About
By way of introduction, hello, I am Jo
I am just back from Melbourne having house sat for three gorgeous cats and two extra rescue cats added to the sit at the last minute. Oh what fun we had!
I’m a quiet living 52 year old who doesn’t drink or smoke and am house proud. I am an artist (work from home) and love to housesit, petsit and paint.
I will look after your home & pets like they were my own, if not better. I genuinely love animals.
I like house owners to arrive home to a sparkling clean house and their plants & pets having been caringly attended to.
I have the kiwi “know how”, maturity and experience to deal with anything unusual that arises, and always contact owners should it be needed.
I have lived in Auckland, Christchurch, the UK, Australia and the Cayman Islands, am well travelled NZ-wide & worldwide, and am now based in Wanaka, NZ when not housesitting. I prefer house sits near the sea, but will consider any location. (I cover my own travel expenses to get to you, as you would expect).
I love pets, and would love to spoil them with cuddles or walks, or whatever their owners would like me to do for them. Who knows, you may even arrive home to find I have done a portrait of them.
I enjoy fostering kittens for the local cat rescue charity when not house sitting, so am quite familiar with the needs of shy kittens/cats.
Please do message me if you have a housesit you would like to chat to me about. I am happy to answer any questions you may have and look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks for considering me as your sitter.
