Responsible Trustworthy Kiwis

58, Semi retired landscaper

59, Teacher

We are a couple in our fifties who are both fit, healthy and active.
We own our own property and like the freedom of being able to visit different areas while housesitting.

AJ is a semi retired landscaper who is able to be at home often during the day to keep your fur babies company and your property secure.

Tali is a retired primary school principal.
Seeking a change in life she has retrained as a special needs teacher.

We are both clean, tidy, honest (with recent police clearances), fully vaccinated, non smokers and are very reliable. We enjoy a quiet life preferring to be at home or visiting local cafes and beaches. We are also physically active and like to go for daily walks.

We have owned and cared for cats over a number of years and can assure you that your pets will be loved and looked after well, while you are away.

We have owned multiple properties and understand how important it is to choose the right house sitters. AJ has worked in the building/landscaping industry and is an excellent all round handy man.

We are very security conscious and will ensure that your home and belongings are cared for accordingly in your absence.
We take pride in any task we take on and will ensure that your house and grounds are maintained to a high standard.

We look forward to hearing from you.

AJ and Tali have just done a 6 night sit for us and we were extremely pleased with the way they took care of our property and our cat Libby. They are a very professional and friendly couple who left the house spotlessly clean and also mowed our lawn. We very much look forward to them becoming our regular sitters whenever we need them.

AJ and Tali were excellent house sitters. I came home to a clean and tidy house, happy cat, and milk and chocolates in the fridge. AJ was excellent about sending photos of the cat every couple of days--I could tell she was in good hands. (The four stars on the garden instead of five is only because the silverbeet was looking limp--otherwise everything got watered, and I told them not to bother with weeds.) I hope to have them back in the future.

AJ & Tali looked after our home and our cat marvellously over the Christmas-New Year holiday! It was especially good to return home to find everything immaculately clean and tidy. We warmly recommend them as house-sitters.

No rating AJ and Toli looked after my house and cat from 5th September until 9th October this year while I was in Europe. They looked after the property very well and with great respect. My cat, was very well looked after and I am sure that he was sorry to see them go, he got lots of attention! I would be happy to have AJ and Toli back again and to recommend them.

No rating AJ and Tali housesat for us for two months, looking after our two cats, fish and garden. We were absolutely delighted with the care they took of the place and of the cats. The house was immaculate when we returned. We would highly recommend them and hope to be able to use their services in the future.

No rating AJ and Tali looked after my house and cat for 4 weeks in June. I returned home to an immaculate house and garden and a very contented cat. The milk, bread and eggs were very welcome, also a box of chocolates. I would not hesitate to recommend AJ and Tali A's house sitters. Thanks to you both.
TERESA (Raumati Beach North Island, Jun 2018 - 4 weeks)
No rating AJ and Tali looked after our house and cats for 9 weeks. There were no problems while we were away, and upon our return the cats were happy and healthy, the house immaculately clean, lawns mown and bread, milk and chocolates in the fridge(which was most welcome as we returned home at 1am starving). I would have no hesitation in using them again and recommending their services to others. Thanks guys.

No rating talia and AJ kindly housesat for us for six weeks sept to October. We chose them as we have a unique Bengal girl. She can't be put in a cattery due to high stress. They took fabulous care of her. They treated our home like their own. The house was spotless on our return with milk bread and treats. That was so nice. Would recommend them for house sitting for you and have absolute peace of mind. We were very pleased. Thanks guys awesome couple. Sarah and Alan Judd
ALAN AND SARAH JUDD (Peka Peka North Island, Aug 2017 - 1 month 1 week)
No rating I cannot speak highly enough of the care Tali & AJ have taken of my home, garden and Merlin, the cat, while I have been away for 10 weeks. I returned to find my home in an immaculate condition and the edges to my lawn so much straighter! Merlin was much fatter and certainly very content. Thank you both. I really appreciated the guest bed being freshly made and all the bed linen and towels etc being washed. My 'tricky' indoor plants were alive and well! A huge bonus for me was being able ... MORE

No rating Hi AJ & Ali I must say our house and gardens were absolutely first Chas when we arrived back. Thanks so much for your care and attention the house was clean and tidy and I'm not sure if Nelson really wanted to see me I think he missed you but he sure looked a happy dog. Thanks again when we next travel we will be in touch. All the best for your next sit. Please feel free to use us as a reference I will be happy to talk to your future sits. Cheers Graeme an Gaelle
