I choose this way of life, All my kids are grown up, being self employed and independent … I can work from anywhere- so why not see our beautiful country. Pets make this life less lonely for me, and I just love having “someone” to chat to, walk with, snuggle with, hang out with!

Hayley is lovely person and a wonderful Housesitter. To get to know Hayley, we met at our home the weekend before the sit, and we enjoyed a dinner together the evening prior to our early departure the next day. Communications with Hayley was very good, with photos and texts sent to us of Millie and our regular possum visitors during the sit. Our home was spotless on our return, with even the bed sheets washed and the bed remade. We recommend Hayley to anyone looking for a caring and ...

Hayley was an absolutely wonderful house and pet sitter, and we couldn't recommend her more highly. She met with us before the sit to get to know us and our dogs, Coco (rescue toy Cavoodle) and Teddy (energetic Cavoodle), which immediately put us at ease. She kept us updated with regular messages and videos, and took wonderful care of Coco's eye by cleaning it daily and administering her drops. Hayley also watered the plants, got the mail, put the bins in and out, left the house spotless, and ...

Hayley also watered the plants, got the mail, put the bins in and out, left the house spotless, and even left us a lovely card. Despite injuring her ankle on a walk, she stayed positive and never complained. The whole housesit couldn't have gone more smoothly. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely caring house and pet sitter. Thank you Hayley.
