The responsible pet-loving professionals

31, Owner of Modal Architecture

34, Software Developer

Hello :)!

My partner, Michelle, and I are a professional couple in our early 30s. Michelle is a dedicated software developer, and I run my own architecture firm. We’ve both been around animals our whole lives—cats, dogs, and even budgies—so we genuinely enjoy their company. Since I work from home most days, your pets would receive plenty of attention both during the day and in the evening.

We are experienced and responsible house sitters, having been homeowners, landlords, and tenants ourselves. We know what it takes to keep a home clean and well-maintained.

Recently, we moved from Wellington to Auckland to be closer to family. While we’re now based in Auckland, we love to get away and often house sit around New Zealand. This allows us to truly experience different parts of the country while you travel, leaving your pets in safe hands.

We are trustworthy, honest, and reliable, and we would care for your home and pets as if they were our own.

We understand the importance of having the right people in your home and are happy to answer any questions you might have.

We'd love to hear from you!

We were so lucky to have Sam and Michelle look after our house and our dog for a month. Their communication before and during was great and we felt really well informed on Bruce’s progress. They provided unprompted updates and photos very regularly. Some friends saw them out walking Bruce and commented on how lovely they were and how happy Bruce was. We returned back to a very happy dog, a very clean house and the most amazing and thoughtful amounts of treats including lunch which was so ... MORE

Sam and Michelle were so lovely to deal with. Their communication was fantastic, they sent photos of mooses adventures and kept us up to date on how everything was going. The house was left so clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend.

Sam and Michelle looked after our home and dog, Remmy recently and we were so happy to have met them both. They were brilliant and loving to our Remmy and we came home to a spotless home, fresh sheets on the bed, washing done and a very happy content dog. Highly recommend this lovely couple

Sam and Michelle kept the house clean and tide. They cared for my 2 dogs as if they were their own dogs. I had regular communication and photos sent to me of the dogs which put me at easy and I was then able to enjoy my holiday.

Sam and Michelle took care of our older spaniel and home for nearly a month while we were in Europe. It was such a great experience - they came and met us beforehand, and once we were away kept in touch regularly, with pictures of our dog, and we could fully relax knowing she was in great hands. The house was beautifully tidy when we returned home and our dog was happy and healthy and had obviously been very well cared for. Highly recommend them, they are lovely people and great house sitters. ... MORE

Sam & Michelle did an excellent job looking after our pets while we were away, we even got some photo updates. We returned home to happy pets a clean house and even some sweet treats. We were very reassured that Ted & Lula were in good hands and that our property was being looked after so we could enjoy our time away. Communication was easy and they took the time to visit us before our trip so they could meet the pets and see how the house worked. A very successful Housesit and we are very ... MORE

Sam and Michelle were wonderful house sitters. Communication was regular and reassuring. The place was left immaculately clean and tidy, and they took thoughtful care of our cat. Wholeheartedly recommended!

Sam and Michelle were fabulous. They came and met us and our dog prior to our trip. They sent us video/photo updates most days whilst we were away. Our home was left clean and tidy on our return and our dog was happy and content. We would recommend Sam and Michelle as house sitters.
