Rose was a brilliant house and cat sitter who went well beyond the call of duty. For the first time ever one our cats was unwell when we were away. Rose organised a visit to the vet, waited around for test results and managed to get the medication into a reluctant Felix over the next few days. We came home to a healthy and well cat. The outcome could have been very different if Rose hadn’t been really on to it and recognised all was not well….. we are very grateful to her.

I was very pleased with Rose . My cat is not always very friendly but she took to Rose as soon as she arrived . When I arrived home all was tidy and clean and Pippa relaxed and cheerful . I would certainly recommend Rose .

Rose is a fantastic sitter, I only wish I could have her every time I go away! Communication was timely, and comprehensive. Rose asked relevant questions to ensure she had all the information needed for the sit. Her experience really shone through. I had some reassuring updates while I was away. The house was immaculate on my return. You couldn't wish for a better sitter. My cats would love to have her back! I couldn't recommend more highly x

Rose was a delightful housesitter. She looked after Bertie my cat so well especially as he hadn't been well prior to her visit. I was not in the slightest bit worried as I knew Rose would look after him well. A lovely lady from NZ who left my house immaculate. I look forward to having Rose stay again in the near future. Thank you Rose

Rose is absolutely amazing, the best pet and housesitter you could ever wish for.
From our very first contact the communication, speed of response and clarity, was spot on.
Rose arrived the day before we left, we gave her a quick tour of the house, introduced her to our two cats and all had dinner together - we left early the next morning.
Whenever we checked in with Rose she replied immediately and sent us pet photos, she only contacted us once with a very small query the entire time ... MORERose is absolutely amazing, the best pet and housesitter you could ever wish for.

Rose left a few hours before we returned to our spotless house, happy and very well groomed cats - I'm sure if they could speak they would have told us they loved her.
Rose is a dream, we would have her back at the drop of a hat.
Make sure you snap her up before somebody else does!

Words cannot express enough my gratitude to Rose for the care and attention during her house and furbaby sit.
I work from home so my cat is used to constant attention and companionship - this is the longest I have left her in the 4 years I have been graced with her being her slave.
Rose not only was here for my "kid" (furbaby) but I came home to a super clean house and all plants alive and thriving. All of which was secondary in my book but very appreciated.

It was wonderfull to have Rose look after our dogs when we were overseas ,they were very well taken care of and we have booked Rose for another pet sit in October.
Thank you so much Rose.
LYNETTE (Clark’s Beach North Island, Aug 2022 - 3 weeks)
I was absolutely thrilled when Rose got in touch about my house sit, her reviews speak for themselves. Communication was perfect, the house was exactly as I left it and the pets were so happy. I didn't see her when I arrived home as I landed very late and she had another house sit but she put some lavender in a vase and some milk in the fridge - the best being able to have a cup of tea in the morning. I 100% recommend and I hope I can lure her back next time! Thank you Rose, you have restored ...

Rose left the house in the very clean condition she found it. She did a great job looking after our cat Wendell. Communication was very good and she didn't mind us calling her a couple of times to check all was well. She left a lovely note as we missed her when we got back. I would highly recommend her.

BELINDA (Whitby North Island, Oct 2021 - 3 days)
Rose was a fantastic house and pet sitter. Both of our animals (cat and dog) were very well taken care of and given plenty of love. Our dog Flax was taken for plenty of walks at the beach. When we returned home our house was clean and tidy, just as we left it. Thank you so much Rose!

DEZ & TANIA (Mangere Bridge North Island, Apr 2021 - 1 week 2 days)
Rose looked after our home and animals for two weeks.
We had no concerns leaving everything in her care. We returned from our holiday to find everything as we had left it.
ROBYN (Ramarama , Apr 2021 - 2 weeks)
Rose house sat for us for 10 days. Ollie was well looked after and it was lovely to come home to a nice clean, tidy house.
Rose gave us updates and communicated with us really well.
Thanks for making or holiday care free!
LIZ (Red Hill North Island, Jan 2021 - 1 week 3 days)
Rose was everything we hoped for in a house sitter. She looked after our cats, chooks , garden and house for nearly 2 weeks. In fact, our cats are more cuddly and affectionate now after spending two weeks with Rose than they were before we left!!!! Cant recommend her enough.
KAREN (Glendowie , Jan 2021 - 2 weeks)
Rose is the perfect house sitter and could not recommend her highly enough. She took great care of my home and animals and I came home to everything shining and cats very happy. Hope Rose can come back some other time.

