The Perfect Carer/Pet lover

Sales/Admin

54, Sales/Service Manager

Thankyou for viewing my profile.
Having looked after animals and being a home owner I will respect your property and animals, and will look after them with tender loving care, and appreciate they all have their own special needs.
Previously have had several cats/dogs, and a variety of animals most of our lives.

We have looked after friends/families animals and homes over the years and have a geniune love for all animals & many recent petsit's on kiwisitters site.
We enjoy outdoors and enjoy daily dog walking & their routines.
We also like a clean and tidy home, so when you arrive home it will be like you left it. We are quiet and respectful.
We also communicate before house sitting with owners regularly and sent a few pics and updates over the period of time owners are away.

Being fit and active, it is a pleasure to walk dogs everyday. Love the cuddles on the sofa (if it allowed in your house rules of course)!!

Any questions please feel free to email or text/ ph me. Then we can work out if we are a good fit for yourselves and your animals.

I have recently moved back to Auckland and are flexible with dates you require pet sitting.
We have recent references .
Kind regards
Janine

Thank you so much to Janine for house sitting for us at very short notice! She was super easy to communicate with and to convey requirements for the pets and such. Unfortunately the sit was cut short due to sickness of one of our kids but Janine understood and happily made alternative arrangements for those last few days she had planned to still be house sitting, much appreciated and apologies again for this inconvenience. We arrived home to a beautifully clean house and happy animals so can't ... MORE
 
THOMAS (Grey Lynn North Island, Sep 2023 - 1 week 1 night)
Janine and Damian came to the rescue when we needed a new housesitter at short notice - very last minute (thank you!). They did a great job looking after our house and cat while we were away. The house was clean and tidy on our return and the cat had been made quite the fuss of (with a new favourite toy and special food thrown into the mix as well). They even looked after our pool for us which is no small task with the amount of leaf litter at this time of year. Communication was great with ... MORE

We came home to happy cats and lovely flowers. We recommend Janine as a petsitter
 
JOANNA (Ponsonby North Island, May 2024 - 3 weeks)
Janine looked after our house and cat Max for a month, and it was wonderful to have both in such good hands. Janine was great to communicate with and sent me updates of Max which was really appreciated. We arrived home to a very happy cat and clean house, and would recommend Janine.
 
MEGAN (Sandringham , Sep 2023 - One month)
Thanks Megan for your quick response 👍 all the best for your future wee family 😘 Regards Janine
It is the first time I have used Kiwi housesitters, and Janine couldn't have given me more confidence. The house was left immaculately, and Frida was happy and looked very well looked after. I would certainly recommend Janine to anyone.
 
ANNE-GRETE (Herne Bay , Aug 2023 - 4 nights)
It was such a pleasure to look after wee Frida. She was a real sweetie & loved her walks & snuggling on the sofa! Easy to look after. Anne-Grete was wonderful & a beautiful home and area to stay. Enjoyed exploring the area and so close to everything. Communication & house was excellent. ... MORE
Janine was a great house sitter and took exceptional care of our property and our pets. She managed the unenviable task of taking our very ill, elderly cat to the vet with such good grace. We were very grateful for her help. Our dog was very happy and settled on our return so was obviously well cared for. I would highly recommend Janine and Damian and happily have them back to look after our place any time.
 
JANINE (Ponsonby , Apr 2023 - 5 weeks)
Janine looked after our house and our dog for 2 weeks. The house was in excellent condition as was our happy pooch. Janine was really friendly and always quickly replied to messages. Thank you Janine!
 
AMELIA (Kohimarama North Island, Apr 2023 - 2 weeks)
It was a pleasure looking after Brucie for Amelia. He was shy at first but came right and he settled in with us . So sweet. He loved his ball games & walks on the lead. Amelia’s home was very comfortable & she even left us lovely Easter treats!! The location was fabulous to explore the area & ... MORE
Janine stayed over the Christmas period which I was extremely grateful for. My house was left sparkling and she even got me a gorgeous Christmas present to come home to! 100% recommend Janine for a house and pet sit, communication was great and I trusted her completely. Thank you Janine :)
 
TALIA (Freemans Bay , Dec 2022 - 2 weeks 2 days)
Its so great to come home to a very happy wee dog - thanks Janine - Gary clearly had a great time with you. Definately recommend Janine to housesit - no only great company for our dog but left the place looking clean and tidy and great communication too. :)
 
KAREN (Grey Lynn North Island, Dec 2022 - 3 days)
Janine and Damien took wondeful care of our home and pets while we went overseas for four weeks in July. Our two, young, rather exuberant dogs were happy and healthy on our return. They seemed to be looking at the door waiting for Janine and Damien to come home too at first which is a great sign of how well they looked after them. The house was very tidy on our return and I was so grateful that they managed to get our gas water heater fixed when it stopped working so we had hot water ... MORE
 
TANYA (TAURANGA , Jul 2022 - 4 weeks)
Janine & Damian looked after our house and two dogs twice this year while we went on our holidays for 3 weeks and two weeks respectively. They were great with the dogs and their medication. The house was left lovely and tidy and their communication with us was comforting. Would recommend Janine & Damian for house & pet sitting.
 
BEX (Mount Maunganui North Island, May 2022 - 3 weeks)
We felt very comfortable leaving our precious pets and house to Janine and Damien after meeting them. They were amazing with our dog and very knowledgeable about him and his environment. When we returned the animals were settled and content and the house was spotless. Totally recommend this couple to housesit your home - just not whenever we go away because I definitely want them back next holiday!
 
KATHRYN (Bellevue , May 2022 - 1 week 1 day)
Janine & Damien did a great job of looking after our pets & home while we were away. They gave us updates which was nice to assure us our furry friends were happy & well. Would recommend them to house & pet sit :-)
 
KATE (Tauranga North Island, Mar 2022 - 2 weeks 2 days)
Our cat took to Janine the second she met her. Both she and Damien were lovely and I immediately felt comfortable letting them in our home. House cat and fish were all well looked after. Thanks so much!
 
VANESSA (TAURANGA , Jan 2022 - 2 weeks)
Thankyou. It was a pleasure. Really appreciate your comments. Lovely meeting you both.
Janine and Damian took wonderful care of our dog Vinnie and our house while we were away for two weeks. They kindly offered us a lift to the airport and also picked us up when we got back. They also sorted a few other house things for us- making sure a parcel was picked up and our car booked in for a WOF. They even fixed our door handle which needed a bit of CRC! The house was very clean and tidy. Vinnie was healthy and happy. I highly recommend them for your next sit.
 
ANNA (Tauranga North Island, Jan 2022 - 2 weeks)
Janine and Damian were a very nice delightful couple -really personable and easy to communicate with. Everything was looked after, especially the cat, as was to be expected. It was refreshing to get communications from them as to what was happening at home. We wish them all their best in their next houses it's.
