Global traveller and cat lady
About
Hi!
I am a corporate lawyer who is currently on a break, though I do some work here and there remotely. I’ve lived in Singapore for six years and Hong Kong, Moscow and Australia before that. I’ve travelled all over (for work and fun) and have house sat in Peru, Norway, Singapore and Australia for cats and dogs. And now for cats, dogs, bunnies, sheep, chickens and fish in New Zealand!
I am staying in New Zealand long term and have been house sitting on a full time basis since arriving in NZ in September 2022. I have loved looking after everyone’s pets!
I am based in the South Island but will do a trip to the North Island for a few months from the end of Feb 2024.
I absolutely love cats! I can’t have my own as I travel a lot so I’ve found house sitting to be a great way to be able to spend some quality time with kitties! I’m very happy to look after other animals too but I am definitely a bit cat obsessed!
**My experience**
– Have looked after many different cat breeds including Burmese (my favourite!), Siamese, Tonkinese, Ragdolls, Persian, Birman, Bengal, farm cats/non-breed, rescue cats, both indoor and outdoor, elderly and young!
– Looked after dog breeds including Shiba Inu, Shih tzu mix, GSP, Greyhound, Chihuahua, Dachshund, Jack Russell, Labrador.
– Love looking after lifestyle blocks, have looked after 150 sheep plus chickens.
– Have experience giving tablet medications to dogs and liquid medications to cats.
– Over 25 sits completed to date!
**What you can expect**
– I will take great care of your pets and home!
– I spend quite a lot of time at ‘home’ so your pets would have plenty of attention.
– Your home will be nicely cleaned for your return.
– I send regular updates with photos so that you don’t miss your little ones too much and can be comfortable knowing they are doing well!
I have some great references and a police clearance, am a non-smoker and a non-drinker. I’m a pretty quiet person, I enjoy spending time at home, going for walks in nature, reading, learning, meditating and exploring the world.
Please get in touch if you’d like to know more about me. I’m happy to do a video call to connect.
Thanks!
