Caring Veterinary Nurse

26, Vet Nurse

30, Video Editor/Videographer

Hello! My name is Holly and I am a qualified Veterinary Nurse.
You can feel at ease knowing your pets are going to be well looked after while you're away. I have been working as a veterinary nurse for four years and am more than happy to look after animals that require some extra care.

My husband, Tray, moved to New Zealand four years ago from the United States to spend time with me and explore our beautiful country. Tray will be studying video editing in Christchurch city and I will be studying part-time online so will have plenty of time to spend with the animals.

We also have a gentle, retired greyhound called Maggie, she's 5years old. Maggie gets on beautifully with other dogs and would love a new doggy friend if you are open to have her stay with us.

Both Tray and I have a love for animals, and a strong passion for travelling which is why we enjoy house sitting. We are based in Christchurch as of Feb 2025.

We have cared for many pets over the last three years of house sitting. References are available on request. We look forward to meeting you and your gorgeous animals.

Kind regards,

Holly and Tray & Maggie

Holly and Trey were great house sitters. Lizzy the dog seemed very happy and the house was spotless when we got back. Would recommend.
 
PHILLIPA (Petone North Island, Dec 2020 - 6 days)
Holly and Tray looked after our house and animals while we were away for 5 weeks. Holly was great at sending me photos and updates on how the animals were doing and it was very reassuring to know that they were happy and being well looked after. Everything looked just as I had left it when we got home. I would happily use Holly and Tray again if needed and would recommend them to anyone needing a house sitter.

Holly and Tray were great, they looked after our greyhound, Ayla, and her many needs. We came home after 7 weeks to find her very settled; she was very happy to have another greyhound in the house. The house was left spotless. Communicating and coordinating with them was easy and we were sent regular updates. We highly recommend Holly, Tray and Maggie to look after your pets and home. Thank you both.

Thank you for the lovely review Sharon.
Holly and Tray looked after our two dogs and house for two weeks while we were visiting family. They also brought their dog Maggie who got on with our two dogs even if Meg might have felt slightly put out!! We came home to a nice clean house and two happy dogs. Thank you Holly and Tray
 
ROBYN (Upper Moutere South Island, Apr 2023 - 2 weeks 2 days)
These guys were such wonderful sitters and carers. It was good for Sadie to learn to share with another dog, the first time we have done this. We came home after a month to find her the most settled she has been after such a long period and Holly and Tray were so tranquil to be around I can see why. They were lovely to meet, and the whole house was sparkling clean when we got back which was like a gift! Thank you both and would recommend you very highly. Good luck with all you venture into.

Thank you Christine, we wish you all the best for your new adventures also. Give Sadie a big snuggle for us. X
