Careful Home Owners

We are looking for occasional short term house sits to provide a budget friendly getaway for either ourselves as a couple, or as a family, whichever is possible for a particular sit. Our family has dogs, cats, birds, horses, chickens, rabbits, goats on our lifestyle block plus much dairy farm experience. We are happy to look after pets and farm animals on life style blocks, and we are equally comfortable in the city as we have lived in both environments. We are very careful to look after our own home, and we would be delighted to look after your home while you are away. We actively use this website to place sitters in our own home, and we have also done a number of house sits and swaps with great success. We have references listed on this website and police clearance certificates. Thank you for your consideration.

Thank you Lori and Scott We were worried about leaving our precious dog in someone else's care, however she is none the worse for it :-) I could hardly even tell we had house sitters in. The house was left in perfect condition. Communication was great also. Lori and Scott are welcome back anytime.

Lori and her family were fabulous house guests and took excellent care of our 11 mo puppy. We received an update about our pup and she had great communication. The house was left very clean and tidy. I would recommend them to any other house sitters! Thanks :)

Lori, Scott & teens were the ultimate house sitters. We have never used a service like this previously, and were somewhat nervous. Their communication was amazing, their care and respect for our home & pets was also above and beyond expectations. We could not recommend Lori & Scott enough to anyone looking for a house sitter. It was very refreshing to know that our home & pets were safe & cared for - coming home to a beautiful clean house (& little treats on the pillows) was also a huge ... MORE

Lori and Scott were our first encounter with nz house sitters and we couldn't have asked for a better first encounter. They looked after our home and fur family as if their own.
 
RONEL (Ngakuru North Island, Jan 2018 - 4 days)
Lori and Scott looked after our home and dog for three days. They did such a lovely job and we came back to a happy dog and a well cared for home. I would recommend them.
