ian & nikki

We are retired and enjoy looking after others homes and pets. We have always owned a cat, have had a variety of dogs, raised sheep and hens and at one time budgies. We consider ourselves very adaptable as regards where we house sit and the pets and animals we look after.

We are New Zealanders. I'm a kiwi and Nikki is originally from Birmingham, England.
We are homeowners in Wellington and have owned homes in various parts of NZ. We have a variety of skills from gardening, handyman, and animal care which would enable us to ensure any home we sit is well looked after.
Nikki was a physiotherapist. I retired as a director in education in the field of adult education a few years ago and since then we have had housesitting ventures to the UK, Ireland, Crete, Canada and Australia. During those we have looked after a wide variety of dogs and cats of all ages and differing needs so we know a lot about them. We also have been dog owners ourselves.
We are non-smokers.

We are very flexible on where we reside and have already house sat in rural locations as well as central city. We have references available that support us as trustworthy people who will do the extras that show consideration for home owners property. We are non-smokers and can provide references when required. We are happy to talk over your house sitting needs.
