Live-in housekeeper and dog minder
We need a live-in housekeeper and dog minder for our beautiful property on Bronte Road East near Mapua
Accommodation is in a fully furnished, modern and comfortable independent apartment with its own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and simply stunning views over the Waimea Inlet.
The apartment is offered rent-free in return for help with housework, cleaning, ironing, lawn mowing, and caring for our large friendly dog – sometimes at weekends. Electricity, gas and unlimited fast internet are included.
A genuine love and experience of dogs is vital.
The position would suit a fit and energetic person who would appreciate the beautiful and tranquil setting. Flexibility is critical, so the position would be best suited to someone retired or without other employment commitments.
There are extensive gardens with direct access to the Inlet - perfect for a keen kayaker. There is a swimming pool and sauna to enjoy.
The apartment has been let as a B&B in the past. Google: Applewood Mapua – you will find it on Booking.com and AirB&B. More recently it has been let on a permanent basis for $595 per week. Although probably more suited to a single person, a couple could be considered.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.3% ... It is complicated
