Pet/house compassionate carer

Hi there folks! I am a respectful, compassionate, proactive and caring person. I have owned and lived on a 5 hectare life style property. I am now exploring other areas of NZ living a minimalist life, and will potentially settle in a tiny house. On my life style property I had a dog, 3 cats, 2 pet pigs and 2 pet cows, and a huge garden, including purpose built raised garden beds ... growing organic vegetables. Sustainable living practice and building principles are important to me. I will look after your house and pets (or either), to the same level as my own, that is, with care, compassion and respect. I have worked in a voluntary capacity within community development. I am articulate and enjoy writing... educated to an honours level. My diet is healthy and I exercise on a daily basis.
I consider myself a cultivated house/pet sitter with 3 years experience now. I act with integrity, authenticity, appreciation and professionalism. When I travel to the North Island my request is that payment is made for my travelling costs.
Please feel free to collaborate with me on your needs for caring for your property/pets. I'm friendly and positive and would love to hear from you, whatever area of NZ you are from. Cheers, Jude.

10 out of 10 for lovely Jude. We were lucky enough to get her for a second house sit of nearly 4 months. Jude is so passionate about caring for your pets, your house and your garden. Nothing was too much to ask and Jude gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. What stands out is her ability to manage crisis situations. Our cat was very unwell but Jude took such good care of her that she made a full recovery. Jude just genuinely cares. Needless to say that the house and garden were ... MORE

Jude is a Gem, she was very helpful when arranging the sit, we had lots of contact in the lead up and during the sit period. She is a very friendly and approachable person and my pets (2 cats and 1 dog) absolutely loved her. I received regular updates from her during my trip away. My home was left immaculate and she even got some bread and milk in for us on our return. I can't recommend Jude highly enough.
 
JOANNE (Camborne North Island, Dec 2023 - 1 month 1 week)
Jude was a wonderful match for us and we couldn't speak more highly of her. She looked after our property, tended the gardens and was the best second mum for our Mr Ralph. We were in contact regularly and really enjoyed the photos and updates while away. Jude had lots of new veges planted so it was lovely to come home to picking ready produce. We would definitely recommend Jude and she would be our first choice next time we head away.

Jude is an amazing house sitter. She went above and beyond helping us watch over the house and our dog. She took excellent care of our yard, kept the house super clean and has great communication. We highly recommend her!!!
 
STEVE (Kerikeri North Island, Oct 2022 - 8 weeks)
Jude took care of our house and animals for six months and they couldn't have been in better hands! Jude took amazing care of our two older dogs. They were loved and looked after. We also have chickens and alpacas that Jude took excellent care of. The house was immaculate and in perfect condition when we returned and the property and animals were healthy and happy. Jude was a great communicator and knew just when to get in touch with us with any questions or concerns with the house, property or ... MORE

Jude did a great job looking after our house and our dog Lass while we were away. We came back to a beautifully clean and tidy house and lawn and a very fit and happy dog. All our very best wishes
 
ROY AND YVONNE (Tapawera South Island, Oct 2021 - 1 month 1 week)
Jude was an ideal house-sitter. While I was away she sent a couple of friendly updates. I returned a little early and she was accommodating about that. I got back to a happy, healthy cat and an immaculately clean house. I recommend her highly.
 
JAN (Nelson Central South Island, Apr 2021 - 1 month 1 week)
Jude was the best. We are so happy to have found her. Jude looked after our house and even our garden extremely well. It was a pleasure to come home after 2 months of travelling to find our property in an immaculate state. Jude also looked after our very demanding 14 years old cat beautifully. The cat looked healthy and happy when we got back and Jude kept us posted when there was a health concern and took care of it straight away. We experienced Jude as a very kind, caring and responsible ... MORE

I highly can recommend Jude as a house sitter. She has a lovely and warm personality. Our cat Tiger got lots of cuddles and will miss Jude. Our garden was very well cared for. You just noticed Jude loves her garden and animals. Right from the beginning I felt very comfortable and our communication was light and easy. She has a lovely sense of humor and will treat your home with respect. We will certainly stay in contact with Jude and will consider her any time again for the next house sit. ... MORE
