Look no further! This house sitting pair were outstanding! Beyond our expectations. Our dog was very well taken care of and they went out of their way to look after her. A delightful young couple, polite, respectful and left the house perfectly. It was our first experience using a house sitting service and we were delighted. We would highly recommend them for any future house sits and they understand animal needs perfectly.

JENNY (South Hill South Island, Sep 2024 - 6 nights)
Kiannah took absolutely amazing care of our cat Patsy, and also our house. We returned to a spotless house and clean sheets on our bed which was so lovely after a long journey home. Communication prior to the sitting job was excellent as well as during our time away. I would highly recommend Kiannah to look after your home and animals.

Kiannah and Liam provided amazing care for Eddie.
We were given regular updates of the fun they got up too.
On our return Eddie was relaxed and well exercised. We could feel the love they gave him.
The house was tidy.
Thank you so much for allowing us to have a relaxing holiday and looking after Eddie.
ASHLEIGH (Lincoln South Island, Jun 2024 - 4 weeks)
Kiannah & Liam did an awesome job of looking after Zoey and the house. They made themselves at home which was what we wanted, so they experienced it was theirs for the time we were away. Both Kiannah & Liam created such a bond with Zoey, that it will be hard to say goodbye - (they are staying till monday.) You guys will be missed x Good luck with your future travels and we will stay in touch x
INGRID (Ngongotaha North Island, May 2024 - 1 week)
