60, Retired from full time work committments
Hi there. Thanks for looking at my profile.
I am a mature, single female - just hit the big SIXTY! that enjoys and appreciates life, meeting people and travel (particularly seeing our own beautiful Aotearoa). I am an honest and trustworthy person that prides myself on being reliable.
I have recently taken the step to semi-retire from my government job - I simply wanted to have my time back as my own ;). I was employed with the Dept of Corrections for the past 19 years, and prior to that have had careers in Banking and Policing.
While I base myself in the Manawatu area - I am open and keen to consider housesits a bit further afield, given I no longer need to take my job into consideration. I enjoy reading, cooking (and eating!), walking, love listening to podcasts, knitting and spending time with my lovely granddaughters.
So why be a house-sitter? Well, it simply offers me a lifestyle - one that gives me the feeling of freedom, choice and simplicity. I get to live in different communities, meet people (like you and your family) and experience life in a different way. I have been housesitting for 3 years now - and still really enjoy it. I have done a number of repeats sits - with several of the people who have left reviews, and I have just completed a lengthy sit (17 months) while the owners are overseas; hence the limited number of reviews posted.
I am happy to care for smaller dogs - I don't have a lot of experience with large dogs so not confident with them sorry, enjoy cats and love chickens.
I have always been house-proud so will keep you home clean and tidy and I will respect it. I am more than happy to mow lawns etc. to keep your property looking good. Being entrusted with someone's home and their pets is a responsibility to be taken very seriously - and I do. I take great pride in having families return to their home to find everything as they left it and their pets happy and healthy.
Well, I hope that gives you an idea of who I am and whether I am a "good fit" for your needs. Thanks for reading my profile and maybe we will be talking soon.
P.S. I am a non-smoker, non-vaper.
Ngaire
