Wanted: House sitter extraordinaire

Yuri from Wadestown

I'm away from mid-March to mid-April and need a special person to look after my home and two little dogs. The dogs are well-behaved, healthy, and need two walks a day. Looking for someone who has experience with dogs, works from home or is home most of the time, can drive, and is reasonably fit, because the house is 90 steps up from the street. It's a sunny one-bedroom near Otari-Wilton Bush with a heat pump and bottomless cup fibre broadband. The garden is small, but on three levels, and there is always weeding and watering to do! Ideally you can be flexible about the finish date in case of travel disruptions. If this appeals to you or someone you know, please PM me. (Note: This is a free house sit, not a paid position).

Healing isn’t linear...

The Chiro from The Chiro - Johnsonville

Healing isn’t linear and it is okay to have moments of struggle alongside triumphs 😖🥳

Remember, every day is a step closer to where we want to be.
Commit, persevere. Embrace the journey 😤
