Cristina and Patrick

36, Biologist

33, Biologist

Hello :)
We are Cristina and Patrick, a couple from New Zealand/Germany with a love for nature, animals, and the outdoors. We are both biologists and our hobbies include climbing, hiking, and travelling. Patrick is also a talented wood carver, potter and photographer, and Cristina has a keen interest in reading, writing, and painting.

A year ago we arrived in New Zealand, mainly to visit Cristina's family and spend more time in this beautiful country. For the past 6 months we've been situated in Dunedin, house sitting the entire time and having a lovely time discovering the city and it's surrounds. It was during one of our house sits that we found Nanuk, a wee kitten who has since joined us on our adventures and now has a long list of furry friends :)
Our experience with animals also includes taking care of sheep, goats, horses, geese, chickens, and fish.
So if you need someone to look after your house and furry family members then don't hesitate to contact us! :)

Cristina and Patrick are the perfect house/ pet sitters. They were extremely respectful, reliable and highly communicative in the four weeks that we were away. They sent us regular updates with some fantastic photos of their time with our two dogs . The dogs were obviously well cared for , had plenty of walks on the beach and were in excellent fettle when we returned home. Patrick had maintained the gardens of the property and the house was immaculately clean . The kitchen was spotless. I ... MORE

Thank you so much Marg and Danny! We had a great time :)
Was wonderful knowing that our animals were well cared for while we were away, they seemed well contented and relaxed. All was good. Thank you very much Christina and Patrick, and all the best for your year ahead.

Wonderful young couple. Left the house clean and tidy. Both my dogs seemed very relaxed, healthy and happy while I was away. Defineately would recommend them and use them again to house sit in the future

Thank you for your kind review! Also we accidently pushed submit without ticking all the boxes for Pet, House etc. Full stars for all of them 😊
Christina & Patrick were amazing. They came to visit firstly to meet myself and the pets. At all times they communicated well and sent updates on how the dogs were doing at home while I was away. My dogs got great exercise which was amazing. Highly recommend this lovely couple 🥰

Thank you so much for having us! 😊
Cristina & Patrick were fantastic sitters. They looked after Reggie (3year old cocker spaniel) for 5 weeks while we were away in Europe. Cristina was excellent at communication and sent many photos and videos to update us on Reggie. They also took him on lots of awesome walks and adventures. The house was meticulously maintained and cared for too. I highly recommend this couple for house and pet sitting. We would happily use them again in the future.
