Jade & Daniel

Hello!

We’re Jade and Daniel, a dependable and animal-loving couple with previous house-sitting experience.
Over the past few years, we’ve had the pleasure of caring for a variety of homes and pets, from cuddly cats to energetic dogs, chickens, axolotls, and even doves.

After a year of travel, we’re excited to return to Auckland to reconnect with our families and save for a home (and finally adopt some pets!). In the meantime, we’d love to help care for your home and pets.


Why Choose Us:

- We understand that each pet has its own personality and needs. Whether your dog thrives on long walks and playtime or your cat prefers quiet companionship, we’ll make sure they get the attention and care they’re used to.

- We’re both experienced in administering medication to animals (including external and oral pills or syringes). We believe in balancing discipline with plenty of affection, so your pets will feel safe and loved.

- We both love the outdoors and hiking. This means we’ll keep your dogs happy and well-exercised with plenty of walks and playtime.

- Both of our jobs allow us to work from home at different times, with Jade spending the majority of her time at home and Dan spending most afternoons at home. This means we’re flexible and can easily adapt to different routines.

- Dan grew up on a small farm and is experienced in gardening and maintaining property, which means your home is in good hands too. He’s a construction surveyor by trade, and together we’re well-equipped to handle any small household tasks that might come up. Whether it’s watering plants, taking care of the garden, mowing lawns, or general upkeep, we’ll keep your home in great shape.



What You Can Expect From Us:

- Tailored care for your pets: feeding, walks, playtime, and any necessary medical attention (medications, special diets, etc.)

- Attentive home and garden care: keeping your home clean, secure, and well-maintained, including any gardening or minor repairs.

- Regular updates and photos of your pets to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

- We are happy to provide our own linen for the duration of our stay, knowing that you probably won't feel like doing extra washing when you return home.

- We know that holiday plans can change at the last minute, so between the two of us, we can be flexible for additional days on either side of the house sitting period upon request.


We’re here to make your time away stress-free, ensuring your home and pets are looked after with the same care we’d give our own. We are always happy to discuss any specific needs or routines your pets have.

If you think we’d be a good fit, please don’t hesitate to get in touch! :)
