I'm a New Zealander. My partner Joel is Canadian, having lived in NZ for some time. Joel is in British Columbia right now and I am about to join him. We are basically testing the water to see if we want to relocate to Canada permanently. Both of us are creative professionals. I'm a food writer/filmmaker, Joel is a camera operator in the film industry. We are reliable, honest, kind, resourceful and tidy! Good at problem solving and adept in most situations. So you can relax knowing that your home and animals are receiving the utmost care and attention.
Why we want to house sit
We love animals, travelling, meeting new people and and having the opportunity to live and experience interesting new places rather than visit as a tourist.
Our experience
I'm energetic with a happy calm personality and find that animals trust and bond with me very easily. I have lots of experience with cats and dogs, but also grew up on a small hobby farm, with ponies, chickens, bees and organic vegetable gardens, so am comfortable in rural situations. Joel is great with animals too, particularly good with dogs. He has owned many, but also lived rurally and helped care for horses. We have travelled extensively around New Zealand housesitting and taken care of everything from highly sensitive pedigree cats, to cute lap dogs, large farm dogs, horses, rabbits, goats and hens. We've encountered lots of different scenarios and know how to care for animals properly, make them comfortable and happy, if they are missing their owners & what to do should any issues arise.
We are both non smokers, lead an active healthy lifestyle, love nature and being outdoors. Joel is extremely practical and versatile, good at fixing things around the house or taking care of grounds. We have both renovated and landscaped our own homes are very house proud. I'm a bit of a homebody, like to be in an tidy clean environment and will leave your home in immaculate condition as I would my own. References available on request. I have only just joined this site and am in the process of accumulating them.
