I have been a member of Trusted House sitters for the last three years - as a host but not as a pet sitter. However, I regularly visit my son and daughter in law who have a rescue greyhound and have become their regular pet sitter - living

Joanne & Owen looked after Linda’s pets & home

Joanne looked after my home and 2 cats while I was away from home for a month. Joanne is a friend that I've known for a very long time. She has always had cats and has always taken her role as a pet owner very responsibly. All her animals were sterilised and regularly vaccinated. She often looks after our other friends' animals when they are away. I do trust her to put the needs of animals first.

Why we want to house sit

We enjoy travelling and find housesitting allows the opportunity to interact with a variety of animals and develop (hopefully) a trusting relationship with them. I would never be able to live in a home without an pet. Housesitting allows us
