Hi. we are looking for a sitter as we have a 5 month old puppy. (small dog)He is toilet trained & very quiet! There is a park/reserve at the bottom of our street. Bus stop (on main route) at top of our street. Beautiful beaches are a 5 minute drive, Takapuna a 7 minute drive & central city less than 10 minutes.(not peak hour of course!)We also have a budgie, who needs very little attention. Our house is old & in original condition, but clean & comfortable. There is wireless broadband, Sky TV, dishwasher, microwave, laundry, land line, & all power & water will be provided.Our puppy is used to us being out at work/school etc.. but we would like him staying here in his home environment. There are no lawns to mow as we have a contractor in to do them. Only other task I'd require would be for you to bring the mail in daily.
