I have no animals of my own, as I love to travel, so it is lovely to look after someone else's, and get the love and cuddles that way.

I show attention to detail and I am caring and conscientious.
I will respect your property and animals.
I have no ties so can travel at will
I am a non smoker and non drinker.

Chris was an absolute dream house sitter and we feel very lucky to have had her look after our fur kids and home while we travelled abroad. From 3 hour daily walks with our active dogs to coming home to a spotless house, we can't recommend Chris enough. She communicated with us almost daily about how everyone was getting along, with photos of the dogs enjoying their beach time. We felt completely relaxed on holiday knowing everyone and everything at home was being well cared for.
Chris looked after my pooches for me this past week while I was away. They were walked often and were very happy when I got home. :) The house was also left spick and span. There was also regular reports and photos of the "kids" on their walks. Happy to recommend Chris to anybody.
Chris has been amazing. Gizmo the cat was very well fed and contented, fish fed and pond topped up. We were kept updated everyday on how things were going which is always a relief when you are away from home. The house was left cleaner than how we left it, there was not even a leaf on the deck which is most unusual. We would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a trustworthy and very competent house/pet sitter and we would definitely love to have her back again. Thanks again ...

We were so lucky to have Chris come and care for our dogs over the long weekend. She took amazing care of them and our home. She keep in touch daily with updates and went above and beyond caring for our home as well. Highly recommend Chris for any pet sitting opportunities
Chris was amazing with my toy poodle who is very shy as she is only 19 months old and 3.3kg. Chris is very gentle and has a very warm energy about her. My house was perfectly looked after. But that was of no consequence as I was only interested in Izzy's care and safety which was managed beautifully. Highly recommended.
We are so thankful and feel so lucky Chris replied and came to pet and house sit at our place with Mike. She handled the neighbour's turning up with extra random chicks to care for, our rogue rooster being feisty, Mike fixed the broken door on a kitchen cupboard, and the school gate where I look aftter the chickens and orchard. They left our house cleaner than when we left with our laundry all folded and even our odd socks organised. And, most importantly our dog soooo happy and tuckered out ...

Chris was wonderful. She is a lovely lady and she looked after our house and our dog perfectly. In fact I think our dog wanted to leave with her! We would have her back in an instant.
Our sitter was lovely and friendly. We were very happy to leave our pets in her care. When we got home the house was spotlessly clean and tidy. Our pets were very well cared for. We recommend her highly.
My absolute apologies Martin for writing Richard. I am very embarrassed 😳

House Security

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
