Respectful, friendly, clean, animal-loving sitters

Kristyn: 36,

Dave: 37,

Kia Ora! Dia dhuit! Hey! How's it going?

Our names are Dave (age 37) and Kristyn (age 36).

In 2011 Dave left his home in Cork, Ireland to go on a working holiday to British Columbia, Canada. It didn't take long before his visa turned into a citizenship. He had quickly fallen in love with the Canadian wilderness and all it had to offer: tramping, camping, free diving, spear fishing, foraging, and... Kristyn. Kristyn is a Canadian, who also really loves spending time in nature. When we first met she was living and working in a National Park as a Ranger. Our first date we hiked to a turquoise glacial lake and watched as a mama Grizzly bear and her two cubs splashed around to cool off in the summer heat. The rest is history.

We aspire daily to be kind, compassionate, and humble. We're a fan of slow-living and slow-travel. We love discovering the soul of the places we spend our time in. That's why housesitting is such a great fit for us.

With us as your sitters your home will be very well looked after. We are both very respectful and live by the principles of Leave no Trace.

While we are sitting for you we won't be working, so your animal babies will be lavished full time with love and attention. We are experienced dog and cat sitters, having sit small and large breeds, puppies to seniors, kittens and cats. We've also had cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, tarantulas, and hamsters of our own. We absolutely love all animals and are open to learning how to specifically care for yours.

We will be available throughout 2024 for short and long term house sits.

Kristyn & Dave were amazing house sitters. They came up the day prior to our departure and visited in the afternoon to meet our pets and then came back again that evening, as we requested to feed the pets as having a giant breed dog feeding is quite specific. They kept in touch while we were away as needed, with an update on how the first day went. Our dog had a slight upset tummy on the 2nd day and they were great at checking in with us and then prepared him some cooked chicken and rice for ... MORE
