I trained as a registered nurse in Auckland in the 80's. I have worked in many different places in New Zealand and the UK over the course of my career, but have now retired from nursing and work part-time from home.

My five children are all grown and have children of their own now, leaving me with more freedom to do the things I love including exploring and meeting new people in our beautiful NZ

I love all animals and have experience with most. My youngest daughter had a pony for many years so, although I don't ride myself, I am knowledgeable regarding their care. I have also hand reared cows, goats and sheep and have had many varieties of pets over the years. I have one small dog of my own who always travels with me.

I have been gardening all my life and absolutely love growing flowers and food for myself and family.

I will respect and care for your home, and love your pets, as though they were my own, Upon your return your pets will be content and happy, your home just as you left it and your plants and gardens cared for.

Thanks,
Karen
