Renowned Pet Lover

52, Therapist

Hi there,

I'm an avid animal lover, especially cats and have been pet sitting for friends and family for many years. I have had a few amazing 8 - 10 week cat-sits from Kiwi Housesitters with happy home owners and pets, plus heaps of great reviews for other sits on here.

I'm house proud and look after homes and gardens like they're my own. I have a reputation of leaving the house clean, tidy and homely on your return.

I'd love to look after your home, beloved pets and hearth!

This was our first try with Kiwi house sitters, and Mel has been AWESOME! It couldn't have been any better: She communicated very well (before, during and after the sit), she helped finding a document that I forgot when we were away, and left the house incredibly clean for us to come back to. I'm sure our two cats enjoyed her stay, and we would love to see her back on our next trip.

Melanie looked after our cat, fish, house and garden in Wellington for 5 weeks. A lovely person, great communicator, and we came home to a well cared for home, and a happy cat! Highly recommended. Thanks for taking such good care of our place and pets Melanie, and it was lovely to get regular updates and photos while we were travelling.

Fabulous Lady, very friendly and caring. We received daily updates from her along with photos of Leo our Labradoodle. Our home and garden was well cared for. Even arrived home with all the laundry done and immaculate home. Thank You Melanie, totally recommend you for house sitting.
 
JOHN (Orewa North Island, Nov 2023 - 2 weeks)
We returned home to a lovely tidy , clean house and a very happy princess 😺 of a cat who had obviously been thoroughly spoilt. All our pot plants were thriving beautifully and we couldn’t be more happy to recommend Melanie to look after your home , plants and pets.

EMMA (Te Atatu Peninsula North Island, Nov 2022)
Mel was absolutely fantastic! We were very happy with the level of care, communication and cleanliness in our house. We came home to a very relaxed, happy cat. We would highly recommend, and absolutely use her services again. Thanks Mel.
 
MELISSA (Wattle Downs North Island, Apr 2021 - 1 week)
Mel was fabulous with my fur baby. I got photos and videos every day. Pepe loves her I think. I got the cold shoulder when I got home, he was quite happy with Mel thank you very much! House was in perfect condition when I got home, with sheets and towels already dry on the line, but it's really all about a happy fur baby for me.

Melanie is the perfect house and cat sitter for Mr Basil Black. She is a prompt and excellent communicator and clearly genuinely enjoyed Basil. Our house was perfect on return and she had hung out the sheets. We have already booked Melanie again for our next holiday.

Mel is absolutely faultless! Didn't want to review her vid I want her all for myself! Highly recommend, happy to provide further references on request.
 
SANDY (St Heliers North Island, May 2020)
Melanie went over and above to take care of my cat Feeby and our house while we were away for 10 weeks. The house was spotless when we returned and our cat was very happy and healthy. Melanie sent regular videos and photos of Feeby, and updates on any issues that came up at the house. This was my first time using kiwi house sitters so I was very anxious, we needed to find someone asap on very short notice. Melanie is very trustworthy and we were very blessed to have found her. I would 100 % ... MORE

No rating Melanie is the best! What a wonderful housesitter. We were kept updated with regular pics and videos of our cat. She left our house spotlessly clean and kept our garden going. I will ask her to housesit for us again and highly recommend her as a housesitter. Thanks Melanie!

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
