Caitlin & Justin

24, Animal Welfare and Conservation

24, Process Engineer

Kia Ora!

My name is Caitlin and my partner is called Justin. We have recently arrived in New Zealand on a 3-year working holiday visa from Scotland. Before our big move I was working at Edinburgh Zoo and my partner was working as a Process Engineer. We discovered petsitting on our travels around the country and we've loved making new human and animal friends so much that we've decided to do it full time!

We're both very active and love the outdoors! We're considerate, tidy and capable so your home and pets are in safe hands with us.

Justin and Caitlin have house sat and looked after our beautiful dog Ari for five weeks while we were in overseas. They took such amazing care of Ari and took him on such wonderful adventures ❤️ Ari has formed a strong bond with both Justin and Caitlin and we will stay in touch as we think they are wonderful. They sent us beautiful photos of Ari while we were away and stayed in touch the whole time. The house was lovely and clean and tidy and Justin left me flowers and baked a beautiful ... MORE

Justin was an amazing sitter and to our surprise, our skittish Gypsy bonded really quickly with him, and we were so happy to receive photos of her enjoying his company. We was really great with communication, and when we had an incident and our trip back was delayed, he was very kind to extend his stay for us and the best part was coming home to a very happy Cat, clean house, fresh flowers and yummy baking :) Highly recommend Justin and Caitlin!

Justin took great care of our home and cats. He sent regular updates and was super easy to communicate with. We came home to a clean home, happy cats and even some fresh flowers and baking. We would highly recommend Justin 😃

Genuine, respectful and lovely couple, Caitlin and Justin's situation changed but they were so nice we made it work. They were great with our 2x small dogs and 1x 4 month old puppy. Very polite and great communicators. Would have them back in a heartbeat. Fully recommend as house/pet sitters. Thank you.

Justin & Caitlin were absolutely wonderful. They looked after my home & my dog when I was away for a work trip. Harvey (dog) clearly loved them both. I appreciated the regular updates, and my house was very well taken care off. I would highly recommend them both!

JOY (Mt Pleasant South Island, Apr 2024 - 2 weeks 3 nights)
I was grateful to have Caitlin and Justin look after my house and pets while I was away. They took very good care of my animals and I could tell loved them as their own. They also did a wonderful job of my garden and kept the house clean, doing extra paid jobs as pre-arranged. I would highly recommend them as trustworthy and diligent house sitters

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
