Experienced Home Minder & Animal Profess

More information about this house sitter

Hi, I'm Candice, an experienced house/pet sitter and animal-care professional. I've been sitting for almost two years and have built great relationships with homeowners, including repeat sits. I'm currently completing a four-month sit in Sydney caring for two beautiful older dogs for a family I've previously sat for, and I take enormous pride in being someone people trust with their homes and much-loved pets.

Animals have always been a huge part of my life, both personally and professionally. I've owned and run a pet hotel, worked as a canine hydrotherapist, managed Greyhound rehabilitation and rehoming, and hold a Pet First Aid certificate. I now work remotely in fundraising for SPCA New Zealand, so I'm home for much of the working week and am confident caring for animals of different ages, sizes and needs.

I'm also a qualified Reformer Pilates instructor and Flexologist, and I'm active, responsible, tidy and respectful. As a homeowner in New Zealand who rents my own property out, I understand firsthand how much trust is involved in leaving your home in someone else's care. I treat every home I stay in with the same care and consideration I'd want for my own.

While my animal-care background makes me particularly well suited to pet sits, I'm equally happy to consider house-only sits. Whether I'm caring for pets, plants or simply keeping your home safe and looked after, my priority is for you to go away knowing everything is in capable hands. Read more...
