Hello Dear Homeowners,

I hope this letter finds you well. My name is Tian and I am writing to express my interest in being your trusted housesitter. I am a clean and tidy individual who loves spending time with pets, such as cuddling cats and walking dogs.

As a student of Early Childhood Education studying from a distance, I have a lot of time to dedicate to your pets and ensure they receive the love and attention they deserve. I am confident in my ability to be a responsible and trustworthy housesitter for several reasons:

-I have experience in caring for pets with various needs, personalities, and health levels.
-As I work from home, I have ample time to spend with your pets and ensure their comfort.
-I am skilled in maintaining a clean and tidy household, and I always strive to uphold the highest standards of cleanliness.
-I have a positive personality, am honest, easy-going, and maintain a quiet lifestyle. I do not smoke, take drugs, or drink excessively.
-I am good at communicating and will keep you updated on the well-being of your house and pets. This way, you can relax and enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss further, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.

Best regards,
Tian

Tian and Jing looked after our house and cat, Louie, for six weeks while we were on holiday overseas. We returned to an incredibly tidy home and happy cat. Tian is an excellent communicator, both before and during the housesit. He sent us updates and photos of Louie whilst we were away - which put our minds at ease. I would happily recommend Tian and Jing and would not hesitate to have them housesit for us again.
 
SOPHIE (Avondale North Island, Jun 2023 - 1 month 2 weeks)
Thank you, Sophie. Your warm house and adorable cat, Louie, provided me with a truly perfect living experience. Our interactions were easy and delightful, and I would be more than happy to take care of the cat and the house for you again in the future!
Definitely would recommend these sitters. My house was left clean and tidy and my cats were in great condition. Would love to have them again

BERNICE (Leamington North Island, Dec 2023 - 5 nights)
Tian and Jing house/petsat for us for one night and we were very happy :) Before the sit Tian sent through a thorough checklist of things to know about, so it was obvious that they were experienced sitters. They were great communicators and even though it was just a short sit, they sent photos and an update. We arrived home to a clean and tidy house. We felt very comfortable that our pets were in good hands and would absolutely have them back to housesit again. Highly recommend. Thank you ... MORE

We had Tian and Jing sit for 3 nights, great communication from start to finish, with photos sent as requested while we were away. House left extremely clean and tidy. We would highly recommend and use them again without a doubt. Thank you Tian & Jing
 
DEBS & ANTON (Nukuhau North Island, Jun 2023 - 3 days)
Thank you, Debs, for your recommendation letter. I thoroughly enjoyed my time spent with your four cats. I appreciate your generosity and hospitality, which allowed my girlfriend and me to create precious memories in Taupo. I would be more than happy to housesit for you again in the future!
Wonderful housesitters, caring and kind towards our old cat, great communication to organise the sit, left our house beautifully clean and tidy :-)
 
ROZ (Frankton South Island, Dec 2022 - 1 week)
Thank you, Roz, for your kind review. I thoroughly enjoyed housesitting for you and greatly appreciate this wonderful opportunity. Many thanks!
Tian and Jing took great care of my cat, including giving him daily medication. He was very calm and relaxed when I got home. I would happily ask Tian and Jing to house sit again. Thank you
 
MEGAN (Titirangi North Island, Nov 2022 - 1 week)
Tian and his partner looked after our home and beloved Mr Puss for one month while we were overseas. Throughout our travels, we got great updates and photos of a happy Mr Puss. He was treated like. a king, given belly rubs and even snuggled up for cuddles. We returned to a spotless house (even cleaner than before we left) and happy Mr Puss. We will 100% be using Tian again for future sits. Thanks so much!
 
CASSIDY (Te Atatu Peninsula North Island, Oct 2022 - 4 weeks)
Thank you, Cassidy, for your kind words. We had a great time with Mr Puss at your home!
Tian was an excellent Housesitter- he was careful to understand what we needed and very diligent. He kept us informed and looked after the hens well. He was a pleasure to deal with and have no hesitation to recommend others to him.
 
