I have known Peta Mackenzie for more than 40 years. Many of the early years were at UVIC functions, where she was incredibly organised, always ready to help, had great suggestions, and completely trustworthy. This carried over to Victoria Operatic Society events, many of which I observed her excel (not as a performer) but one who managed and got things done. When I retired, 11 years ago, we got a dog, and that is when I came across her pet caring ability. Since then I have watched as she has had many pet sits, of which I have only heard great things. Her organisational skills means you need not worry about your home being taken great care of, as well as of course your pet. She is completely trustworthy. You will not be disappointed.

Why we want to house sit

We are both very active and are open to adventures. To have the chance to live in a home rather than a hotel and to have the company of animals seems like the perfect opportunity to experience a different lifestyle.
