About Pippa & Briar
We are two professional women with vast and varied backgrounds and a 15 month old boy called Max. My partner Briar is a human and animal osteopath and has worked with horses in Argentina, New Zealand, South Africa and the UK, elephants in Kenya, donkeys in India, and farm animals in Wales including pigs, turkeys, goats, sheep and tortoises!

We are two professional women with vast and varied backgrounds and a 15 month old boy called Max. My partner Briar is a human and animal osteopath and has worked with horses in Argentina, New Zealand, South Africa and the UK, elephants in Kenya, donkeys in India, and farm animals in Wales including pigs, turkeys, goats, sheep and tortoises! I'm a qualified CELTA teacher and have taught adults and children in France, Peru and England. I now have my own business in professional wedding and family photography. We have done two house and pet sitting assignments, one in Barbados and one in Canada. We are both home owners and have rented out our houses regularly on Air Bnb so we appreciate the importance of finding the right people to look after and respect one's home.
Why we want to house sit
We have decided to rent our properties out in England and travel with our 15 month old boy Max for eight months in Portugal, California, New Zealand and Japan. We both love the idea of staying in one place and getting to know an area while hopefully looking after animals in someones home.
Our experience
We are a fun-loving caring small family who love animals and travel. We are both home owners in Brighton, England and have professional careers in osteopathy, teaching and photography.

I have known Briar in both a professional and personal capacity since 2001. Briar came to Barbados to work in our clinic there for a 2-year period as an osteopath and has remained a close part of our family ever since. She is one of the most decent, noble and sincere people that I know and we consider ourselves blessed to share a friendship. We have also recently got to know Pippa and Max and can happily say that they are an inspirational family. Both owning their own beautiful homes, which they maintain to the highest standards at all times with a joy for life and travel and discovery we highly recommend them both individually and together!

I have known Pippa for ten years and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her to house sit. She is very thoughtful, considerate, responsible and respectful and a wonderful mother to little Max (who is an absolute delight!). Pippa lets her own house out and is very aware of the need for respect and care when living in someone else's home and I would trust her implicitly with my own home. She loves cats and dogs - as does Max! - and I absolutely trust that Pippa would be very aware of him with any animal; I would have no concerns whatsoever.

I'm one of the managers at the clinic Briar works at in Brighton and have thus known her for several years. Briar and her partner, Pippa, both have beautiful houses themselves and seem to be extremely responsible, well-organised, clean and tidy in the way the way they manage their own homes. They are also both incredibly personable, relaxed and caring, as well as being dedicated to the promotion of good health, happiness and well being among both people and every kind of animal, large or small! I would highly recommend making use of Pippa and Briar's house-sitting services.
