The Welsh Wanderer

22, Freelance marketing assistant

Kia ora/helo/hello,

My name is Lauren and I am a 22 year old female from South Wales in the United Kingdom. I am visiting New Zealand on a working holiday visa, and to allow me to save more money, meet new people (and their gorgeous pets), and visit as many places as possible, I would love to do some house/pet sitting!

I have a degree in English Literature and History from the University of Exeter, I have several years experience working in retail, and have worked in a student experience focused role at the university I graduated from. I love to travel and I am very creative, I love reading, drawing, scrapbooking, journaling, and crocheting. Also, I am a non-smoker.

I have been in New Zealand since September 2023 and stayed with family in Whanganui until the end of February, and since then I have been travelling and exploring this beautiful country. I am planning to stay in New Zealand until roughly December 2024 and be back home in the UK just in time for Christmas.

I do not have a driver's license and rely on public transport or cycling to get around, so would prefer housesits that are in close proximity to public transport or are walkable from shops and other facilities.

While I grew up with no pets (my family have adopted two cats since I have been in New Zealand!), I love all animals and have experience looking after cats, dogs, and fish, and would love to look after any animals.

If you have a housesitting opportunity that you think would suit me, please do not hesitate to get in touch. I am happy to answer any questions and give anymore information that is requested. References are available on my account but I'm more than happy to provide more.

Thank you for looking at my profile and considering me as a sitter.

Lauren was terrific! She communicated clearly and promptly, treated the house with care, and (most important of all) looked after our elderly dog just like we do. We're looking forward to having her back in a few months' time.

Lauren is an engaging and adventurous international traveller. She is a terrific communicator and totally met the needs of our cat and dog, while we were on our own journey. Lauren was able to give us that sense of assurance that our loved animals were in very good hands. Thank you for your time and care. Sincerely, the Pilko Mob

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
