We are a fit and active couple of partly-retired, senior New Zealanders, and extremely "well-trained" house sitters, who have been doing regular house sitting in NZ and the UK over the past 15 years - in amongst working overseas. We've lost count of the number of homes we've looked after, dogs walked, cats cuddled, livestock moved, ducks/chickens fed and watered, gardens tended and lawns mowed etc. We love travelling and find that house and pet sitting gives us the chance to spend time in, and explore, different areas, get to know them well, and meet some fabulous homeowners and their furry or feathered families.
We know that it is a big undertaking to entrust your home and pets to the care of someone you don't know - especially when we live out of the UK. However, we have done this many times and can have Skype/Facetime conversations. Some of the people whose homes we have cared for have reported that the "cats didn't even miss us" or "our dog is still waiting around for the interesting kind of walks you took her on"! We assure you we will care for your home and 'families' as if they were our own. We have several references from house owners attached to this profile. If you would like to speak to a referee, to reassure you about our background and ability to look after your home and pet/s in the best possible way, that could be arranged.
So if you need someone to care for your house, and/or a cat or 2, some chooks and/or have a garden to tend to, horses to feed or sheep to move etc - we'd love to help out.
