favoriteWhy I love house sitting

I don’t like seeing pets left at unfamiliar kennels when they are used to being part of your everyday life, I can continue the attention while you go on that dream holiday/catch up with family .

Review

Karen was a wonderful house sitter who looked after our house so well. Our dogs fell in love with her and all of our gardens and plants were looked after so very well. All of the chooks, birds and quails with their 6 brand new babies were well fed and looked after also. Karen communicated very well both prior to the house sit and with updates whilst we were away. I would highly recommend Karen to house sit and would gladly have her return for our future house sits.
