Reliable Home & Animal Carer
About
Hello, My name is Jo. I live 6 months in NZ and 6 months in San Diego.
I worked for Waikanae Christian Holiday Park aka El Rancho, where I was in charge of caring for the horses and running the Horse Riding Programme. I dedicated myself to this awesome fulfilling role for 18.5 years.
I know about commitment and can be very relied upon to care for your home and all of your pets needs.
I have extensive experience caring for a wide range of animals, everything from a wayward duck, emu’s, pussy cats, of course horses and dogs, of all sizes, to an over friendly goat and a deer that thought she was a dog. They are all huge fun.
I enjoy reading, jigsaws, walking and are contemplating writing a children’s book from all my time spent with animals and children.
I’ve house and pet sat for friends over the years and have references available.
I look forward to hearing from you. I want you to know that in my care your precious pets and home will be well and truly looked after.
If I’m to home sit around the Auckland area, I would ask if my 23 yr old daughter could come also and stay with me. She is a professional dog walker and loves all animals like her mum, otherwise I’m solo.
