About Catherine & Athen
Kia ora!
My fiancé and I are experienced house and pet sitters who adore animals.
Athen works as builder so is great with handling all the practical aspects of caring for a home. He has a real way with animals and pets bond with him quickly. (I joke that your animals may become more clingy than when you left them!)
I have a background in childcare, having worked for many years as a nanny, looking after two boys, their lovely labradoodles, and senior burmese cats. I am meticulous about home care, keeping your space tidy and welcoming for when you return.
We began petsitting as a way to save our deposit for our first home, and now have over eighteen months experience befriending pets of all shapes and sizes! Being animal lovers, we are delighted that we can spend time doing something we love while we don't have any pets of our own.
Please reach out if you have any other questions about us, we would love to hear from you.
Warmly,
Athen & Cat
