Hi there. Hong and I live in Auckland but ultimately plan to travel overseas in approximately 2 years time. We want to do housesitting while we are travelling as a way of prolonging our travel experience and spending more time in areas we visit rather than 3 countries in 2 days. We want to build our CV as really good house/pet sitters before we venture overseas. We have owned cats and dogs and are currently being trained by a beautiful ginger tabby who sometimes miaows when we say Zac. Hong is a keen amateur gardener and I am an experienced home handyman plus I have worked on farms in an earlier life. We have enjoyed all our animals (and shed a few tears at their passing) and would consider it a privilege to care for your house and/or pets in your absence

Paul and Hong stayed to care for our young dog Hamish for a second time and continued to provide excellent love and care for him, while ensuring our house was kept clean and tidy. They kept great communication and sent updates of Hamish enjoying bush walks. We were again reassured that he was in great care while we could relax and enjoy our holiday. Absolutely recommend Paul and Hong!

Thanks Jules. Much appreciated. I hope that your health continues to improve. I sincerely hope that Hamish can become that beautiful personality in ALL circumstances :-) He is certainly worth it!
Paul was a previous sitter for Reese and Astro and the dogs really liked him. Paul has consistently been a great house and pet sitter. The house was very clean upon arrival and the bedding was washed and hung on the line. I highly recommend him

Paul and Hong were fantastic sitters who looked after our house and 20 month old rescue dog. The house was kept clean and tidy and our dog was well loved and cared for. They kept in contact and even sent a couple of photos of our dog on a walk! I highly recommend Paul and Hong and will gladly have them stay again.

You're too kind Was a pleasure
Paul was very reliable and timely. He had no problem giving my senior german shepherd medication for her pancreas disorder and arthritis. He washed my comforter and sheets, which I really appreciated. He even fixed a few things around the house and went above and beyond! The house was spotless when I arrived and my dogs (german shepherd and great dane) were well taken care of with 4 walks a day and visits to the lagoon. I highly recommend Paul and I intend on using his services again soon.

Once again, Paul and Hong have done a great job of house/pet sitting for us. They are reliable and conscientious and have a good rapport with the animals. The accommodation was left clean and tidy and we would gladly have them return for further sits.

Paul arrived the day before the sit to get to know our pets and their feeding routines. By the second feed round Paul was quite confident with all the animals and we happily left him to it. Hong spent part of the sit with Paul and they both went over and above our expectations especially giving extra attention to our horse who apparently enjoyed the bonus brushing sessions! The cottage was left clean and tidy with the laundry washed and hanging out to dry which we appreciated. We are looking ... MORE
