Fantastic Sarah, my Alfie loved her. She looked after him so well , taking him for walks & playing games with him. Communication was awesome , regular photos & videos. My home was left in immaculate order. I recommend Sarah to anyone who has a precious pet.
RHONDA (Waiuku North Island, Aug 2024 - 2 weeks 1 night)
Sarah provided appropriate level of communication, sending photos of our cat. She mowed our lawns which off her own back as we told her not to worry. House was clean and tidy on our return. Happy to recommend.

SONYA (Royal Oak/Epsom , Aug 2024 - 1 week 1 night)
Sarah looked after our house and dog for six weeks and was a fantastic house sitter. Excellent communication and updates throughout the stay and our dog was clearly well loved and cared for - she’s been moping since Sarah left! I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone.

Sarah looked after our home and our dog Cookie (border collie cross) for a week whilst we were away on holiday. Sarah is an excellent communicator and called us for a chat before arriving, and then sent us daily updates and photos of Cookie whilst we were away. Both the house and Cookie were well cared for while we were away. We were new to Kiwi House Sitters and weren't quite familiar with the process, but she was patient with us!

Sarah looked after our cat in an excellent fashion going above and beyond.
The house was spotless and well cared for.
Unfortunately our plans were forced to be changed and Sarah demonstrated flexibility in difficult circumstances.
Thank you Sarah.
GRAHAM (Titirangi North Island, Apr 2024 - 2 months 1 week)
Sarah did a great job looking after the house and cat, you wouldn’t have even known she had been here for a week. Many Thanks
STEVE (Riverhead North Island, Mar 2024 - 4 nights)
After a few days away we came home to a very happy cat & a well looked after home. Loved all the photos you sent of Sammy too ,
We were very happy with Sarah as our house sitter & would definitely ask her again! Thanks again Sarah

Great communication, really happy with Sarah, Thank you!!!
NIKKI (Beach Haven North Island, Mar 2024 - 2 nights)
Sarah was a wonderful find. She helped us out at very short notice and we couldn't have had a more compassionate, caring and helpful person. The dogs were very well looked after and the house is sparkling. Would highly recommend getting in touch with Sarah. Thanks again for everything.
SAARA (Manly North Island, Feb 2024 - 1 week)
Sarah is very experienced and thoroughly reliable, I was lucky to get her for my pet sit! I'll be booking her ahead next time!
KATY (Mangawhai North Island, Feb 2024 - 1 week 1 night)
Sarah did a wonderful job of looking after our spoodle Charlie. He was happy, well walked and entertained. I would recommend Sarah to any person needing pet care whilst away.
VIV (Devonport North Island, Dec 2023 - 4 nights)
During my time away I felt confident that Sarah would take care of my property and give attention to things as they arose.
This was confirmed when I returned. The house and garden were well cared for and just like I left them.
Sarah was very responsive to messages and managed very well in what turned out to be a very rushed departure from me.
Would recommend Sarah to others.
MATTHEW (Red Hill North Island, Apr 2023 - 3 months)
Sarah was great. She helped us out with short notice and kept us informed with how Quinny and the bunnies were going. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned. Would really like to have Sarah back to our house if she were free again .
CLAYTON (Chatswood North Island, Jan 2023 - 3 days)
We were very grateful for Sarah's care of our home and our animal family for the 2 weeks we were away. She kept in regular contact with photos and videos of her adventures with Aida (our dog) and our home was amazing on return. Sarah was very easy to communicate with and we are sure Aida didn't miss us one bit. :-) Sarah's own dog stayed here too, but you wouldn't even know there had been an extra dog in the house. Sarah used our car and it was in great condition on return. Thank you Sarah - ... MOREWe were very grateful for Sarah's care of our home and our animal family for the 2 weeks we were away.

