PAW MINDERS

64, RETIRED

68, RETIRED

Hi, we're two active retirees who lost our wee mate, 14yr old Cavoodle, Riley, last year. So we are now doing a bit of travelling before committing again. Meanwhile, we've been getting our "doggie fix" from minding dogs for our friends, neighbours and even a motor home park which included two samoyeds!
Prior to retiring, Ian has managed a Transport company and owned his own business and Pam has worked in the Airline Industry for the last 30 plus years. We both enjoy lots of outdoor exercise including dog walking, kayaking and mountain biking.
We can provide you with contacts for references if required, but be assured our own home and garden are kept extremely neat and tidy.
We have done some minding on the Aussie Housesitters site also.

I don’t think you could ever find house sitters that would be better than Ian and Pam. They are a wonderful couple. Nothing phased them - I left them sorting out a flooded dishwasher and a dog who was being treated for rat bait poison. I came back to a pristine house, washed bedding and they even cooked us a yummy dinner! The animals were beautifully looked after, lots of time on the beach and clearly lots of love. Communication was excellent including photos of the dog having fun. We parted as ... MORE

Pam and Ian were amazing! They cared for my pup Izzy so well that there were no behaviour issues when I got home! Other than missing her big walks and road trips in the motor home. Pam and Ian also went over and above with taking care of my home too. They kept me up to date with puppy photos and adventures. I am so glad to have met these lovely people and we will remain in contact for future adventures 😃💕

First rate sitters. Can’t say highly enough about the care BENJI received.. He was walked and loved, as we would care for him, Lawns done, bed made for our late arrival home, and kitchen and shower just gleaming. We certainly landed on our feet with Pam and Ian, and Garry who helped out also.. We will remain in touch.

Pam and Ian are amazing! The care and love they gave to our fur babies was incredible. They treated them as their own. The house was immaculate and everything was well cared for. Pam and Ian are great communicators and have quickly become part of our family. We highly recommend them unless we need them first. We wish them all the best on all their adventures.

Pam and Ian won the hearts of our boys and were the perfect sitters. They left our home immaculate and will be first on our list next time we need company for Bert and Ernie!! They easily fitted in with the Aotea locals and we are sure it won’t be long before we see them again. Thanks again Pam and Ian for your awesome sit !!!

Pam and Ian could not have been better! They were very prompt with their communication and took care of our house and beloved Lewi just as we would. We 100% recommend using Pam and Ian for your next house sit!

Thanks Ian and Pam. They came to our rescue and house sat for us at very short notice. We came home to happy pets and a lovely clean house. Great communication and honest people. We would have them back again and again. Thank you so much
