House and pet sitter

Denise from Bucklands Beach

I am a mature woman, mother of three adult children and have nine fabulous grandchildren. I am a Life Coach, meditation teacher and facilitate personal growth workshops for mature women and our youth of Aotearoa.

I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to enjoy house & cat sitting for others while they are travelling and need someone who is home for most of the day and night. I grew up with animals as a child and had cats while raising my children. My services allow cats to stay in their home which causes less stress to the pets as well as their owners. I am reliable, loving and can provide your cat with a safe loving environment while you are away.

Currently I offer my cat sitting services in Central, East and South Auckland Regions. Please don't hesitate to PM me if you have any questions.

Here are a few references from previous house/pet sits from clients:

"We recently had the pleasure of having Dee house & dog sit for us. Dee was amazing, she looked after our dog as though it was her own, taking him for lots of walks and sending us updates of their adventures.

We were able to relax on holiday knowing Sparky was in capable & loving hands and the house was with someone we could trust. We came back home to a happy dog, super tidy house and home baking! We highly recommend Dee.
Thank you so much Dee!" Jackie

"I was fortunate enough to meet Dee Petit at the end of last year and have her house sit for us over the Christmas & New Year period. She cared for our cat and home beautifully and we just loved arriving home to a clean, fresh house full of flowers. Our cat was well loved and it was just so nice having the house lived in while we were away. Dee left her special touch while here and it was lovely to come home to. Thank you Dee," Johanna

Kōnae: Find Your Records

Hira Siddiqui from Citizens Advice Bureau Pakuranga/Eastern Manukau

If you want to know how to request records about you or your whānau visit Kōnae: My Records Guide konae.org.nz.

Kōnae has information on more than 60 state and faith-based organisations that have records for over 800 homes and places in Aotearoa New Zealand about people who have been in their guardianship or care.

The Kōnae map shows past and present places in Aotearoa New Zealand like children’s homes, hospitals, orphanages, boarding schools, Youth Justice facilities and many more.

Each place on the map has details about who was responsible for running it and how to get records.

The map can be searched and filtered by
- name
- location
- date range
- religion
- type of organisation.

If you want support to use the website or to find your records, you can get in touch with your local CAB on 0800 367 222, email or message via cab.org.nz, or visit a CAB near you cab.org.nz/find-a-cab

Accessing records can bring up a range of emotions, we encourage you to take care of your wellbeing. You can find suggestions of support at konae.org.nz/support
