Our cat Calvin is always very happy when animal lovers Vanessa and Ariel come to stay. Their communication with regular messages is always welcome.

I have known Vanessa and Ariel for several years as friends and work colleagues. As operators of a vegan food business they have catered for many events at our vineyard. They are very reliable, friendly and highly trustworthy. Vanessa and Ariel are passionate about all animals and the vegan lifestyle they have adopted demonstrate their love and respect for animals. On many occasions I have witnessed their interactions with our dog, Maeve and also the pets of others. It is obvious that pets respond warmly to their gentle nature and engaging manner. I am certain that this couple will give your pets much love and attention. They will take perfect care of your home making sure all aspects and duties are performed to a high standard. I am very happy to be contacted if you have any further enquiries

Why we want to house sit

We work a long summer in our food business when we rarely have a day off. In the winter we like to take a few months break to recharge our batteries and also explore new cuisines for inspiration in our food business. We like to travel for
