Rob undertook an 18 day house sit for us in 2024. Our initial communication with Rob was very positive and his previous references were very reassuring. Rob asked for our housesitter guide well before the sit was due to commence and thoroughly acquainted himself with the details in it and followed up on any uncertainties well before his arrival. We were also in regular contact with him in the months prior to commencement of the sit. Rob arrived in sufficient time to accompany me on a walk around our local area, including off-leash areas, to familiarise him with the area and the dogs. We had an evening dinner and were able to finalise all the other matters and left feeling very confident that the house and dogs were in good hands. During the sit he provided regular updates on our pets and any matters that required attention or that we needed to be made aware of. In addition to his feedback we received the occasional feedback from other dog walking acquaintances of ours which were very reassuring. Rob took advantage of the lovely area we live in and was able to occupy his time most successfully and feel welcome. On our return, the house was in a very clean and tidy condition. The dogs were obviously very comfortable with having been left with him and were still in the same routines that had been established before our departure. Because of our late return time Rob kindly offered to pick us up from the railway station, a gesture that was greatly appreciated. The dogs were in a very healthy state and he had obviously bonded with them both. We were delighted with his service and would gladly use him again if the opportunity presented itself. We have absolutely no reservations in recommending Rob to any other person requiring a housesitter.

The sit for us was a great experience. Rhianna was very self-sufficient and communicated just enough. The house was left very clean and our cat was well cared for. She kept up with our bird feeders as well. She was understanding when my sister and her dog had to come stay at the house for a few days. I highly recommend Rhianna!

Kaye and Peter were perfect housesitters, they looked after everything wonderfully. I came home to happy animals, healthy plants and clean and tidy home. Even washed the bedding, towels etc and left a lovely bouquet of flowers. Also some provisions in fridge and freezer so I wouldn’t go hungry. 
Thank you both so much, sorry you didn’t get better weather.......

Kate was a great pet/house sitter.  She kept great care of our cat and our house, and we'd definitely recommend her.
