Experienced Housesitter available
Hi
Short Notice - sitter available See dates below
I"m an experienced housesitter mature woman who loves animals and can almost call myself an animal whisperer. When I meet animals (pets) for the first time they often come up to me sit on me and hang around so they must be able to sense that I'm a nice person :)
I'm a non-smoker and non-drinker love gardening and live a fairly quiet life. I really enjoy looking after pets as haven't owned one of my own for quite a few years now. I had a ginger tabby for 10 years. I grew up with a menagerie of them including a milking goat and her 2 kids numerous cats dogs ducks sheep chooks guinea pigs canaries and budgies. I've really missed not having my won or so long due to the places I've been living so this has been a wonderful opportunity to be with them again.
I'm now available from
1. 29 - 31 Jan
2. 6 - 10 Feb
3. 27 Mar - 30 April
If you know anyone who needs pets looking after please message me as soon as you can to ensure my availability.

And the 2024 Prospa Local Business Hero is...
A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.
The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.
The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'
Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
Congratulations to...
