Sam Taylor

38, Programme Developer (Education)

Kia ora!

After many years teaching and working as a head of department at a tertiary institute, I now I work as a programme developer. Working remotely is such a blessing and after renting out my Waikato house and renting my own place in Tāmaki/Auckland for awhile I've decided I would love to explore the country more.

Growing up in the Waikato in and around farms, we always had pet dogs and cats which I loved spending time with. Looking after animals is second nature to me.

The cat in the picture is Bandit. She is a 14 year old kuia who got rescued. She has a special diet and medication routine due to her arthritis and kidney issues.

At 38 I am fit, able, easy going tidy, organised and trustworthy. I love going to the gym, running, surfing and working out (both at the gym and at home).

I have experience house sitting in the past including looking after different doggos with particular meal plans and schedules.

Long or short, near or far I would love to help.

Please contact me if you want to find out anything specific.

Nāku noa,
Kind regards,
- Sam

Sam is a great house sitter and a great person; he is very friendly, kind and definitely an animal lover. He looked after our babies, Sophie & Tango, and kept us updated often through text messages and photos. Sophie and Tango enjoyed staying with him, and we could also have peace of mind being away, knowing they were well looked after. Thank you so much, Sam, for looking after our babies and keeping our house clean and tidy. It was a pleasure meeting you, and we hope to see you again in the ... MORE

Sam looked after our house and chickens at short notice, for two weeks. We came home to find the house very clean and tidy, with the thoughtful addition of fresh milk in the fridge. All was well with the chooks and garden too. Would recommend.

Sam was an excellent house sitter. Great communication skills, he took great care of our three furry babies and the house was really clean and tidy for us when we got home. Thanks for being a great house sitter Sam. We would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a house sitter in the future. Thanks again!

Safe house!

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