Our experience

All our hosts highly recommend us in their reviews and we've already done repeat sits. Not having children we are used to calm, organisation, tidiness and ensuring that everything is looked after and never broken. And of course we love

Desmond and Caroline were the perfect pet sitters during their stay at our home in London for 2 weeks over the Christmas break. They took extremely good care

Desmond and Caroline are wonderful people and took amazing care of both our house and the dog. I honestly think he was bummed when we came home. We got fun

On two separate occasions Desmond and Caroline came to my rescue and pet sat for me and my wife while we holidayed in France with our kids. We live in Ireland and aswell as having cats and 1 dog, we have 12 chickens and 2 large white pigs. I found Desmond to be extremely respectful, honest, enthusiastic and had a great work ethic and wasn't afraid to roll his sleeves up and clean out the chicken coop when needed doing. I'd wholeheartedly recommend them to look after your furry friends.

Why we want to house sit

When we came upon this site, it struck us that it would allow us to combine two of what we love most; travelling and animals. We already have travelled extensively and over the last few years with the rise of airbnb we’ve been able to
