About Jane & Paul
We are a family of five animal lovers, Jane, Paul, Peter, Andrew and Jenna Smith. We are a caring, calm and conscientious family! Our home is in beautiful rural Shropshire but after our beloved greyhound died last year we decided to go on a family adventure to the USA and we are just about to return to the UK for the summer.

We are a family of five animal lovers, Jane, Paul, Peter, Andrew and Jenna Smith. We are a caring, calm and conscientious family! Our home is in beautiful rural Shropshire but after our beloved greyhound died last year we decided to go on a family adventure to the USA and we are just about to return to the UK for the summer. Before going abroad, Jane home-educated our 3 children, who are now 17, 13 and 9, and Paul worked as an engineer.
Why we want to house sit
We miss having pets! Being abroad this year, we haven't been able to have any, and of course we will have more in the future, but in the meantime, combining a family holiday and looking after animals seems like a wonderful idea for us!
Our experience
We have been renting our home out this year, so we understand how important it is to have your home well cared for when you are not there. Our well-loved pets have included our greyhound, 2 lovely cats, 2 gerbils and a collection of chickens. We have also looked after various neighbours pets - mostly cats, chickens, guinea pigs and fish. Our eldest son has worked as a dog-walker for a neighbour. We are also keen bird watchers and happy to feed wild birds too.

Jane and family sat for us 2 years ago. We were really pleased when they wanted to sit for us again.
Once again they did an excellent sit for us even with the additional animals we now have!

It was a real pleasure having Jane and her family look after our house and our dog Honey. They were a really lovely family. It was great to come back to such a nice, clean and tidy house. They were so thoughtful and caring. Highly recommended

The Smith family looked after our house, garden and numerous pets for 2 weeks in August 2016. We were very happy with all aspects of their care for our home and pets and would definitely both recommend them to others and have them sit for us again.