BRENDA AND CRAIG (Tauranga South North Island, Nov 2022 - 2 weeks 2 days)
I felt very comfortable leaving Sarah to house sit and look after Louis. On return the house was spotless and my little pooch was relaxed and happy
I have had Sarah return to do more house sitting and highly recommend her.
LIZ (Devonport North Island, Nov 2022)
Sarah stayed last month for a weekend to look after our 2 dogs Tess and Duke. After chatting to Sarah on the phone I immediately knew Tess and Duke would be in capable hands. We arrived home to a lovely clean house and happy dogs. We will definitely contact Sarah again and highly recommend her!! Thanks Sarah.
JACKIE (Beach Haven North Island, Oct 2022 - 2 days)
Sarah is very experienced at house sitting and confident looking after all your animals. She cares for the animals like her own and we felt that the horses, goats, dog and cat wouldnt have noticed that we had gone!
Excellent communication and the house was left better than we left it. Thank you Sarah
Julie & Family.
JULIE (Oropi North Island, Sep 2022 - 6 days)
Sarah was our house sitter, for six weeks, looking after our 9 year old dog and 7 year old cat.
We returned to 2 very happy pets, and a very tidy house. During her sit she maintained excellent communication, with regular photos and updates of the pets.
Would highly recommend Sarah to anyone requiring a completely trustworthy housesitter
TINA (HAMURANA , Aug 2022 - 6 weeks)
We had Sarah house sit and look after our poodle Wilson for 6 weeks. Both Ernie and I would thoroughly recommend Sarah for a house sit and to look after your pets. We returned to a happy dog, a clean tidy house and garden. We appreciated the photos and updates that Sarah sent us regularly. A lovely lady indeed with te added bonus that working from home means no stressed animals.
ERIE AND RAYE (Omokoroa North Island, Jun 2022 - 1 month 2 weeks)
Thank you Sarah for looking after our two cats, Ginny and Tommy while we were away on holiday in the south island.
We didn't meet Sarah before the housesit but she contacted us regularly with updates and photos of our fur babies and we felt very assured that we had left them in very good hands! Sarah left the house in pristine order with two happy cats when we arrived home. We would love to have Sarah house/pet sit for us again and have no hesitation in recommending her to others.
LYNETTE (Northcote Point North Island, Dec 2020 - 2 weeks 2 days)
Sarah looked after our house and small dog Billie recently and we were delighted that she kept us updated regularly with photos of Billie looking very happy and healthy. We came home to a clean and tidy home with fresh bread and milk in the fridge. We would highly recommend Sarah for your housesit :)
TRUDIE (Kerikeri North Island, Jul 2019 - 1 month 1 week)
Sarah is a really down to earth and responsible sitter. She would never let you down.
MOIRA (Ponsonby North Island, Apr 2019 - 1 week 1 day)
Sarah looked after my 2 dogs for 6 days and she ticked all the boxes. It was a short dog/house sit as we had to say goodbye to our beloved dying friend in Sydney. Sarah is friendly, thoughtful, considerate and great at prompt communication with us. She sent photos of the dogs and reported as to their welfare and activities. My 2 Wheaten Terriers clearly loved her and she them. The house was clean and tidy on our return and she even had a meal ready for our late arrival. We would be more ...

MARIANNE (Mangawhai North Island, Nov 2018 - 5 days)
Sarah stayed in our home with our 2 pooches for 5 weeks. Sarah is an amazing lady who took care of our dogs with such passion. Our home was immaculate and I would have Sarah back in a heart beat.
We were unable to meet up before we went away but all our arrangements went without any worries. Thank you Sarah you feel like one of our family now.
MARGARET (Papamoa Beach , Sep 2018)
I am so happy that we discovered Sarah. She looked after our home and my very precious little dog whilst we were sailing in Fiji for 3 months. She is reliable and highly responsible, and I am happy to highly recommend her services. My dog was walked daily and had lots of playtime. It is obvious that he is missing Sarah. She is a gem.
LINDA (Opito Bay North Island, Jun 2018 - 3 months 1 week)
Sarah looked after our home and 2 older dogs for over 3 weeks while we were away. She sent us regular updates and photos and we came home to a clean and tidy house and 2 happy, healthy and obviously well cared for and loved dogs. I have no trouble recommending Sarah as a house sitter and would love to have her back in the future.
KERRY (Mangawhai Heads North Island, May 2018 - 3 weeks)
How lucky were we to find Sarah! We are so grateful for the great care she took of Beau our Spoodle, and also Sooty, our cat while we were away for a week (and the house of course!). A gentle soul, Sarah has a great way with animals, and Beau just loved her. (He seems to be still looking for her now!) We loved the occasional photos and updates and felt 110% confident Beau was in good hands. He was walked twice a day, swam and clearly thoroughly enjoyed Sarah's company. It was wonderful that ...

We loved the occasional photos and updates and felt 110% confident Beau was in good hands. He was walked twice a day, swam and clearly thoroughly enjoyed Sarah's company. It was wonderful that Sarah is able to take her work with her wherever she goes, so was able to spend all day with Beau - working from home. I do think he is even behaving better upon our return! On top of all of this, we are quite neat freaks, so were thrilled to return to a super clean and tidy house to boot. We can't recommend Sarah highly enough and would have her back in a heartbeat. Thanks Sarah!
CARMEL (Warkworth North Island, Mar 2018 - 5 nights)
Sarah left our place very clean and tidy. Our animals were happy and she sent update photos every few days over the 2 weeks we were gone, which was lovely.
CHRISTINE (Kerikeri North Island, Mar 2018 - 1 week 6 days)
Sarah did an excellent job looking after our 10 acre property and dogs in our 12 day absence. We found Sarah reliable and conscientious. Our home was beautifully clean and tidy and our four dogs happy and healthy.
HELEN (Papakura North Island, Feb 2018 - 2 weeks)
It was great to have Sarah looking after our wee dog and house. Highly recommended.
JACKIE AND ALLAN (Titirangi North Island, Feb 2018 - 4 days)
Sarah is a friendly, laid-back, outgoing person who is fascinating to talk with. She clearly loves animals (and people) and bonded with our dog & cat quickly.
Sarah stayed at our house for a week whilst we were in Australia and sent regular txts & photos, our dog Poppy looked very happy with her daily beach swim/run. It was very hot whilst we were away & Sarah was quick to make sure the pets were kept cool & comfortable in the heat.

I would happily recommend Sarah to other house-sitters as a trustworthy, reliable person to take great care for their pets & house whilst away.
SUSANNE (Titirangi North Island, Jan 2018 - 1 week 1 day)
I would like to endorse our fabulous housesitter Sarah for the care and attention she paid on her housesit for us recently. She lavished attention on our dog Timmy, took great care in looking after the garden and house, and even came to collect us from the airport at 6:30am in the morning! I cannot recommend her highly enough.