JANET (Hamilton , Jul 2020 - 2 weeks 3 days)
Rose was amazing. She had a lot to deal with on our property with unexpected lambing problems chicken house flooding and a sudden water issue. She handled these all easily and we appreciated it so much. We returned home to an immaculate property and very happy animals !!. We would highly recommend her. Thanks so much Rose
EMMA (Mangawhai , Jul 2020 - 17 days)
We returned home to find everything was perfect. We can't speak highly enough of Rose as the perfect house sitter. Fluffy (our cat) was well cared for as was our house. Thank you so much Rose and we hope you had time to explore the beautiful Waitaki area.
JENNY (Oamaru South Island, Nov 2019 - 3rd Nov - 1st Dec)
We were thrilled to come home from our holiday after leaving Rose in the care of our home. The house was left in a perfect state, the cat was happy and content. We couldn't have asked for more! Thank you so much Rose. I hope you enjoyed our little beach paradise as well.

Rose was fantastic! I was slightly nervous about not meeting her prior to the house sit but Rose made me feel perfectly at ease. We chatted over the phone and she invited me to her Facebook page.
We were away for three weeks and were extremely happy with Rose's care of our house and our animals. She updated us and let us know that all was running smoothly. She also assisted me with travel documents I had forgot and was kind enough to help with sending them overseas.

Thankyou Rose. I arrived home and was so grateful to find a lovely clean home and Holly I think did miss you. She was walking around looking into the room you had and calling out.
So once again thankyou Rose. I am glad you had a great time here and I will always contact you when I am travelling off somewhere just in case you are available.
Take care and may you always travel safely.
Cheers
Gwen and Holly.

Rose was the best housesitter we could have wished for and I can't recommend her enough!!
She was beyond fantastic and so incredibly caring for our pet, Cinnamon. Unfortunately our cat got diagnosed with cancer just 2 weeks before our planned family visit overseas and we were unsure how long he would live for (vet said it might be still a year or a matter of weeks). Sadly it went downhill for him all of a sudden and together with the help of a friend, Rose provided the best care possible in ...

Sadly it went downhill for him all of a sudden and together with the help of a friend, Rose provided the best care possible in this difficult situation right up to his end.
Rose was so wonderful in communication, as well as that I know that our beloved Cinny was loved and cared for in his final days.
We can't thank Rose enough and would recommend her to any friends, should they need a reliable, friendly and caring housesitter.

Thank you Rose for doing a wonderful job of looking after our cat Jimmy and minding our house! We returned to a very clean and tidy house and a very contented cat! We would recommend Rose to others without hesitation.
PETER (One Tree Hill North Island, Dec 2018 - 1 week)
We really appreciated having Rose who looked after the house and animals wonderfully. Rose is a really nice person, easy to communicate with. We messaged while we were away to check on how everything was going, how the pets were. Rose always was happy to let us know all was well. We would love to have Rose again.

Thank you so much Rose for house sitting for us for two months in Ngaruawahia. A huge 10 out of 10 from us. It was so reassuring to know you were looking after our home. It gave us peace of mind. Your granddaughter was a great help as well and loved Penny the cat, and Penny loved her. Thank you so much for caring for our house and Gardens, the gardens and lawn looked lovely for us to come home to, and the house was just spotless inside.

JOHN (Ngaruawahia North Island, Jun 2018 - 1 month 3 weeks)
I can't reccomend Rose enough. She house sat for us for 3 weeks looking after our cat and kept us updated through our trip with photos of him and letting us know how he was getting on. We were a bit sad to leave him for so long and the updates made the world
Of difference.
The house was absolutely immaculate when we got home, and our cat was a very happy boy!
Thank you so much Rose!!
INDIE (Welcome Bay, Tauranga , Jun 2018)
Rose is a wonderful house sitter. She coped beautifully with our two dogs - one 'geriatric' and the other who is like 'a bull in a china shop' and does every thing at high speed. She knew when to discipline or reward them and how to maintain control.
Rose got on well with our neighbour too, who has now booked her for a home sit.

Rose is a friendly, easy going lady. Very obliging and obviously an animal lover.
We felt very reassured on meeting her that our pet and our home would be in good hands.
She left the house spotless and our dog was obviously well cared for.
We wouldn't hesitate in recommending her

Rose was a fantastic house sitter. A wonderful communicator - we arranged details for the house-sit easily together. She looked after our home and cat for three weeks. We returned to a beautifully clean house (freshly made beds, folded washing) milk and bread in fridge and a very happy cat. We felt very lucky to have her stay. Thank you Rose so much for all that you did! Nga mihi nunui - our whanau!
AROHA (Petone , Sep 2017)
Rose was a fantastic house sitter for us.
Rose looked after our house and 9 month old Bull Mastiff for 3 weeks. It was a big decision for us to trust someone with our dog as he is pretty spoilt and well loved.
Rose did a fantastic job. She communicated with us when we were away and we came back to an extremely tidy and clean house.
Our dog was very happy when we got home and Rose had even found new games to play with him to help keep him entertained.
