ANIMAL LOVERS WHO HAVE GROWN UP WITH DOGS AND NEW TO TRUSTED HOUSE SITTERS

We are a couple, Sheena (50) & Andrew (48).
What may differentiate us from other potential house and pet sitters is that we are now in a position to be able to commit to acting as house and pet custodians on a permanent basis full time.
We can achieve this because we both work online so we are able to act as house and pet custodians whilst looking after our business interests.
We are originally from the Isle of Man but for the past 2 years we have lived in London and prior to that we spent 3 years living in Perth, Western Australia.
Andrew holds a full, clean, current driving licence.
Both our backgrounds are originally in Finance. Sheena worked in Banking and Fund Administration whilst Andrew looked after the property and investment offshore portfolios of the rich and famous.
Andrew is also a qualified personal trainer and whilst in Australia used to run WA Boot Camps for Women.
We have both grown up where dogs were a key member of the family and during our time in Perth, we both volunteered at the Dogs Refuge Home where we spend quality time with the dogs and took them for walks.
We have raised money for the Dog’s Home through running in the City To Surf Run and through Push Ups For Charity that Andrew organised.
Why we want to house sit
We have grown sick of the 'rat race' and still have a passion for travel and plan to spend time experiencing different places around the world so why not do that whilst also getting to spend quality time with animals and looking after someone else’s house.
It's a WIN WIN.
We are both hard working and practical people who were fed up of working just to pay the bills!
Housesitting allows us a great degree of financial freedom of movement as we both now work online. Andrew operates his own business consultancy and marketing agency and Sheena is a freelancer, meaning we are able to work from anywhere.
House-sitting further allows us the opportunity to visit new places, meet new people and become temporary pet guardians.
Sheena has this natural knack of remembering the names of all the dogs she meets.
As we are unable to have our own pets whilst we scratch our travelling itch, it is a pleasure to spend time with home owners pets, although it's always difficult to bid them farewell when the time comes for us to leave.
Our experience
Whilst we are new to Trusted House Sitters, we have many years of experience of looking after the family pets as well as looking after friends pets when they were away or at work.
As we have had the opportunity to travel over the years we have stayed in other people’s properties and always respect their property as if it was our own.
We are able to amuse ourselves quietly, we are not party people, and would intend for most of our time to be spent at the property including through the day.
We are both animal lovers and your pets would not lack attention from us.
We understand that each House Sit will come with its own unique set of requirements and we will look to provide regular email updates and images of pets for owners peace of mind or are happy to maintain regular contact via a platform such as Skype, Facetime, Google Hangouts or Zoom.
We see our role as being the guardians of your property and your pets and as such we will spoil your pets, maintain your property, deal with any pet/house emergencies which may arise, look after and garden maintenance and where required providing guest services for rental/holiday accommodation.
In summary:
- We offer honesty, reliability and commitment.
- We guarantee respectful care of your property.
- We assure you that your pets will have plenty of attention and loving company whilst you are away.
If you have any questions for us or would like to meet up via Skype/FaceTime please get in touch.
We very much look forward to hearing from you.

How lucky did I feel when I messaged Sheena and Andrew who had previously looked after my dogs, to see if they were available last minute for a week in January and they were! I was absolutely thrilled as I new that my two dogs would be cared for brilliantly. I would almost say they are becoming surrogate dog parents now! Yet again everything was faultless, communication was great as always and we could relax knowing that our dogs were getting two lovely walks a day and lots of cuddles. Thanks again you two, can't wait to have you back here again! (Cleo gives a waggy tail hello and Wilba sends a sloppy lick!) x

We, and our 3 cats, just loved having Sheena has our pet/housesitter. We knew straight away that our pets and home were going to be in very caring hands. It was like old friends coming to stay. An added bonus were daily photos of our gang, even Jack, who is re-knowned for hiding away!

We cannot recommend this Sheena highly enough. You will go away with complete peace-of-mind.- Organised

Wishing I could give ten stars in each category for these two!
The day before we left on holiday our cat got sick and had to stay over at the Vet for two nights. I was quite stressed about leaving him but Andrew and Sheena proved to be just as concerned for Scout as I was which put me at ease. ...Wishing I could give ten stars in each category for these two!
The day before we left on holiday our cat got sick and had to stay over at the Vet for two nights. I was quite stressed about leaving him but Andrew and Sheena proved to be just as concerned for Scout as I was which put me at ease.
They called to check on him a few times and when the Vet gave the go ahead for the pick up they were right on it and kept me informed every step of the way. Scout was not quite himself when he got home but I think even he could tell their concern for him because he cozied up to them right away. They sent loads of pictures and information.
When we got home the house was better than we left it. They had tidied up and Sheena magically got a stain out of our sink that I had been working on for weeks.
They are a very warm, caring couple and if I could have them stay with Scout for all our holidays I absolutely would.
Thank you so much Andrew and Sheena!- Organised
