65, Teacher

Hi, I am an ESOL (English) teacher of 20 years or so, Raised in Auckland, lived in Dunedin and overseas. Now working and living in Wellington.

I'm very fond of animals (have lived with cats, dogs, guinea pigs and goldfish and have also taken care of a couple of sheep and a few hens in my time!) I am tidy, clean, reliable and respectful of other people's property & space. I enjoy walking in nature, and my own company, quietly reading a book or watching a movie. I'm also a bit of a greenie and have always been into recycling & composting.

A non smoker, I have done house sits on the North Shore in Auckland for the past few Summers, visiting elderly family members there. Last Summer I was in Dunedin and Central Otago.

Recently semi-retired I have more flexibility for house sit timing now 😎

We were so lucky and grateful to have Carolyn looking after our cat and house while we were on holiday. Her communication was great both before and during the sit, including updates on how it was all going. We felt totally comfortable knowing our wee girl was getting lots of love and attention, plus the house was spotless on our return. Carolyn is just one of those people that you can trust 100%

Carolyn was a lovely sitter for our wee cat. Very communicative and caring. Highly recommended. Thank you!

Carolyn was awesome. Coco and Gucci loved her. The house was left clean and tidy and she was able to stay later to help us out with our later flight times.

Carolyn provided wonderful care for our young border terrier over the Christmas break. Communication was excellent in the lead up to her stay and we felt confident in leaving the country during this time. Thanks Carolyn!

We felt incredibly safe in Carolyn's capable hands. She was very thorough in seeking advice on how the house ran and what the cat liked. She was respectful, communicative and a lovely person. I wouldn't hesitate to use Carolyn again!

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
