Trustworthy, positive, integrity.

61, Early Childhood Relief Teacher (qualified)

I am an Early childhood relief teacher that travels for work around the Auckland and Waikato regions at present. I am a spiritual person, peaceful and trustworthy.
I have lived in Thames/Coromandel for the past 22 years but recently decided to move and have a base at my son's house in Karaka, Sth Auckland between house sits.
I have worked in permanent ECE positions for years and now alternate between permanent and relief teaching. Relief teaching allows me to spend more time with family and friends out of the Thames district. I have four children and 8 amazing Grandchildren.
I will love and treat your precious pets as though they were my own and take care of your property with the utmost integrity and passion. I look forward to hearing about your needs and requirements and know that we will be able to work together to create in you a sense of security that will enable you to enjoy your own adventure away....xxx

Dianne was a wonderful sitter! She actually got our cat to stay (cat usually runs away to the bush if we are not there). We came back to a clean house, fresh bedding, choc in fridge etc. Di kept in touch with us on our holiday and it was reassuring to know all was well. She is a lovely, warm and friendly lady and I now count her as a friend!
 
FENELLA (Glenbrook North Island, Dec 2020 - 2 weeks 6 days)
Thanks Fenella!! Such a pleasure x
Met with Dianne beforehand, otherwise never saw her at all - which actually worked really well for both of us. Reliable, and true to her word, the house was left exactly as it was handed over, all clean and tidy, you would almost not know anyone had been there. Buttercup the cat, true to form, was totally elusive, sneaking in to feed after dark, but showed up within hours of my return, and is in great shape, so all good. I suspect Dianne is in demand, and would happily have her house sit ... MORE
 
KATE (Mangatawhiri , Nov 2024 - 1 month 1 week)
I found Dianne to be amazing. Dianne looked after my lovely dog, Bibi, who is 15 1/2 years old so she has a few problems. Dianne was really great looking after Bibi and took her on many outings during the six days that I was away. I think Bibi really enjoyed the change in her usual daily activities. Dianne kept in touch with me and sent me photos of their outings and it was so lovely to receive these and know that my pet was being so well cared for. Dianne left my house spotless so I would ...

We cannot recommend Dianne more highly, right from the outset when she came to meet us beforehand we found Dianne to be extremely helpful and friendly, her communication was excellent. The house was immaculate, and the somewhat demanding pets happy and apparently unfazed by our absence. We look forward to maintaining our relationship with Dianne and happily recommend her to others.
 
JOHN (9C No 2 Road , Jul 2024 - 1 week 2 nights)
We were so happy to have Dianne house sit for us. She was easy to communicate with and prompt with her replies. We were fortunate to meet with Dianne prior to the house sit so she could meet our furbaby and get a lay of the land. Dianne took great care of Charlie and also our house. Some thoughtful gestures from Dianne were much appreciated. We would not hesitate to recommend Dianne and hope to lock her in again for our next adventure. All the best and many thanks, Gale & Ian x

It was a pleasure having Dianne house sit for us. She was super friendly and great at communicating. Our dog and chickens were very happy and we came home to a spotless house. Thank you Dianne!
 
MADDY (Mangawhai North Island, Jun 2024 - 6 nights)
Dianne looked after our home like it was her own. Looked after our fur babies and had great communication! Would highly recommend Dianne to house sit and would have her again anyday. P.s thankyou for the yummy bickies they went down a treat after our big drive home 🤤
 
EMMA (Rotorua North Island, Apr 2024 - 4 nights)
I would definitely recommend Dianne to house sit. I never met Dianne in person but communication was excellent and she appreciated the long page of notes I left with house /cat details etc! I hope to have Dianne to house sit in the future.
 
MAREE (Chartwell , Apr 2024 - 1 week)
Thanks Dianne Once again Dianne did a great job of looking after Puss. The house was probably cleaner than we left it 🤣. I have no hesitation in recommending her to look after your home and fur baby
 
TINA (Pukekohe North Island, Dec 2023 - 2 nights)
Dianne was fantastic and we highly recommend her to anyone wanting their house and pets looked after with care and consideration! She cared for our rural lifestyle block and two dogs so well while we were away; it was an absolute pleasure to have her stay. Dianne is a lovely person, a great communicator, and we look forward to keeping in touch with her.
 
HELEN (Hamilton North Island, Aug 2023 - 3 1/2 weeks)
Huge thanks to Dianne for looking after my pets and home while I was in the UK for five weeks. She went above and beyond having to take one of my cats to the vet. House was left clean and tidy. Would highly recommend.
 
JUDITH (Dinsdale North Island, Jul 2023 - 1 month 1 week)
Dianne did a sterling job of looking after my home and pets during my recent six week holiday. Cats were well looked after and I came home to a sparkling clean home. I found Diane friendly, trustworthy and true to her word. I would not hesitate to recommend to others.
 
CATHY (Te Rapa North Island, May 2023 - 1 month 2 weeks)
Thank you so much Cathy!! It was such a pleasure to house sit for you xxx
Diane filled our brief for a house sitter perfectly. Came home to a house exactly how we left it with a cat and two dogs exceptionally pleased to see is home after a months seperation. They had been well cared for and that plus the house not burning down was the main expectations for us of a house sitter. Looking forward to using Diane as a house sitter for another holiday planned for October
 
GARY (Hamilton East North Island, Apr 2023 - 4 weeks)
Dianne did a wonderful job looking after our home and cats, I would highly recommend her to house sit for anyone. Very friendly and great communication. All the best Dianne and maybe you can come again sometime

Thanks Susan 😊 I'd love to come back if the opportunity arose xx
Di was a great house sitter, the pets and home were well cared for.
 
MONIQUE (Stanmore Bay North Island, Oct 2022 - 2 weeks)
We were very lucky to have had Dianne housesit for us. She kept the house immaculate and looked after our dog Juno well. One happy dog! Great with communication and is very relaxed and happy personality which made us feel at ease while we were gone. Would totally recommend Dianne!!
 
PETER (Kelston North Island, Oct 2022 - 5 days)
Dianne is a lovely lady who house sat and looked after my cat Frankie. Frankie is a scardy-cat but Dianne knew exactly how to look after her. The house was secure and tidy when I came home. I have no hesitation in recommending Diane and would definitely have her house sit here again.
 
PAULA (Royal Oak , Oct 2022 - 1 week 1 day)
Wow and what a pleasure, great communication and we felt confident that our house and pets had the best attention. Thank you once again. Highly recommended
