Why we want to house sit
We enjoy travelling and meeting new people. Over recent years our preferred holiday experience has been to hire a villa, shop in the local community, and cater for ourselves. As we enter full retirement we are keen to travel more and help others by providing a valuable service.
Our experience
We have loved the company of our numerous pet cats, and one dog, over the past 30 years. We now love looking after our daughters' two black Labradors and Terrier. We maintain our letting properties so have extensive knowledge and experience of plumbing, electrics, boilers, and all manner of exciting things. You can rest assured when leaving your beloved pets and property in our care. We look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you Les and Caroline for looking after our house and Bella whilst we were away for 3 days. It was lovely to meet you both for an hour or so before we left and we liked you enormously. It was a shame that we were delayed and you had left before our return (our suggestion) as it would have been nice to have had some feed back but Bella seemed very content which is the most important thing!! Still trying to work out how you managed to drive out, close the gate and then post the keys etc. through the letter box? Thank you again. Maddy

Leslie and Caroline looked after our 2 dogs and a cat well, walking the dogs and giving them all care and attention. Their 3 grandsons, age 3-8 visited for 2 nights, which wasn’t planned when we agreed their sit originally. I’m sure our dogs will have enjoyed the extra attention.

They seemed to enjoy the swimming pool and environs, although clothes/swimwear were deemed to be an unnecessary accessory, surprising our gardener!- Organised

Les and Caroline house sat for us for 2.5 weeks whilst we were away - it was the first house sitting experience for us and they were amazing! We left them with our two dogs and lots of fish - when we returned it was clear that they had all had a great week! The house was lovely and clean and tidy, as well as a big bunch of flowers on the table waiting for us made the return even better! I would definitely recommend Les and Caroline as house sitters and hope they can come next time we go away!! They also communicated with us while we were away which was nice and reassuring for us.

Response from Leslie & Caroline
Thanks for a lovely review: Caroline and I are so glad your first house-sitting experience was so positive.
We thoroughly enjoyed the house-sit: loved Smudge and Bob - the were so well behaved, the house, the views, the weather, Bradford-on-Avon, the recommended walks. All amazing. Would love to do it all again.
Best wishes.
