About me .. Happy, non-smoking animal lover. Absolutely love Cats in Particular I've been professionally house sitting for the last 17 years, caring for pets & homes in various locations from Queenstown to rural Thailand, central Auckland, and to the coast of Turkey.

I've looked after cats, dogs, horses, chickens, ducks, and farm animals. I have loved it all & valued the opportunity to be trusted with other people's pets and property.

I've minded luxury homes through to rural cottages, and yachts and welcome all opportunities.

I've learned a lot about animal health, and am quick to spot any health problems, and have experience caring for elderly cats, dogs, horses, & giving medication.

Practical, resourceful, and quick to sort of any unexpected problems that may arise.

Trustworthy, dependable and am very adaptable to different surroundings and quickly settle into a new place and feel at home, and not put off by isolated or rural locations.

I have a car so distances no problem- ( I may charge a little extra for petrol if it’s a big distance) I am available to house sit anywhere in NZ.

We were elated with Eliza, we meet with her prior to her looking after our elderly cat Happy. Happy took to Eliza which put us at ease as normally she would be in hiding when a stranger comes into the house. Eliza was in contact with us the whole time we were away giving updates on our wee cat. Definatley will be using her in the future and would recommend her to others.

Daisy is usually not keen on new people but immediately warmed to cat-whisperer Eliza and was very happy to be looked after by her while I was away for a long weekend. Eliza's regular updates were lovely and very reassuring, and I'd definitely recommend her to take care of your pets. Thank you!
