The enthusiastic Hungarians

31, wildlife engineer

32, mechanical engineer

Hello there!

We are a non-smoking couple from Hungary working in Opua and Paihia.
We love all animals. Since we arrived to New Zealand, we took care of 11 cats, 6 dogs, 6 sheep, 7 cows and 3 fish. 😁

We are responsible, tidy and resilient.

Before house sitting, we did some WOOFing on a farm where we mainly fed poultry, worked with cows and horses, and cleaned the pastures of drift trees with the help of a small trailer tractor. We also did volunteering in Tiritiri Matangi.

Matt currently works as a CNC Machinist in Opua and Niki works in Paihia.

As a hobby Niki is a bird photographer and Matt loves to tinker with microcontrollers, 3D printing and programing.

Highly recommended!

Had Niko & Matt a few days before we left. They were amazing with our fur kids , Niko helped mix medication for Bruin and made sure he was walked each day at his pace. We came home to very happy and loved animals and a clean home. The bonus was making new friends as well. Can’t speak highly enough…thank you both so much 💛

Niko & Matt are wonderful. We have three large dogs and they were very well looked after, I'm sure house was cleaner than I left it. Would highly recommend them.
