About Jo

I am a mature and responsible Tauranga lady in her 50s who absolutely dotes on animals. After my pet passed away and years of looking after my friends and neighbours' pets, I decided to start house/pet sitting. 

As a previous business owner/manager, I lived in the UK for 14 years before returning to NZ 9 years ago. Being responsible and respectful by nature, I looked for the same when employing a petsitter so I understand the need to have someone you can trust. I put my heart and soul into looking after animals so you can rest assured that your family member is having my undivided attention.

I will send regular updates and photos and remain contactable while you're away.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions and I look forward to hearing from you!

Please note. At this stage I am only walking one dog in one visit (for dogwalking)

House Sitting
Athalae, 2024-02-18

Jo was exactly as she states in her profile - conscientious, caring and reliable. Our large family of pets were happy and in great condition when we returned home after a week away. Jo had kept our vege garden tended and left the house immaculately. We appreciated daily updates and photos. We would recommend Jo to anyone who wants a high-quality sitter caring for their home and pets.
