51, Research Scientist
Ready to be your new super sitter!
I am a research scientist in public health and full-time digital nomad. This means I can work from your home, as long as you have a decent internet connection!
Your possessions and home will be safe with me. I am a three-time homeowner myself, and I know how important it is to find a trustworthy sitter in your absence!
*About Me*
I am from the US and have visited all 50 states. Now I'm looking forward to exploring Aotearoa! I arrive in Auckland on 5 December 2024.
I love all animals and plants. All the beings in my care will be looked after as if they were my own. Rituals and routines are good for your pets & plants, so tell me what they are in your home, and I’ll do my best to maintain them.
I have looked after and/or lived with more than 18 dogs and another 16 cats in my lifetime so far, and have completed basic dog training classes and Good Canine Citizen certification. I also love looking after aquariums, farm animals, and gardens.
Calm and level-headed in emergencies and know basic first aid. Handy and know my way around solar and grey-water systems. Trained in permaculture principles.
Lisa is wonderful! You will not regret having her as a sitter. I suspect my dogs love her more than they love me, actually. I came home to happy healthy dogs, plants and fish that were still alive (seems like the minimum but you'd be surprised how often I've come home to dead plants in the past), and a beautifully clean house. Lisa was a dream and I hope she is willing to come back in the future.
Lisa is fantastic! A true animal lover and excellent, responsible house sitter. Good communication before, during, and after our trip. We will definitely ask her back!
Lisa is extremely personable and friendly. She is passionate about providing the very best care to both the home and the pets entrusted to her. Her communication is prompt and clear.
Lisa cared for our house and three cats for five weeks. She routinely sent updates about the cats and took care of any requests we had. Our three cats adored her. She left our house spotlessly clean.
I strongly recommend Lisa for all of your house and pet sitting needs.
Lisa went over and above while caring for our home, garden and dogs. She was tidy, communicated daily, water our plants, and was stellar with the dogs. We have two active Standard Poodles, who we kept entertained, given lots of attention and affection, played with in the backyard and walked daily.
Lisa gave daily meds to the dogs with no problem, and even did triage to our male who licked himself aggressively and created a sore.
Lisa maintained our daily schedule with the dogs, which means ... MORE
Had a great experience with Lisa. It was my first time using house sitters, and I'll definitely be asking Lisa again. In fact, it's not shown here, but I extended my vacay for another week beyond June 18th, and I felt confident knowing my dogs were in great hands. Lisa was really caring of how the dogs were feeling, their moods, their behavior. One of my dogs had a medical issue, and I was impressed by how Lisa handled that. I also got updates every day, which was nice. As said, I will ... MORE
Lisa was wonderful! Great communicator, very patient and understanding. Easy going, dogs and house looked great when we returned. We recommend her without reservation.
Make sure the garden and pot plants are thriving when you get back - get a house sitter.
