(Free) house and pet-sitting

Alyssa from Petone

Hi everyone, if you are looking for a pet or house sitter over the next wee while, myself (Lyss) and my partner (Corinna) are available from October 17th. We are experienced house and pet-sitters and would be delighted to look after your fur children and home while you are away!

Some reasons we might be a good fit:
• flexible work and study arrangements, so we can be home when needed for your pets (most of the time at least one of us can be home). Corinna is a lecturer at Victoria University and I am studying by distance.
• experienced dog and cat owners, and able to care for a wide range of pets
• two sets of hands
• we don't charge to sit
• responsible, reliable, tidy and clean - we are sitting while saving for a house deposit, so will care for your home as if it was our own.
Up
Longer sits preferred, but we will happily consider all! Please get in touch if you think we would suit your needs. References available too :)

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
