Our Story
Katie started her solo mission in 2020, operating from the garage of her home, with a property portfolio of under ten. Housekeepers would come and go to collect equipment in between stays, and everything the business needed to run could be found here.
With quick growth, the garage became quickly outgrown and Katie set out to find the first relocation destination. As some of you will remember, the first Perfect Stays office was located in Merivale, Christchurch. Katie and Anika (accounts and business support manager) worked away in a small 4×4 office juggling multiple roles. This lasted a couple of years until it was time to move again!
At the beginning of 2023, the office moved to where we are now. With the current office ground floor working as what we call the ‘depot’. Which operates seven days a week as the home base for all of our housekeepers to collect fresh linen and cleaning supplies as needed. Above the depot is our office! A small team working together Monday – Friday to create a seamless guest experience and constantly working towards improving and innovating our systems.
The team is always on the move, out and about spending time in the houses under our portfolio to seek improvements and ensure they are presented perfectly. There truly is no average working day in the Perfect Stays office!
But it doesn’t stop at the usual Monday to Friday. Someone from our team is always ready to answer your phone calls and assist you at any time of the day, every day!
The Perfect Stays portfolio now has over 60 properties that are managed by our team of six with a level of care, love and attention that larger companies simply can’t match.
