About Rory
I'm a sensible trustworthy guy, who loves spending time getting to know a variety of animals. I spend a lot of time walking in the woods taking photos, a dog is always a welcome companion I find.

Why I want to house sit
For my work it's nice to be able to travel a bit both for inspiration and new material.
Since I had to have my best friend of 12 years put to sleep , I haven't been able to bring myself to buy another dog. Doing this enables me doggie-time without the heartbreak that inevitably eventually comes with pet ownership.
I love cats too especially those that like a cuddle. Also small animals.
It's great to make furry friends in different places.
My experience
Over the last decade I seem to have become the 'go to guy' when my friends and family need their pets looked after by someone they trust. I always find the experience fulfilling, so have decided to try and do more.

It was a pleasure to meet Rory and have him look after Nala. He planned his travel well in advance, communicated well and left the house very tidy.

During our holiday Rory sent pictures of our dogs enjoying walks and they clearly didn't seem to miss us at all. On our return you could hardly tell Rory had been in the house. The dogs were happy and had been well cared for.
I would recommend Rory to any potential TH and would ask him to return should we need this service again.- Organised

We were delighted with Rory as our house sitter and would thoroughly recommend him.
Our cat loved him, and he kindly sent us pictures of her enjoying the sunshine .
Our house was clean and tidy and he had even cut the grass for us.
We will certainly be asking him back next year if he is available.We were delighted with Rory as our house sitter and would thoroughly recommend him.
