Why we want to house sit
We are avid travelers and love animals.
We enjoy meeting and helping people we meet plus giving AND giving/getting love to the animals.
House sitting lets us accomplish both of those values. We enjoy learning about the local culture which only living like a local can provide.
Our experience
Both of us were bonded in our jobs. My husband was an Eagle Scout. Our integrity is the highest. We have experience house sitting in Europe, Asia & Oceania and the good ole USA.
We have owned several properties and understand the commitment to make a house a "home". We also understand your pets are family. We have owned several dogs during the 43 years of our marriage.
If anything gets broken we will replace it and let you know. Honesty is the best policy. We have skype for the interview.
We have been house sitting since 2011 and have enjoyed each opportunity.
We will put you in touch with past pet owners (via email) so you can ask your questions and get the answers you need.
On the About Us page of our web site www.spaid.com, you can get to know us better. I have posted pictures of some of the animals we have house sat. On the journal page of the web site, you can read the journals that specifically relate to house sitting by clicking on the tabs that have the *.

Candy and Gary stayed at our home for 17 days in October 2018. When we returned, our home was cleaner than when we had left, and our dog had learned a couple of new tricks. Cannot thanks them enough for taking care of Brienne, Holly, and the chickens. It was great getting to know them and learn about all of their travels too! Highly recommend.

I was very pleased with how they looked after my dog. She was well taken care off. I would definitely have them again and recommend them to anyone

When they arrived at the house, our cats went straight to Candy and seemed to prefer her lap to ours! They checked in with us about household things and were totally accommodating when it was discovered the dishwasher and TV wouldn’t work.
We returned home to happy pets, not acting like they missed us at all! As a bonus, Candy and Gary had organized things in a way that worked even better than we had them (nightlight in the bathroom, kitchen counter more clear of rarely used items), and of course the house was immaculate.
All their reviews already say this, but I would without hesitation recommend them to anyone for house/pet sitting. This is not just a hobby or budget travel arrangement for them, it’s a retirement lifestyle. What an inspirational couple :)- Organised
