Our experience

10+ years

Alan and I both grew up with pets. Since being together we have had boxer dogs and we also had birds and fish until we moved into an apartment. Over the years we have enjoyed housesitting for friends and family and looked after their pets

It was an absolute pleasure having Sylvia look after our pets, the house was left in a perfect condition and animals we very well cared for. I will definitely be using Sylvia in the future and highly recommend her to care for your fur baby's.

Why we want to house sit

The apartment block we moved to do not allow pets. We miss the interaction with animals and would like to take the opportunity to Housesit to enjoy the company of your pets while continuing to travel.
