About Rose & Joe
We are a happy loving couple who enjoy caring for animals of all kinds and looking after a property. We are currently living in Malvern PA and aren't allowed pets in our condo so are ready and most willing to bring some lovely animals into our lives through pet sitting!
We are a happy loving couple who enjoy caring for animals of all kinds and looking after a property. We are currently living in Malvern PA and aren't allowed pets in our condo so are ready and most willing to bring some lovely animals into our lives through pet sitting!
Why we want to house sit
We want to experience life in other places; love to walk with animals and cuddle them, and have time for creative outlets such as writing and making music in new places. We also aspire to spread Reiki wherever we go, to animals and/or people. Our philosophy on house sits is to leave things better than we found them and that includes loving the animals to the fullest.
Our experience
For the past three years we have done house and pet sits and loved it. We'd like to continue to do so as it has become a passion of ours, meeting new people and especially coming to love their animals. We have been trusted to take care of other's homes and pets over the years, including dogs, cats, horses, chickens and more. Both of us have horse experience as well as dog, cats, and farm animals. I have many years of experience with horses. I helped manage a boarding stable, taught summer camps and horseback riding for special needs people, and worked in many other types of barns, caring for animals when the owners were away, taking care of horses at shows, etc.. I am adept at basic veterinary care and also practice Reiki for animals, as does my husband Joe. Joe is very handy, as he spent 27 years as a maintenance man and roofer for a University in PA. If something needs fixed, he will not leave it undone. We love animals, growing things, and nature. We endeavor to leave your home better than we found it.

Rose and Joe sat for our 'fur family' in May as we were traveling abroad and know that our 2 cats do best when someone is in their home. We enjoyed a lovely dinner and conversation with Rose and Joe after they arrived and they were eager to learn what they might do to make our cats most comfortable during our absence. They communicated well with us and we are quite sure that our cats enjoyed their company and Reiki treatments. We would certainly recommend Rose and Joe for future sits. It is clear that they have a deep fondness for animals.

Rose and Joe are perfect housesitters/animal carers. Delightful, warm, friendly and clearly loved by our yellow labrador Jura. Everything went very smoothly, the house was perfect when we returned and Jura looked in such good condition. She even had reiki treatment! Rose and Joe fitted in very well and quickly made friends with our neighbours and our village community. We hope they will come this way again so we can spend some time with them. Really interesting, genuine people.

We are so so thankful for Rose and Joe house sitting for us for the two weeks we were in America. They are such lovely and caring people, and even though we wernt here with them, somehow we already miss having them around! They organised getting to our nearest train station and we knew we had picked the right house sitters as soon as we collected them! Whilst we we were away they sent us regular updates and pictures of the dogs. We have two terriers that can be a handful but they were great with them, walking every day and playing with them in the garden! When we came home everything was super clean and made it a pleasure to come back. If we could have them house sit for us again, we certainly would! Thankyou!
