Claire

Hi there,
I am looking for a house-sitter to look after my cottage, animals & lifestyle block in Glenhope. Beautiful outlook over to Kahurangi National Park edge. Quiet location.

We spent a truly relaxed week at Claire's little cottage. It's almost possible to be hermetic if you wish. Surrounded by a pretty garden and natural habitat. The sound of Hope River waters, bird song, bees and Claire's happy hens being the only interruptions! Claire is approachable, considerate, straightforward and kind. With a great sense of humour. The sleepover was cosy with everything you need available. Thank you Claire for opening your home and your heart. Best wishes Karen and ... MORE

A beautiful spot with the elements, trees, birdsong, river, rocks.. and a grounding routine of animal care for Claire's lucky well-loved animals. Claire was gracious and supportive in all manner of our exchange and I would recommend the experience :-)

Myself and my partner Austen really enjoyed house/pet sitting at Claire's place. She's very kind, friendly and communication was always easy. Her home is in a beautiful location next to the Kahurangi National Park, where she has a large garden/smallholding. We had a great time looking after her gorgeous rascal kitten called Tigger, her two goats, cow and chickens. She also gave us home grown vegetables and eggs from her chickens which was much appreciated!
