Lizelle - I am a 30 year-old born and bred South African. As owner of one of the leading online based Home Decor stores in South Africa www.knus.co, selling high quality locally produced hand crafted home decor and furniture, my working space and hours are flexible.
My hobbies include photography which I currently do part-time, cooking, knitting and reading. I also enjoy the outdoors and a good run or hike. I love exploring new cultures and places and of course good food!
Michael is 31 years old and a builder by trade. He was born in Namibia and has lived in South Africa most of his life and 8 years in London, UK. There he had his own construction and renovations company.
Michael and I also co-own an online based Home Decor store as well as run a web designing company which allows us to make money remotely while traveling.
We have a great love for animals having had a few ourselves, but sadly due to living in an apartment not allowed to have any pets at present. We would love to be able to look after yours :)
Why we want to house sit
We are both free spirits and wish to see and explore as much as possible of this beautiful planet. We feel that we are all free to see and do as much as we can and it is our own choice what we do with our time here.
House sitting is the ideal and affordable way for us to experience different cultures and areas while helping others who need care taken of their beloved animals and homes.
Our experience
We are huge animal lovers and growing up in a farm town we both have had various pets including dogs, cats, hamsters, chickens and birds.
Michael is a builder by trade with his own construction and home renovations company and as you can imagine a great help to have around the house with years of vast experience. We always leave the home that we look after in a better condition than what we found it in and are able to do repairs if needed.
We both enjoy gardening too so will have no problem taking care of you garden and plants.
Our experience of house sitting includes dog and cat sitting in various parts of the UK as well as local based in South Africa and we decided to take the leap and explore the rest of the world whilst looking after your beautiful home and pets as our base for learning new cultures and seeing new countries.
Please feel free to look at our reviews by the owners of our previous housesits to hear how they experienced our housesitting and pet sitting for them :-)

I really can't say enough great things about Lizelle and Michael. They were communicative, responsible and conscientious in taking care of our pets and our house while we were gone for a week. But more than that, they were unbelievably caring and resourceful when our beloved elderly dog fell gravely ill. They truly went above and beyond the call of duty in keeping her comfortable until I returned. I'm eternally grateful for their compassion and kindness. Would recommend them to anyone.

Lizelle and Michael were the perfect pet sitters. They are a kind and thoughtful couple who genuinely love animals. They took great care of my 4 cats and also of my neighbour's old cat who has decided to try and move in here! I had regular updates and photographs and returned to a very clean and tidy house (and a cleaned outbuilding! ) and happy cats. Lizelle and Michael had use of my car and we shared some enjoyable meals on the 'overlap' days. I would welcome them back as sitters anytime and highly recommend them.
