Tania Graham-Brown

34, Recruitment consultant

I am working for myself as a recruitment consultant in technology. I am super passionate about health and fitness and live a vegan lifestyle without alcohol. I teach breathwork for performance and stress mitigation as well as run fitness retreats around the country and overseas. Last year I decided to move into bus life to lessen my impact on the environment and free myself up to explore the country I live in and be more mobile to do that. I am also a photographer and will happily send heaps of photo updates as we go :)

I decided house sitting would be a great way to help others whilst allowing me my animal fix as I'm a huge animal lover.

I know how daunting it must be to trust a stranger to look after your home and loved ones so I can promise to keep you reassured of their wellbeing whilst you're away and communicate as and when you would like!

I am someone that loves a simple and quiet life that allows me to get outside and in nature so you can also be assured your home will be looked after with care and respect and any energetic dogs will be well walked!

Great first experience using a house sitter! Highly recommend Tania, she had great communication throughout the week and went above and beyond such as taking the rubbish out and collecting parcels that had been delivered. Thank you Tania, we hope to have you house sit again 😊

Thank you guys that means a lot :) til next time
A huge thank you to Tania who was able to help us last minute when our family sitter fell through. Tania did a wonderful job looking after our Pepper!. Communication was awesome. Would highly recommend Tania to you.

Thanks so much Mel. Pepper was a total delight :)
What a great first go with abhouse sitter. Tania was the perfect house guest and dog sitter. Our boy took instantaneously to her, they were best buddies from day one. Great coms, immaculate and just a very good person. We will do it again for sure.
 
JOHN (Karitane South Island, Jul 2023 - 10 days)
:) thank you John. Was a delight
Tania was an absolute pleasure to deal with, her communication was excellent, friendly and super responsive. She was also really proactive with sending me updates on Zooey which gave us peace of mind. Was lovely coming home to a clean, tidy house, happy cat and even some delicious goodies left for us in the fridge. Thanks Tania.
 
JENNIFER (Wanaka South Island, Apr 2023 - 10 days)
Tania was very efficient. Sent through regular photos of our dog. We had to come home early and it was no problem for her to accomadate the change
 
GAYE (Warkworth North Island, Nov 2022 - 7 days)
Tania instantly made me feel at ease leaving Rocky with her. She is so friendly and warm and easy to get to know. She communicated so well with me, I never had to worry about rocky at any part of our holiday as she provided me with little updates and pictures. Another bonus was coming home to home backed cookies! Thanks again Tania, you are welcome here any time :)
 
HANNAH (Waimauku North Island, Jan 2021 - 1 week 5 days)
You're so lovely, that must mean they were edible so I'm stoked all round :)
This was my first experience of using Kiwihousesitters, in particular for our cat. Unfortunately it transpired that Tanya allowed a dog in the house without our knowledge, with the result that our cat wouldn't come inside on our return. Cleanliness and garden care were moderate at best.

Whilst I completely put my hands up to a lapse of judgement in letting a friends dog in on a few occasions which I explained my reasons for Offline but agree I should have asked you about first, I do think the comments pertaining to the state of the house and garden as unfair as I watered the ...

Tania communicated very well while I was away & sent photos & videos of Max having fun. Although Max was a little subdued when i returned, he soon returned to his normal enthusiastic self. Unfortunately Tania had forgotten to water the flowering garden pots, as I had requested, so they suffered in the hot weather.
 
CAROLE (Bryndwr South Island, Nov 2020 - 3 days)
Thanks Carole, apologies for the plants. To be fair I watered them the first morning and had thought they would be ok as it was only a few day's but my apologies that they suffered. It was a heat wave and I should have known better. As mentioned in our correspondence still unsure about Max's ... MORE
Tania is really lovely and friendly. She looked after our animals and home so well :). Our dogs are full on and she was so great with them! The house was really clean we we got back which was nice. She kept in touch, letting us know how the animals were too. Thanks so much Tania!!
 
JOHANNA (South Brighton South Island, Jul 2020 - 2 days)
Thanks Tania for the great house sit. Pets and house well cared for, and excellent communication.
 
ALISON (Kumeu North Island, Jun 2020 - 4 days)
Tania was amazing. She came on board last minute when my other dog sitters fell through. And was flexible with my moving dates. She kept me updated with pictures and videos and daily doggy antics, which I loved. They were so well cared for. Lots of walks and cuddles and they were very relaxed when I got back. I trusted her completely with the pups. I will be asking Tania to house/dog sit for me again, for sure
 
LUANNE (CHRISTCHURCH South Island, Jun 2020 - 12 days)
No rating Tania did a great job of looking after my rather energetic and attention seeking dog - and my thousands of native plant seedlings. I had to return from overseas early due to the coronavirus and Tania was able to fit in with that fine. And the house was clean and tidy - thanks
JON (Waitetuna Raglan North Island, Mar 2020 - 2 weeks)
Tania was a great house sitter, made me feel at ease leaving or dog and cat in her capable hands. She kept in contact and everything was lovely and tidy when we arrived home. Highly recommend her :-D
 
KIM (Auckland North Island, Feb 2020 - 2 days)
This was my first house sitting experience and I certainly struck gold. Can't recommend Tania highly enough - so caring and responsible. Tania, all the very best for the road ahead x
