Loving and Responsible Pet Sitters for Peace of Mind While You’re Away

favoriteWhy we love house sitting

We enjoy connecting with pets and will do everything we can to make them feel content while you are away.

Hi there fellow pet lovers. I am a graphic and web designer and Chris is a High School Teacher, we are interested in people, the natural world and other cultures. In our earlier lives we have travelled around the world and have been to many countries. We love animals, having had pets most of our lives.

In our earlier lives we have travelled around the world and have been to many countries. We love animals, having had pets most of our lives.

i started out with a puppy dog Tammy at 7, cat Tiffy when I was 8 years old, then cat Tisha as a teen, and then a Burmese called Mr Wong and later Magnus the family British Shorthair. When my children were little we had chooks, guinea pigs and two Saanen kid goats (which ended up being rather large and very talented escape artists). Recently the family cat Magnus has moved in with my daughter. I am going to be travelling around a bit and will be getting to know other people's pets I hope, very soon.

Chris had cats ( Puss Puss & Kitty Kitty) as a child and when his own children were growing up he had a Lhasa Apso Cross Maltese called Toto, and a Maltese Shih Tzu called Leila, Later on two Cocker Spaniels Rubi and Rusti kept his older children company.

Review

Fabulous from the moment they applied! Communication was so wonderful to receive as it depicted little snippets of our pets and their quirky personalities. We returned to a sparkling home and relaxed pets. We’d recommend in a heartbeat and welcome back anytime.
Thanks so much Karen and Ade for your kind words - we had a fab time
Garden Maintenance

Green garden!

Make sure the garden and pot plants are thriving when you get back - get a house sitter.
