Our home

We have a comfortable 3bd home, large kitchen, bathroom, separate toilet. We have an indoor fire and an outdoor bathtub and spa.

The property is 1 hectare, there are fruit trees and fenced paddocks with some electric fences. Extensive gardens but will not require any care. Bodhi is required to stay within a boundary fence.

favoriteWhat we love about our area

We are situated 3km from Raglan town, a very short drive where you can get all the necessity's. The coffee spots closer to home are The Hut - Rangitahi and Raglan West, for Raglan Roast. We are also pretty close to Ngaranui Beach (main beach) Riri Kereopa Memorial Drive beaches.

I had a wonderful time looking after Bohdi over Easter! What a sweet and playful boy, even if sometimes a lil overexcited out and about. Liz & Josh's home was a great place to hangout. Located close to the beaches and only a short drive to the shops. Great comms and Liz made things easy to understand over WhatsApp before I arrived. Thanks again guys!
We had an amazing experience pet sitting for Liz and Josh! Their dog Bodhi is so sweet. We loved spending time with him. He is super cute! Liz and Josh have a beautiful house. It’s located conveniently close the city and beaches, but far enough so it’s quiet and tranquil. Thank you so much for having us!
It was a pleasure house sitting Liz's and Josh lovely house. Bohdi was a pleasure to look after. He is a great dog with a lovely personality and temperament. The house is in a awesome location and the view is amazing. Communication with liz was simple and easy. I had a great time.
House was beautiful and had good communication with the owners throughout my stay. No complaints!
Had the best time with Bodhi, he is so full of energy and personality but also loves relaxing in the sun after a walk Thanks for having me Liz
Bodhi is an adorable puppy who loves attention and playing with anyone around:) he wakes up early in the morning so if you don't like early mornings, be prepared for surprises from him:P he is very energetic, so i usually took him for a walk in the morning, then he is okay with chilling on the couch or on the terrace (somewhere around you or where he can see you). He is still a puppy, not comfortable with being left alone but he's very intelligent. The house is spacious, comfortable, right on ...

Bodhi is a very cute, high energy dog. The first day he was very anxious to be alone but after that he started to understand my routine. I found he was most relaxed with 2-3 walks a day and responds to commands if you have treats! He has a lovely personality and is very friendly with other dogs and people. He is used to people being around and I found he was very content if he could see me while I worked or read my book, rather than out of sight. I would recommend to housesitters who like to be ...

I would recommend to housesitters who like to be active during the day and who are familiar with energetic dogs. Also don't leave any belongings around, he likes to chew and play with new items if he's left alone. Overall, a good experience with Bodhi and a lovely house..

Bodhi is a very playful dog who wants to say hi to everyone he sees. He is very friendly and loves taking a nap during the day. The house has everything we needed during the pet sit. The location is right in front of the bay and we enjoyed the view. Communication with Elizabeth and Josh was a breeze.
Really enjoyed my sit with Bodhi, beautiful location on the waterfront in Raglan. Bodhi is still a puppy and fill of energy, the cuddliest dog i have ever met and is instantly everyone's friends when out and about. I really enjoyed my time with him and he was really well behaved for a puppy too! Liz and Josh were great on comms the whole time and look forward to house sitting again in the future if needed :)
