Please note, we do not housesit dogs. American couple very interested in pet sitting and housesitting. We are non-smokers, handy home owners, retired professionals (post career adventurers).

We have had many pets, Marjorie up to 23 kittens/cats at one time (outside), rabbits, hamsters, hens, rooster, baby crocodile and turtles having grown up in the country. Martin had cats, hamsters, tropical fish.

We do not have any pets as we travel a lot but have included a photo of our neighbors' pets here in Greece that we enjoy and visit.

We have excellent housesit references and background checks, are quite tidy, respectful, mature.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Marjorie and Martin were great house sitters, good communication throughout and left the flat cleaner than they got it! Our cat Kiki seemed calm and happy when we arrived home so we are pleased with how they took care of everything.

Martin and Marjorie are wonderful people and took excellent care of my house and cat while we were away for a week. They are really easy to contact and plan with and were able to be flexible to fit our plans. Couldn't have asked for a better first experience.

No rating Marjorie and Martin were fantastic sitters. They were approachable, friendly, reliable, and punctual.

Thank you very much for treating our beloved pets as your own. I cannot recommend these two enough!

No rating Marjorie & Martin are a truly couple who take house sitting seriously. On our return we were delighted to find a gleaming home, a well-tended garden and a happy relaxed Roxy, our 4 years old cat. We thoroughly recommend having them. Cecile & Laetitia

No rating Marjorie and Martin sat for me for a fortnight, flying in from Bulgaria to overlap with me one evening before we flew out on our holiday, so we could do a proper handover, and I appreciated this useful arrangement. They were jolly and congenial company, and took instructions very seriously. We came home to find the house immaculate, the animals content and they had even mowed our huge lawn (which takes some doing). There were thoughtful little touches like leaving us bread and milk, as we ... MORE
