Lydia & Tane

23, Teacher

23, Hydrologist

Kia ora!
We're Lydia and Tane, a friendly, animal-loving couple living in Hamilton. We understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your animals and home. We both grew up with furry friends and have experience caring for farm animals. We share a passion for the great outdoors, you'll often find us riding our bikes along the river trail, swimming or surfing in the ocean and running through the bush.


Here's a bit more about us:

Lydia (23): Kia ora, last year I completed my degree in primary education at the university of Waikato and currently relief teaching. I volunteered for the SPCA for two years, working with the cats and kittens in quarantine and adoption. My role was to feed, nurture and give them lots of love. I grew up in Wellington with two cats, and absolutely adore all animals.

Tane (23): kia ora, I currently work as a field hydrologist where I spend majority of my time outside in streams and rivers. Growing up we always had animals around the house which have included cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits and a sheep.

Warm regards,

Tane & Lydia

Lydia and Tane were superb and very accomodating when we had a delivery issue with our dishwasher turning up unexpectedly. They also went above and beyond with the gardening. They also managed to get our little runaway Frankie to walk off-lead which was a joy to see and since returning home we have been able to have her off-lead walking as well! I would highly recommend them both to anyone looking for sitters and hope that we would be lucky enough to have them sit for us again in the future.
 
BROOKE (Hamilton East North Island, Dec 2024 - 2 weeks 2 nights)
We appreciate Lydia and Tane looking after our house and pets after our previous housesitters cancelled close to when we left. They showed initiative, are trustworthy and well natured, and generally took good care of the place.
 
ANNETTE (Hamilton , Sep 2024 - 3 weeks)
Lydia and Tane are a lovely young couple who looked after our cat, 2 dogs and 8 heifers on our lifestyle block. They communicated well, left the house clean, and were a pleasure to deal with.
