Single56, past Garden Centre Owner/Operator
Kind and respectful mature woman (New Zealander) available to look after your house and pets and gardens if required.
Travelled and lived full-time in a lovely motorhome (with my beautiful dog) for most of 2022, throughout NZ. During this time I completed several house/pet-sits, as a registered member of Kiwi House Sitters.
Unfortunately I had to say goodby to my beautiful Golden Retriever at the start of 2023, who was my faithful companion for 13 years. So I decided to finally head across to Australia mid 2023 as I've wanted to discover the Queensland area properly for a long time, in the hope of finding somewhere I would like to settle. Hence it made perfect sense to continue house-sitting, in the hope of spending time within the community that you live, and being able to give my full attention and care to your loved animals.
I am lucky enough not to need to work at present. However, I have a long history in owning and operating garden centres (of which I have adored) and absolutely love anything to do with plants and gardening. Therefore I'm also more than happy to do any maintenance work in your garden and/or mow lawns etc. while you are away.
I love Noosa so much that I have just purcahsed a small apartment here in Noosa, so that I have a home base inbetween house/pet-sitting jobs. However, I love having the company of pets around me, so I still wish to continue to with selected house-sitting jobs. As mentioned above, I had a beautiful golden retriever by my side for the past 13 years, and until a couple of years ago I also had a lovely tabby cat for close to 18 years! Needless to say, I adore animals and have lots of experience with dogs, cats and chickens!
I am extremely house-proud and organised by nature, and accordingly I can 100% guarantee you that I will treat your home and property with complete care and respect.
I'm fit and healthy and a non-smoker. I have my own car so transportation is no problem.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you would like to discuss any potential house-sitting jobs you would like me to consider. I'm also more than happy for you to contact any of my previous house-sitters if you would like further details from them.
AFP National Police Check Certificate has been completed and I'm happy to email a copy to you. I'm also more than happy to privately supply you with any of my previous house-sitters phone numbers (they have all granted me permission to do this), should you wish to talk to them directly.
I look forward to chatting with you. I'm happy to do this by video call while I'm in NZ, if you feel we may be a good fit for each other.
I could not have asked for a better house sitter than Rowena. She really cared for our cat baby Jemima and kept our home beautifully clean and tidy. Rowena did a wonderful job with our very large garden. It’s looking great. Thank you for your love and care Rowena. Looking forward to catching up with you again. 💙🐈⬛🌻
Rowena has house sat for us before and she always does an excellent job. Ringo our dog, loves her. Our house and yard is always neat and clean. Highly recommend.
Highly recommend Rowena. She carefully looked after our house, and kept our "ïnside only" cat purrfectly happy.
She is very considerate, and leaves the house immaculate. And importantly listens and follows instructions super well. We will certainly use Rowena again in the near future.
Rowena did a fabulous job housesitting for us recently. Ringo, our golden retriever was totally cared for and his walks twice a day. The house was tidy and the lawn was mowed. Rowena is also doing a 3 week sit in April for us.
My husband and I went to Europe for 7 weeks and we left Bunny our three year old Fox Terrier in the wonderful care of Rowena. Rowena was amazing in every aspect. Our home was cared for on every level, infact the garden was better than when we left. Rowena walked Bunny twice a day and made friends with our neighbours and a lot of the beach goers. Communication was wonderful and she kept us up to date. She helped us out with allowing a tradesman to enter our home to fix a problem, more than happy ... MORE
Rowie is a fabulous housesitter & beautiful person. She came over to meet Buster, myself & the house prior to going away which put me at ease. Whilst away, she was a great communicator & sent me pics of Buster daily. I then came home to a spotless house, happy pussycat & well pruned plants. Would highly recommend (which means she is always now so busy 😔). Thanks Rowie!
Rowena is personable, professional, trustworthy and our pup Maggie absolutely loved her. We weren’t sure what to expect as it was our first time having a house sitter, and we were delighted and surprised at how easy and lovely she made our experience. Communication was great and we came home to a beautifully tidied house. Our young pup Maggie is full of beans and not many people would have the patience and experience to look after her in such a loving and kind way like Rowena did. We would ... MORE
Rowena and molly took amazing care of both my home and dogs..

Rowena -house-sit our property for 4 weeks as we drove up our driveway the lawns we were all SMILES. Rowena had mowed the lawns and had done lots of pruning and gardening our place looked AMAZING. She had even planted up my poly-house with veges for spring . Our cat had been sick while we were away but we returned to a very happy cat and Rowena had sent us photo's and message of Ollie. My home was lovely and clean and fresh flowers to Welcome us. We would highly recommend Rowena to others ... MORE
A big thank you to Rowena for looking after our house and dogs. She is very easy to get on with and obviously took great care of both the house and dogs. She made us aware of a minor issue with one of them and was able to remedy issue.
An unexpected plus was finding she had washed an cleaned our car. We can highly recommend her.
Rowena and her dog Molly recently looked after our house, property and animals for 11 days. Rowena was absolutely amazing, communication was easy, house was left sparkling, pets were well loved and the few extra touches she left where great to come home too, and extremely appreciated!
Rowena was very easy to get on with and I felt confident leaving everything in her capable hands, including our very active dog! I have no hesitation recommending Rowena and wouldn't hesitate having her back.
There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
