Veda & Craig

Hello! We view being entrusted with your pets and home as a real privilege.
We are quiet living people, smoke free and drug free. We will keep your animals safe and your home secure.
We are an honest and respectful couple who love animals of all sorts!
Throughout our married life we have shared over 30+ years with dogs, cats, rabbits, hens and ducks.

Animals are an important part of life and family, we understand that every loving pet parent wants someone to give their pets the warmth and attention they deserve.
We would love to do that for you!
We see house sttting as a perfect way to enjoy beautiful NZ with the bonus of pets for company :)

We are more than happy to supply you with contact details for our referees.

We have had numerous memorable experiences sitting pets and homes for friends and family, both short and long term.
We have also rented many holiday homes over the years and can happily supply our reviews from them. (see photos)

Craig was brought up on a farm in South Canterbury and now is a well seasoned fencer.
He has a 1946 Ford Jailbar pickup he has worked on over the years. He is a bit of a handyman around the place and patiently endures my "important" lists of jobs around home and garden. "Happy wife, happy life" isn't that how the saying goes!

I was also brought up in South Canterbury .
I have worked part time and been a stay at home Mum, but these days my time is my own (enjoying being Grammy of four).

My hobbies have included gardening, sewing, knitting and the outdoors.

If you decide to place your home and pets in our hands we would whole-heartedly take the best possible care of them for you, so you are able to fully relax during your time away.

We look forward to hearing from you!
Warm regards,
~ Craig and Veda ~
