Caring, trustworthy, reliable, tidy/spotless

33, Data Analyst

Hi!
My name is Patty (33yo Data Analyst/Working from home-1 day a week at the office (9am-5pm). I’m an experienced house sitter with 8 years of experience and I’d love to take care of your pets and home. I have been lucky enough to take care of several pets over the course of these 8 years and I have enjoyed each and every one of them. These opportunities have allowed me to know the different needs and personalities of each pet.
I have also had dogs and cats of my own throughout my life, and I know how important it is for us to have peace of mind when we go on trips knowing that they will be well cared for. I really enjoy taking care of them and spending time with them as if they were my own. Your pet will receive the love and attention they all deserve, and your home will be respected.

I love going out for walks and runs every day, so if you have an active pet, they will get the daily exercise they need. While I love the outdoors and exploring, I’m happy staying inside relaxing as well, listening to podcasts, or reading a book and enjoying your pet’s company.

Looking forward to meeting you :)

We were incredibly lucky to find Patty through Kiwi House Sitters! She took care of our home and our many pets for three weeks, and we couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter. Her communication was excellent—we received regular updates, along with lovely photos and videos of our pets, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we returned, our house was absolutely spotless, and it was clear that our pets had been well cared for and loved in our absence. Patty went ... MORE

What an absolute blessing to have met Patricia. I have never felt more relaxed and at ease than I did during this holiday, because I knew Patty was looking after our little dog like he is her own. Her communication was exactly what I needed while being away from Apollo, and her videos set my mind at ease knowing that he is okay, he is loved, and he is taken care of. She went out of her way completely learning how to say Afrikaans words so Apollo can understand her better, and she gave him more ... MORE

Patricia looked after our home & cat Joe for 2 weeks. She was absolutely amazing! Lots of communication along with videos/photos of a very happy cat.

Patty was the dream pet sitter. It was my first time leaving my dog in the care of someone else and to be honest I was quite anxious about it. Patty was so amazing from the get go, she came over several times leading up to the house sit so that she could bond with the animals. My dog is a rescued dog whom had a terrible beginning. She usually takes awhile to warm to anyone but I could tell from the get go she felt a lot more settled and comfortable with Patty from the very first meet. Patty was ... MORE

Patty took care of our cats and house wonderfully. She sent us lots of photos of our cats having a good time with her, and they actually walked around looking for her after she had gone. We would gladly have Patty back again.

Thanks Margaret and John. My pleasure, I absolutely loved looking after Smirf, Rosey, Willow, and your home. They warmed up to me very quickly, I'll missed them heaps! Thanks for all the excellent communication, kidness and generosity :) Look forward to seeing you all again soon.
Patty was able to adapt her days to suit us when we needed to change dates due to an illness in the family we were visiting. We had photos of our cat Coco and the Tui which feeds in our garden sent to us. We came home to a clean and tidy house. Patty is delightful and a great house sitter. Highly recommended and we would have her back again.
 
ANN (Orewa North Island, Sep 2023 - 10 days)
Thanks Ann and Paul. I absolutely loved looking after Coco, the Tuis, and your home. Thanks for all the great communication, generosity and thoughtfulness.
