Jinky and Ole are fantastic! Jinky came over a week before I was to leave and learned our daily home and pet care routine. She had read the guide ahead of

Jinky and Ole made us feel so at ease being away from our home and animals. 100/10 recommend them for your house sitting needs! Very communicative and left

Jinky (Jane) & Ole looked after Annie Cooper’s pets

Jinky and Ole are very caring animal lovers. They took care of my dog, 2my, for a month at a time, off and on for years when I worked out of town. They walked or skied with her daily and included her in all their activities. They became her second family. When I left to go to work and dropped 2my off at Jinky and Ole’s house, she would get super excited as we drove down their driveway, she loved being with them! As 2my aged, Jinky and Ole assessed her changing needs for exercise and rest and attended to her meds. I had complete trust in JInky and Ole to make any decisions about 2my’s care when I was out of cell range and we could not communicate. Over the years that I have known them they completed construction of their own home and I can attest to their attention to detail and knowledge of home systems. They also have 2 large high tunnel greenhouses and a garden full of fruit trees and veggies. I give them the highest possible recommendation as 2 people who will take excellent care of your pets and home.

Why we want to house sit

We enjoy traveling, and also love the coziness of staying home with animals to care for. We like adventure, the unexpected, and meeting new people. We are curious about other countries and cultures and prefer to immerse ourselves in a
