  Description

  Kia ora. My name is Emma and I am looking for a very responsible pair to house and dog sit (active 2yo golden retriever) for me in January 2025 for approximately 2 weeks. We live in Waiuku, a short walking distance to the local shops and 1 hour drive from central Auckland (note public transport to central Auckland is not easy nor quick).

  What else ...

  Sandspit beach (Manukau harbour) is a 10 minute walk away, a lovely spot to visit and swim! Karioitahi beach is an 8 minute drive away (black sand West Coast beach). Waiuku township is less than 10 minutes walk alongside the Waiuku river. Awhitu Peninsula is also very beautiful. Auckland is a 1 hour drive and public transport is not very good (involves buses and train).
