About Ngairini

Hi all, 

Please Note I am available in Wellington in term times (school terms) and Auckland in School Holiday times. I am a devoted animal lover. I have a job as an online Counsellor. Please note that my excellently behaved, medium sized Cavalier x Cattle dog Stanley comes along on all of my appointments. My dog is gentle and is never aggressive. Dogs and humans are his friends. Please contact me if you need me to care for your animals. Please note I only offer house sitting at YOUR home, not mine :) Please note this as again, I have had many enquiries asking to drop their dogs to mine, but I cannot have dogs at mine as am on a boat! I can't do doggy day care sorry x

I am very experienced in pet care and house-sitting with over 20 years experience, have many references, a recent police check & a love of animals that is genuine. I am very neat, clean & house-proud. I like to stay in a place that is the same & I would leave it as immaculate as I found it. I can help make your pets happy & keep your home safe and clean. I would truly love & cuddle your pets for you, with errands done. I can water plants, mow lawns, collect mail etc. When I house-sit for you) so I would have the time & devotion to spare for the dogs at your house while there. Your pet/s will be showered with love, attention, acceptance, friendship and kindness while with me. 

They receive my individual attention and are family to me. They will get at least one walk a day including a beach visit or a wet park (securely fenced park on the waters edge so they can have a swim). They'll be comfortable and content in their home environment and you'll receive regular updates on your pet via text/phone calls. I provide total care for your pets in the comfort and safety of home when you are away. I offer many cuddles and reassurance for the dog and for the owner. I am safe, healthy, caring and kind. I have an Australian Federal Police Check and a New Zealand police check. I am a Fully registered Teacher in Australia and New Zealand.

Please note that once again I would likely be bringing along my well trained, quiet, clean and healthy dog and he is not good with cats, guinea pigs, fowl, or pet lizards but he is great with other dogs and humans.

Best regards,

Ngairini.

Ngairini looked after my dogs and house recently. She sent me updates, took them to the beach, played with them & upkept the house. Her dog Stan was no problem.. Thanks Ngairini.

Thanks, Ngairini! The dogs were happy and relaxed when you were staying with them, and the house beautifully cared for. We had a lovely holiday and were able to relax knowing the dogs were being cared for. With thanks, Dee.

I have a very nervous 11year old cocker spaniel named Stella -I rescued her 7 years ago at the age of 4 -she definitely had had a traumatic start to life and I don't take her on holidays with me as her home is her security now -She was very anxious when Ngairini and her beautiful boy Stanley first came often it takes 24 hours or more for her to be comfortable with someone new -but due to the gentle persuasion and giving her space she was soon heading over for pats and hugs. Ngairini has been so terrific in keeping in touch -and checking her for ticks etc and I was able to reassure her that Stella had only just had her Bravecto tablet . Thank you once again for the loving care you have given my girl -very happy to recommend you to anyone who is looking for care for their fur baby cheers Elizabeth, Murrumba Downs. Jan 2022.

Ngairini was such a kind, warm and accommodating pet/house sitter. The house was left in immaculate condition and I couldn't have asked for a better person to look after our dog Taco . 

Thanks again Ngairini :) Erin, Tugun. Dec 2020.

Ngairini and her dog Stan were fantastic and caring of our naughty puppy, even replacing his collar when he chewed up his own. She messaged with pics and updates on our boy, which was very comforting. The house was clean & tidy on our return as we left it and plants were all watered.

Dear Ngairini

Thank you for adoring my dog Bella, for keeping my home safe, neat, tidy and clean and for caring for the gardens, mowing, whipper snippering & leaf blowing. It was a load off my mind knowing I could enjoy my holiday with my dog being loved & home looked after so well. On my return, with only one day off then back to work I really appreciated not having to mow the lawn, having the gardens looked after so well. You watered and cared for my place and dog as you would your own, everything was as I left it, I returned to the same lovely home I left. I am glad you and Stanley enjoyed your stay. Bella loved the two daily walks and cuddles I am sure.

Thanks,

Carol, Coolum,

"Thank you to Ngairini and Stanley for housesitting for us for two weeks. Ngairini took on our housesit at short notice due to a cancellation and we were most grateful. The house, pot plants and gardens were well maintained in our absence. We found her honest, reliable and very friendly. We appreciated her contact with text messages and the follow up with replaying any messages which were important to us. As a matter of convenience, she has since visited and stayed with us and I dog-sat Stanley one day. I consider Ngairini will endeavour to "do a good job" with any house sit that she commits to."

"To Whom It May Concern,

We were lucky enough to have Ngairini house sit for us while we went on holidays for 3 weeks and to look after our beautiful boy, Benji, a Maltese Shih Tzu. Upon our return, it was clear that Stan (Ngairini's dog) and Benji had become the best of friends in a short space of time as they were happily playing the whole time in our company. The house was immaculate on our return and it was clear that Ngairini had taken extra care to keep the house clean, collect the mail, maintained the upkeep on our pool and even mowed our yard! All of this was above and beyond what we expected and we were most thankful for her caring nature. 

We would have no hesitation in recommending Ngairini for anyone who is after someone who is responsible, courteous, well experienced with animals and trustworthy.

Kind Regards,

Donna.'
