favoriteWhy we love house sitting

We love housesitting, to enable people to holiday and leave their furry family to stay in their own environment

We are a very active retired couple with experience in caring for animals on farming, lifestyle and town properties.

We are happy to exercise any animals/pets, as we love the outdoors and happy to attend any gardening, lawns etc that need attention.

We are able to offer a number of referees.

Endorsement
John and Sheryl have been the most fantastic couple to have in our house, I would recommend them to anyone. We have had a number of House Sitters but they were just fantastic, besides the house being beautifully clean and tidy when we returned, our spoiled needy dog was the happiest he has ever been.

Thank you so much Sherly for taking care of my house and animals while i was away. I would recommend Sherly for any future house sitting situations as she is reliable and easy to communicate with. Cheers Jenny
John turned up early and alone, and left early so I didn’t get the couple I wanted and a reason wasn’t given. Also clearly John is a man of few words and not into phones but he made good contact when rung directly. The dog seemed happy, the plants were well cared for, everything was exactly where I had left it and I’m very happy with the house sit. John even expertly stacked my wood for me, bless him. It would have been nice to have a debriefing and a bit more feedback with the dog but other ...

Sheryl did a fantastic job caring for Zac and our home. Her communication was excellent and very relaxed having Sheryl in our home. Very grateful to get away for a break.
Sheryl was an excellent sitter and would highly recommend. Communication was great and sent regular updates on our boy so we felt very relaxed and happy and I know that Alfie was very content with Sheryl looking after him. Thank you so much Sheryl for looking after our home and Alfie so well. Without doubt I would recommend that if Sheryl offers to housesit or look after your pets you should accept her offer. Hope to see you and your husband John sometime in the future and always welcome ... MoreSheryl was an excellent sitter and would highly recommend.

Hi level of trust and satisfaction with Sheryl and John. Highly recommend. Wonderful care of our dog and home
Communication was helpful and timely - unfortunately they withdrew from the house sit due to an injury.
We are so appreciative of our wonderful sitters Sheryl & John. We arrived home to happy, content animals and a beautifully clean home. We got to spend 7 days away without worry. Thank you so much.
Cant thank these lovely people enough!! They both went above and beyond their requirements. Very thankful to have them in our house and take care of our pets and things while we were away. Definitely welcome back anytime

John and Sheryl were the most fantastic couple I could ever hope to find. They went far beyond the call of duty with regards my property and the care of my possessions. I came home to an immaculate house and my two boys were very sorry to see them go. I wish them the very best and look forward to welcoming them back in the future. Thank you both.
Peace of Mind

Happy you!

With a house sitter looking after your pets, house and garden - you can really relax. Happy days.
