Planning a Holiday and Need Your Home & Pets Taken Care Of?

As 'Your Friendly Housesitter', I will make leaving home easy-peasy for any family that will...

>> Save you money
>> Offer you home security, and
>> Alleviate your and your pet's stress levels.

I've offered my experience as a full-time sitter since 2011 around NZ and parts of the world and available to housesit from October 1st, 2019 in the Hawkes Bay.

I work for myself 'at home' as a creative, so if your fur baby enjoys having their hooman around through the day for the company, then we would be a good fit, I'm a tactile, warm and friendly sitter - consider me your pet's favourite Aunt!

Why I Housesit:

I usually correlate my housesitting around the Social Enterprising side of my business, Drawer Full of Giants, where I actively volunteer my creative services to entrepreneurs, small businesses, and non-profits around the world up to 6 months of a year. Housesitting affords me the opportunity to be flexible and nomadic enough to be available to those who ask me to work with them.

If you'd like to to learn more about me, Tania, and peruse through my photos, videos, testimonies, then share my page with your family and friends, please visit:

www.facebook.com...

Book me to help keep Tiddles on the 'straight and narrow' while you're away... and I will attempt to hide the catnip.. promise.

2 wooden beer crates needed

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Does anyone have a couple of beer crates they need or want to get rid of?

I need a couple to make a small entertainment centre that can sit on a set of drawers.

I’m giving away the tv cabinet we have as it’s too big to fit in the room. Now I just need to replace it with something smaller.

I've got the new Menzshed open at the Hastings A&P Showgrounds, thank-you to our Mayor, Sandra Hazelhurst, on 1st September, the ribbon was cut. My health has been failing for a while, and I have resigned as Chairman, and handed over to my Vice Chairman, Robbie. 06 875 093. Sorry, my sense of humour might have got the best of me at times on these posts. I'm sure, Robbie will look after Menzshed, as I have tried to do, since it's beginning in 2015. To all the customers and friends I've made in our growing Menzshed, Hastings: You're the best. Cheers. Ric Coleman. Look after Menzshed, and they will look after you. I te rangimarie. Kia koa.
