About Jemma & Chris
Hi,
We are daughter and mother, Jemma and Chris. We have lived in France for 12 months, have spent some time living in the UK and are now in Australia. We are both registered teachers, non-smokers, experienced long term renters and landlords. Completely trustworthy and reliable, we love to laugh, travel, meet new people and enjoy life.

Why we want to house sit
While living in France we were away from our beautiful 10 year old cat we have had since a kitten. We missed her incredibly so to be able to look after someone else's pet is an absolute joy for us.
We believe that housesitting is a privilege and that you, the owner, should be able to go away knowing that your pet(s) and house are being cared for the same as if you were still at home. We would treat your pet(s) and house as if they were our own; with respect, love and care. We would love the opportunity to look after your pet(s) and your home.
Our experience
We are both registered teachers and also keen gardeners who would enjoy maintaining a garden. As long term renters and landlords, we have first hand understanding of what is essential when looking after a home and also your pet(s). I (Jemma) have spent time volunteering at local cat shelters in charge of looking after the new kittens/cats, plus general day to day care of kittens/cats in a shelter.
We have both been pet owners since we were young and our current cat (thoroughly spoiled and much loved) is with our sister/daughter in Australia. We have house sat in France and the UK, looking after both cats and a dog.

What can I say but wow! Jemma house sat for me for a week recently and she was just amazing. I came home to find my cat sitting on the front mat waiting for me but I'm fairly positive that she gave me a huge look of disappointment upon realising it was me and not Jemma coming home :). Jemma took great care of the house, my plants and my cat Tilly. The house was left spotless and upon my return I found clean sheets on the bed, the sheets and towels she'd used on the line and the added lovely touch of some chocolate and flowers. I will definitely contact her for any future house sitting I need and highly recommend her as a house sitter and pet carer. Thank you so much for your help Jemma.

Jemma and her Mum Chris, stayed with us for a week in mid-July to pet sit for our two cats. We could tell from our Skype chat with them that they were really caring and that they were very excited about living with cats again, having missed their cat whilst on their travels. We got on with them immediately - they were so friendly and kind. They were the perfect house sitters too. They kept in touch about their plans before hand, and updated us on how the cats were during their stay. They kept the house immaculate. I knew the house and cats were in safe hands and so was able to thoroughly enjoy the holiday. Jemma and Chris are fantastic - you will have no regrets if you select them as your pet sitters.

Jemma and her mother are very nice people. They stayed in my house for a few months and it was a great pleasure to meet them. They are very respectful people. No problem to live with.
They always left the kitchen and the house clean and tidy.
Always happy, always smiling, beautiful ladies !

My dog Tina was also very happy with them. They took her for walks many times.
I recommend them without hesitation !!!- Organised
