Hi, I'm Fay
Looking forward to exploring parts of NZ in more depth than I've seen on drive around holidays and hopefully I'll be trusted to care for your home, pets and garden.
I have has a career in finance administration, my honesty and integrity in these situations has never been questioned.
I enjoy spending time on my hobbies which include sewing, gardening, walking, ebiking.
I enjoy my own company so house sits in country areas would not be a problem.
I spent my teenage and early adult life living on farms of various sizes so am comfortable around dogs, cats, horses, sheep, cattle, pigs, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, but not so keen on mice or rats !!
I find gardening a wonderful way to unwind. I've often done sewing, mending for home owners while on house sits.
In a house sitting situation I would care for a home as if it were my own and carry out any tasks required and report as often as owners want me too.
Looking forward to chatting soon

Fay was great, Alfie took to her straight away. It was only a short stay, but everything was great when we got home. Would recommend.

Fay stepped in at last minute after we had another housesitter cancel. She was very easy to communicate with and left the house immaculate. I would recommend and would happily have her return. Thanks Fay!

TRACY (Rothesay Bay North Island, Oct 2024 - 6 nights)
Fay did a wonderful job taking care of our house, animals and plants. Our cat, Claw, was so much happier, having had Fay’s company whilst we were away. In addition we had a last minute call from a location scout and Fay took this all in her stride making the house look presentable for their visit. We really enjoyed getting to know Fay and would recommend her to others.
 
TAMSIN (Pukekohe North Island, Sep 2024 - 1 week 1 night)
This was our first time having a Pet Sitter and we were happy with Fay and felt very comfortable with her from the start. Fay is very friendly and we had no concerns with her looking after our home and two small dogs.
 
BRENT & ANNETTE (Leamington North Island, Sep 2024 - 5 nights)
Thank you Fay for looking after Toby and my house while I was away. Fay kept in contact with me throughout her stay and I returned home to a very tidy house and a happy dog. I hope you will be able to Housesit for me again sometime soon. I would highly recommend Fay.
 
TANIA (Wanaka , Jun 2024 - 4 weeks)
Wow, what a great experience. Fay did a wonderful job with my high energy dog, Zoe is still trying to find her in the spare room! Lots of great communication and photos when I was away. The house was well looked after. I hope Fay is available the next time I go away.

SCOTT (Cromwell South Island, Feb 2024 - 2 nights)
Fay was a real gem and our Maisie was so happy with her. The house was perfectly maintained and we could not have had anyone better in our home. Fay made many friends in our small community and was highly regarded. We feel very fortunate to have had such a great experience and highly recommend Fay for any house/ pet sitting. We only hope she will be available again...Maisie is missing her!!! Huge thanks again :-D
 
JILL (Ngarimu Bay North Island, Dec 2022 - 4 weeks)
It was lovely to have Fay housesit. She was easy to communicate with and looked after everything perfectly. I'd use her anytime. She had a big property to look after, plus a swimming pool and my seedlings and my courgettes. It was great to come home and find everything flourishing.
 
HILARY (Napier North Island, Nov 2022 - 1 week 6 days)
We really enjoyed having Fay look after our cats and our home whilst we were away. Really great communication before and during the sit. The house was very tidy, just the way we left it. We'd highly recommend Fay to care for your pets and look after your house and would welcome her back again.
 
FIONA (Wellinton North Island, Jun 2022 - 5 days)
Fay was a fantastic house sitter, we are so appreciative of her looking after Cleo, the chickens and the house! Anyone would be very lucky to have Fay house sit at their home. Thanks again!
 
AMBER (North East Valley South Island, Apr 2022 - 4 days)
Fay was amazing on so many levels. Great communicator. Bailey our little dog just loved her even our snooty cat fell in love. She kept us informed and was just delightful to deal with. We even came home to a cooked dinner. I'd recommend Fay really really highly. And will ask her again to house sit for us.
 
KATHY (Wanaka South Island, Apr 2022 - 3 days)
Fay was fantastic, coming home to happy and relaxed animals and a clean house was great. Would highly recommend her to anyone wanting a sitter. Easy and to quick to respond and would love her to come again.

Thanks Fay, you did an excellent job looking after our house and our two pets. The house was clean and we even got a small present upon our return. You are amazing!!!
 
LIZAN (Halswell South Island, Jan 2021 - 2 days)
Fay and her wee dog Spanky were an absolute perfect fit for my house/dog sit. From the beginning Fay's communication was swift and she was super flexible with availability as I changed last minute travel plans. She arrived right on time and I sensed immediately a warmth from her towards both myself and my dog Cora. Throughout the weekend Fay kept me updated with Cora's well-being etc and how Spanky and Cora were getting on. Spanky fit right in, a very well behaved, friendly lovely dog to ... MORE
