If you prefer the peace-of-mind of 'in-home' care, I can help with that.
I’m currently house and 4 x cat sitting in Kohimarama for the next 3 weeks and hoping to help another household late Oct/November with their beloved feline/s. If you don't have any pets but prefer your home looks lived-in, I can help with that too.
ABOUT ME
I’m nearing retirement and planning my VanLife adventures. I will soon buy and fit-out my own van before heading off to finish hiking the rest of the great walks and Bikepacking wherever. I currently work full time as a Documentation Specialist for a software company Monday to Friday in the Auckland CBD and ride to work most days. I do gardening, mow lawns, pull weeds, clean pools…whatever is required to keep your home looking ‘loved and lived in’.
SUBURBS
Any homes located in or on the fringes of these suburbs: St Heliers, Mission Bay, Orakei, Glendowie, Remuera, Meadowbank, Kohimarama, St Johns, Stonefields, Newmarket, Parnell, Ponsonby, Herne Bay, Pt Chev.
I would also be interested in suburbs around Epsom/Greenlane.
Happy to pay for water, gas, power and internet usage.
Please reply to this post or just send me a personal message via Messenger or Facebook - I'm very easy to find.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
