Kia Ora! This August we are looking to find a couple or person who are willing and able to care for our two energetic and loveable rescue dogs. We usually walk them at the local beach. We also have 3 older chickens who may be laying the odd egg or 2 or may be not. We also have a very tolerant cat who rules the roost in her quiet way. We live in a restored 100+ year old villa. It's heated with two fire places (but we usually only use one of them) and has a heat transfer system to distribute the warmth. There will be access to a car if needed. There are also several sheep on the 2 acres but they will be cared for by a farmer. We just keep an eye on them and give them the odd treats and pats and top up water troughs if needed. We are rurally located but only a 15 minute walk to local shops/supermarket and a 10 minute drive to the beach. Waiuku is 65KM from central Auckland. We look forward to meeting our future caring humans who will be looking after our beloved fur and feather family.

Pimm & Jane have a lovely historic house, it was nice & cosy, & very close to the beach. I went on daily walks/runs at the beach with the dogs, it was lovely. Another bonus is their house is in the Country, so it was nice, quiet & relaxing. The dogs loved to get out in the yard & run on the beach, they ... MORE
