Very experienced

Andrew and I love caring for pets. We enjoy their company and the added bonus of experiencing local ways of life. We've also found looking after pets and research to be a great fit. We are New Zealand citizens and grew up in Auckland. We are both academics working remotely, which means our schedules are very flexible and conducive to housesitting.

We would like to thank Rachel & Andrew for looking after our house and 3 cats for 4 weeks. Blackie, Snowy & Sammy will miss them. We do appreciate it very much and leaving us with a clean house. Thank you for taking good care of our animals we really do appreciate it. Can definitely recommend them to take care of your pets 🥰

Rachel & Andrew are amazing sitters, they took such great care of our dog Johnny. We had really good comms the whole time and we felt confident the house and dog were in safe hands while we were away. Highly recommend!

Rachel and Andrew are fabulous house sitters. They are great communicators, very respectful, clean and tidy and my dog was looked after very well. Thank you both, I'd have you back any time and highly recommend you to others for house sitting duties.

Rachel and Andrew are a wonderful friendly couple; would not hesitate to recommend for house and pet sitting. They are really lovely to deal with and did a wonderful job of looking after our dog over the summer. They left the house neat and tidy and we are so grateful for their house sit

Rachel & Andrew were so great to be with at home, as my husband was overseas and Cerise just had surgery I needed someone to be with her while I was working so the three of us were sharing the house, so easy to deal, talk and even helped me taking Cerise to the vet for revision while I was working. Definitely a couple worth having as pet/house sitters. Thank you Rachel & Andrew.
 
ANDRES (Vogeltown North Island, Dec 2023 - 1 week 4 nights)
Rachel and Andrew were great house/dog sitters for Harry. We received photos and messages regularly and we could see from these that Harry was in good hands going on long walks and playing ball on the beach . The house was clean and all the washing done when we arrived home. Harry was pleased to see us but rather quiet the next day - think he realised he was back to the same old routine!! Thank you Rachel and Andrew for taking good care of Harry.
 
MARGARET AND WAYNE (Auckland North Island, Nov 2023 - 2 weeks)
Rachel and Andrew were awesome sitters. They kept in contact with pics and updates the whole time I was away which was really appreciated. Came home to a spotless house and a cat that seemed very gutted for them to have left!!! Wouldn’t hesitate to have them sit again. 10/10. Thanks heaps 😊
 
KATE (Wainuiomata North Island, Oct 2023 - 3 weeks)
Rachel & Andrew were amazing, they took great care of our 3-year-old dog and 17-year-old cat. As well as leaving the house nice and clean. We were away for nearly a month and they were really good at keeping us up to date with what was happening at home.
 
MARY-ELLEN (Mount Eden North Island, Sep 2023 - 3 .5 weeks)
Rachel and Andrew were amazing sitters. They cared for our house and dog, Mabel, as if they were their own. Mabel is not always the easiest dog to walk as she is quite reactive, but they managed her very well. She bonded with them very quickly, and they were very warm towards her. The house was immaculate when we returned. I could not recommend Rachel and Andrew more highly. They communicated quickly and clearly and were great to deal.