JULIE (Glen Eden North Island, Aug 2022 - 7 weeks)
Thank you, Julie! I enjoyed staying at your beautiful home and looking after the well-behaved chicken.
Tian house sat for us for 5 weeks and we were thoroughly impressed with his high standards. He is very respectful and takes house sitting very seriously. He met with me twice before the house sit to learn about us, the property and cat. He also has an in-depth list of questions which he requests you to complete, many questions I would never have thought about. To throw a spanner in the works for Tian, after arranging him to housesit we then bought a new property and moved in 2 days before our ... MORE
 
OLIVIA (One tree hill , Jul 2022 - 5 weeks)
Thank you, Olivia, for your kindness and generosity. Ninja is perhaps the most charming cat I have ever seen and I had a very good time with him!
Tian and his partner were great house sitters. He is really organised and takes house sitting very seriously ensuring he understands your requirements. He checked in with me regularly during the stay. My cat wasn't here during this stay but I would be more than happy to leave him in Tian's care in future. I would definitely recommend Tian and would be more than happy for him to house sit at mine again. Thanks Tian :)
 
VICKY (Mount Eden North Island, Jun 2022 - 3 weeks)
Thank you Vicky for your kind words. We enjoyed the housesitting experience in your lovely house!
Tian has a lot of experience house sitting and this was evident by his great and proactive communication. Before he arrived he sent us a prepared form of common questions and then took the time to visit us a few days before to learn about our house. Tian and his partner looked after our cats well, gave us unprompted regular updates while we were away, and then left the house very clean and tidy for our arrival home. I would highly recommend Tian as a house sitter.
 
KELVIN (Greenhithe North Island, Apr 2022 - 5 days)
I had a very good time at Kelvin's home. It is a big, clean house with a good view and a great garden. It is possibly my partner's favourite garden. Kelvin's cats are beautiful, shy and super cute. Thank you, Kelvin!
Would definitely recommend Tian for any future house sit. Tian always sent us photos of our cats and kept our house very clean over multiple weekends/weeks in a row. Thanks again Tian!
 
KYLENE (Grey Lynn North Island, Apr 2022 - 4 weeks)
Thank you, Kylene, for your kindness! I enjoyed my stay and wish you all the best!
Tian and Sylvia looked after our place for about 5 days and we couldn't be happier. The animals were healthy and well fed, the home left in an immaculate condition and no dramas whatsoever. Tian kept us informed by txt as to updates from time to time and he was extremely easy to communicate with. I recommend them wholeheartedly.
 
ROD (Henderson North Island, Mar 2022 - 5 days)
Thank you, Rod, for your kind reference. I enjoyed the stay and the unique "Pure New Zealand" style house. I wish you all the best, and have a great winter vacation!
Tian and his partner looked after our house and our wee fur baby cat very well. Our plans had changed and we needed a sitter urgently. Excellent communication and kept us updated regularly. Very thorough with how to look after the house and our pet requirements. We came home to one happy cat. Thanks so much x :)
 
ANNA (Te Atatu South North Island, Feb 2022 - 1 month 1 week)
Tian and his partner did an excellent job looking after our cat and our house for 3 weeks earlier this year. They were flexible and understanding of our situation and kept us updated with regular communications. They left the house clean and tidy and our cat well looked after. I would be glad to have them housesit again in the future.
 
TASHA (Sandringham North Island, Feb 2022 - 2 weeks 6 days)
Tian and his partner house sat for us over Christmas/New Years break while we were away. He was an amazing communicator, checking in every couple of weeks until the sit to make sure everything was still all good. He has a very kind and gentle demeanour about him, which makes for a very trustworthy character and helped to ensure we felt 100% safe and happy about him looking after our house and cats. He watered our plants, cleaned around the house and even cleaned my car inside and out which ... MORE
 
OLIVIA & ALEX (Horotiu North Island, Dec 2021 - 1 week)
Lovely gentleman, perfect communication, gentle trustworthy nature. Punctual, clean, kind and respectful. Would definitely recommend and have to look after house and cat again.
 
