Why we want to house sit
We like to travel and exploring new areas. We like finding out about the culture and area we are in. We love to look after different pets. We think it is a win win for every one.We also like visiting the historical sites each new location offers us we tend to get a education with every new sit
Our experience
We housesit in the same place in Calgary, Ab, this will be our third year. We love it. They have a dog named Bella. We have housesat in VIctoria, BC. We looked after a cute cat named Bella, she was such a sweetie. We spend the winters in Mexico, so on the way down in 2017 we housesat in Santa Fe, New Mexico. We had a great time exploring the city and surrounding area and enjoyed looking after her cat, Kitten.

Maxine and Dale have been our housesitters for the past two years, for 3 months. They are very good with our little dog. We highly recommend them to look after your house, as well, if not better then you would yourself. Maxine and Dale have an eye for detail and follow the instructions you give them. Maxine and Dale are very trustworthy, quiet and considerate not to over step our wishes. We will have them back next year if they agree to come back. Book them early to not miss out on great housesitters.

This great couple left our home in better condition than it was in when we left. [We will certainly be remembering their names for the future.] It was heartening to see pet sitters who cared SO CONSCIENTIOUSLY about our pet and humble home. They even sent us pet photos while we were away! THANK YOU SO MUCH DALE AND MAXINE

I strongly recommend Dale and Maxine. They took good care of the cat, stayed in contact and let the house very neat.

Fabulous couple
Dale and Maxine did a wonderful job of looking after our dog Peemo. Even the neighbors told us how kind and caring they were. Not only did they do a good job with the dog, they kept the house up and kept all my plants alive, inside and out. SO IMPRESSED!!! Lovely people, will have them back in a heartbeat.
Thanks Maxine and Dale
Tidy, organized, good at pet care, reliable, kept in contact, friendly, good in the garden, handy around the house.

We are so grateful for Dale and Maxine! They not only agreed to our sit short notice but they went out of their way to accommodate our dates. They are very nice people and we really enjoyed meeting them. While we were gone they updated us with pictures of our dogs and let us know how much they were enjoying our little furry girls. Our house was super clean and tidy when we got home. We will definitely be inviting them back to sit our dogs again, it was a great experience.

Dale and Maxine were amazing. They were easy to communicate with, very attentive getting instructions and asking appropriate questions. The dogs loved them immediately, as did we. We could have had them stay on when we returned, as we felt like they were friends. They did an awesome job with the horses, everything was done to a T. The best part....they actually seemed to enjoy and get excited about watching and caring for our furries. We felt so comfortable in leaving everything in their care and you should do! Nothing to worry about with these folks!

Dale and Maxine were awesome! We were away 3 weeks without a worry. Our fur babies and home were in great hands. I also loved that they kept in contact by sending emails of pictures and updates... great couple!!!
