Gaik

hi,

My name is Gaik.

I am a 57-year-old Malaysian Chinese woman, returning NZ resident visa holder. I am mature, honest, respectful, reliable, responsible, hard-working, friendly, clean, neat and tidy. Highly organised. I am generally a quiet, homely person, who enjoys reading, going for walks, runs and hikes, exploring the outdoors. Non-smoker and non-drinker. I grew up with dogs and cats in our family home.

I am usually based in Singapore and have just reached a turning point in my career as an in-house Legal Counsel. In 2022, I lived for 4.5 months in Auckland, working remotely for my Singapore employer during this time, and thereafter did a 4-week road trip visiting various places on the North Island during the final month of my stay. In 2023, during the 25-week period from 1/8/23 to 23/1/24, I successfully completed 7 house-and-pet sits, ranging in duration from 5 days to 5 weeks in various locations in Auckland and Waikato regions. I very much enjoyed looking after different homes and breeds and personalities of pet dogs and cats and quickly grew deep affections for my pet wards.

I will return to NZ on 26/7/24 and will be staying till 14/11/2024. During this period of my stay in NZ in 2024, I would be very happy to house-and-pet sit again.

I am experienced and very much enjoy looking after a home. Ever since 1995, I have always managed and maintained our own family home (first in Germany, then in Cambridge, England, and since 2004 in Singapore). My husband teaches and researches at a local university in Singapore and our son works in Germany. My husband will join me only during the last three weeks of my stay in NZ in 2024. He loves animals and gardening and would be a great addition to any house-and-pet sit.

Feel free to contact me if you would like me to house sit your home during my stay in NZ in 2024.

Thank you.
