born animals (goslings and lambs) are so well. Tobi and I were pleased that you enjoyed your stay, love to have you back anytime, much appreciated! All the best and take care!

The house was well looked after and the cats very happy and relaxed when we got home. Diane kept in touch and sent us photos of the kitties. Would definitely recommend her.
