Nick and Jess recently took care of our house and pets for 10 days while we were away. We came back to an immaculate house and 4 happy pets, just as we left it! They communicated effectively when anything came up, and took care of the house as if it was their own. We travel a lot and have had various house sitters over the years, nothing has matched the level of service we had this time. Nick and Jess exceeded all expectations and we can highly recommend them as trustworthy, reliable and effective resources for this role.

Why I want to house sit

I like to have the housesit option for when I travel - a way to have a home away from home, and try out "local" life in amazing places. It also helps with saving a bit of cash, and having some furry friends to keep me company. I promise
