Safe as houses (horses, cats, dogs, small animals)

40, Librarian

Kia ora I'm Tom!

I’m currently based in Auckland and it will be likely I can only house sit in the city or nearby suburbs unless schedules permit. With enough months notice I could potentially sit in other North Island cities or the South Island.

I'd be delighted to look after your home as if it was my own and take care of your pets so they are safe and sound when you return.


I work from home so during the day I’d be at home for your pets company and supervision, that’s depending on the length of the sit and how much company your pets need.

I have experience both as a home owner and pet dad.

Growing up I had horses, and as an adult have had small animals from guinea pigs, to house rabbits to small dogs and cats, even tropical fish. I know what's normal behaviour and what needs attention.

As a teenager my first school holiday work was on a small farm in charge of the bobby calves.

And in recent years have looked after a house cow even hand milked.

I don't smoke and have lived in different ways in large suburban houses to more sustainable settings with solar power.

Looking forward to meeting your loved pets!


Cheers
Tom

Tom's communication pre house sit and during was exceptional. With a dog with special medical needs, it gave me a peace of mind. My dog was looked after just as I would. The house was well looked after and he even coped with a water leak (which he organised the repair of). Overall I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Tom and would have him back in a heart beat to look after my pet and house.

It was great to have Tom back and so easy. Hudson definitely gave him a big welcoming back tail wag and lick! Once again full confidence that the house and Hudson (more importantly) were well looked after.. Wouldn't hesitate to have Tom back again.

We are so pleased with our house sitting experience with Tom and Matt. Excellent communication both in preparation of the sit and during. They went above and beyond with the care of our home and animals. We would be thrilled to have them sit for us again any time!
