Hi there! I'm Nicole, and I live in the scenic Snells Beach, however am willing to travel around. At 31 years old, I have immersed myself in the rewarding world of pet and house sitting full-time since May 2023. During this time, I have had the pleasure of caring for a variety of pets, including dogs of both older and younger ages. I have also looked after cats, ranging from those that are strictly indoor to those that enjoy free roaming. Additionally, I've even taken care of pigs and chickens, adding to my diverse experience.
Prior to my current endeavor, I spent the last three years thriving as an on-the-ground Property Manager for holiday homes scattered throughout Auckland and Leigh. My responsibilities included managing and overseeing more than 80 properties at any given time, ensuring the security and well-being of these homes. Now, I am primarily based at home most days—wherever that may be—investing my time and effort into building my companies, Easy-Clean, John Three Sixteen, The Food Chauffeur, and NS Photography.
Alongside my past year+ of experience across 10 different house and pet sits (with some of them being repeat sits), I also had the distinct privilege of being the proud, loving fur baby mum of a beautiful golden Labrador named Bella. For 14 wonderful years, she graced my life until she sadly passed away in 2020. From the moment I moved out of my childhood home at 18 years old, I became her sole carer and mother, and she was truly my favorite being on earth. This experience has deeply ingrained in me the understanding that our pets are not merely animals; they are beloved family members. Throughout my life, I have always been surrounded by cats, and I currently have a lovely, beautiful kitty named Bilbo, who lives with my family.
Like my current clients who have entrusted me to manage their properties for many years, I would be immensely appreciative and truly grateful for the opportunity to look after yours! I possess a vast knowledge of how to take excellent care of a property, and rest assured, your animals would receive an abundance of love, companionship, and cuddles while in my care.