TIM (Kingsland North Island, Jul 2021 - 4 days)
Thank you, Tim, for your kind review. I had a lovely time at your home. Cat Maia is cute, and I enjoyed staying with her!
We appreciated Tian's services of animal and house sitting for us. It wasn't easy with a puppy. We have 2 dogs (1 is a puppy) and 2 cats. They were all cared for and kept safe in their own environment which was important to us. Tian gave us a daily updates and he is a good communicator.
 
KIM (Mission Bay , Apr 2021 - 5 days)
Thank you Kim for your kind response. I appreciate the opportunity to look after your lovely pets and beautiful house.
Tian was a great house sitter. His communication was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. He came over twice prior to the house sit which made us very comfortable. Tian took great care of Albert, our cat and he appeared to be very content on our return home. The gardens and house was immaculate and we were very grateful to not have to lift a finger when we got home. I can highly recommend Tian and look forward to having him sit for us again.
 
CHRISTINE (Te Atatu South North Island, Feb 2021 - 4 days)
Thank you very much, Christine, for your kind words. I truly enjoy the hs experience. Wish you have a good day!
I am very impressed with Tian right from the start I felt very comfortable and at ease for him to look after my cat & home. I was more than happy with the way the property was left - spotless & a happy cat. I can certainly recommend Tian to house sit for you.
 
LOUIS (Blockhouse Bay North Island, Feb 2020 - 1 week 2 days)
Tian was really good! He did what he was asked to do (around communication, pet and plant care) and left the house in same condition as received. He came to meet us before the sit and asked questions and wrote answers. Great! Thanks for the stay, Tian! And all the best for the future!
 
ANTONIETA (Auckland , Feb 2020 - 3 days)
Tian was very responsive when we asked to meet him and we found him easy to talk to and keen to provide what we needed. He had a great attention to detail regarding our elderly cat and instructions around her meals and medications. He sent regular brief reports by text. which was reassuring. He did a great job and we can recommend him.
 
TERRI (Auckland North Island, Jan 2020 - 8 nights)
Tian looked after our cat and dog, they were very happy when we returned, the house was left in great condition too, thanks Tian :O)
 
MAUREEN (Trentham North Island, Apr 2019 - 1 week)
Tian was a fabulous housesitter!! He went above and beyond and we felt very comfortable having him look after our house and our cat! Communication was excellent, and he was very thorough with sending through an agreement before hand. He sent us updates and reports while we were away and even kindly cleaned the house for us when we returned! We would highly recommend him!!! and can't wait to have him house sit again for us!
 
MICHELLE (Berhampore North Island, Feb 2019 - 2 days)
Tian was fantastic, I came home to a clean house (and car!) and best of all, 4 happy and relaxed pets. He went above and beyond, walking my 2 doodle dogs in a range of new places in nature, and it was great peace of mind receiving regular email updates and photos.
 
CLARE (Fairfield North Island, Jan 2019 - 1 week 1 day)
Tian took great care of our aged anxious cat Eric and house.He left the house in a very clean condition. His communication was impeccable from the start and he made extra effort to find out our precise needs before we went away through skype and in person. Tian updated us while we were away which meant that we could relax knowing that our beloved pet was in good hands. Tian clearly has affinity with animals with Eric comfortable enough to sit on his knee. No mean achievement for a cat who is ... MORE
 
PETER (Wellington , Dec 2018)
Tian is a very humble, respectful and conscientious young gentleman whom I would gladly have look after our Boyz again at any time and I would highly recommend him. As requested, Tian gave us weekly updates on how the boyz were getting on and despite our cats being extremely shy and weary of strangers, by the second week they were sleeping on his bed and quite comfortable around him.
 
JUAN & LUCILLE (Burswood North Island, Dec 2018 - 3 weeks)
