About Virginia & Doug
I am a retired personal assistant of many years experience. I have been working ever since I left school in a variety of administrative roles, including an 8 year stint in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia as a secretary at The King Faisal Specialist Hospital, and 3 years in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea as personal assistant to the Manager of the Australia New Zealand Banking Group. My husband Doug and I live in Milson, Palmerston North. I have held positions of responsibility and trust in all of my working life. I have also owned my own take away business when I lived in Auckland in the 80's. My husband is a retired pharmacist, who, during a 50 year professional career in pharmacy has owned his own pharmacy and also been employed for 10 years as a Medicines Control Officer in the Ministry of Health. We are a responsible, reliable couple who own our own home, which has a monitored alarm system. We are non smokers and are careful and secure house keepers so we know how to take care of your home. We have both been pet owners (cats and dogs) most of our adult lives, so we will know how to take care of your pets. (We are animal lovers). We are highly respectful of home owners and their possessions and are very aware of the importance of privacy, discretion and security, particularly with regards to looking after your house and your pets.We are in good health and both have current driver's licences. We have no Police record.
Why we want to house sit
Retirement now gives us the freedom to travel, and pet/house sitting enables us to experience many environments. We want to house sit because this will give us the opportunity to experience living in the community, and experiencing real every day life in different parts of our country. Also we love animals and will look forward to caring for pets and enjoying their company.
Our experience
We have experience in house/pet sitting. Over the past 40 years we have separately and together owned several homes. We have lived in our current home 20 years (with pets.) We are very respectful when staying at other peoples homes. We suggest you check our Airbnb references.
We were very happy with the care of our two cats who loved the attention they received from Doug and Virginia. They were also welcomed by our neighbours in the Village and we hope they enjoyed our environment.
The villa was nice and tidy when we returned home and they left us essentials when we returned. Would recommend this couple. Very reliable and friendly. Thank you DOUG & VIRGINIA
We have been delighted to have excellent housesitters over the years and Virginia and Doug are no exception. They were wonderful in every way. They looked after our home and garden perfectly, so that we came home to a beautifully tidy house and an abundant watered garden. Of course our cats were contented when we came home, even though they were little elusive over that period. We would recommend Virginia and Doug to anyone wanting top quality house sitters.
Doug and Virginia were amazing house and pet sitters. They cared for our cat and looked after the place exceptionally well. We would recommend to others and use them again if they were available.
There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
