Friendly, reliable couple who love animals!

We are a newly married couple who want to make the most of life and explore New Zealand!
We are going to be in New Zealand for just under two years, and would love to be able to see all the little nooks and crannies this beautiful country has to offer, while helping others keep their pets and homes happy! Having both grown up rurally we were surrounded by dogs, chickens and horses, so we're really looking forward to dropping our London life and heading into the fresh air. We'd eventually love to have our own pets, but we needed to scratch the travelling itch first... I (Immy) have had extensive experience working with polo horses in Australia, so I can't say much will phase us and we love a bit of hard work if required! My husband Rich has just finished being a primary school teacher (very good patience) and now works remotely writing about the dairy industry - a slight change but allows for more freedom! And less screaming children...

Immy & Richard were wonderful sitters. Great communication, house was nice & tidy on our arrival home, Bear was spoiled & was sulking after they left! Definitely recommend. Thanks guys.

Immy and Richard were 5 star sitters. Their communication was prompt, they arrived at the time they said they would, washed all linen, stayed late to feed and walk Coco as we had an evening arrival flight, house was super tidy with a lovely note and bunch of flowers. The animals were all well cared for as was the garden. Couldn't ask for better!

Immie and Rich looked after our 2 dogs, cat and home for a few nights. In short, they were friendly and professional and happy to work in with our schedule. The dogs were soon following them around for attention just like they do to us, even the usually reserved cat was comfortable with them around. This was our first time using a house sitting service and we were delighted with the peace of mind we enjoyed knowing we didn’t have to worry about the animals while we were away. The house was ...

Richard and Imogen did a fantastic job looking after our place and animals. The house was clean, plants looked after and Roxy dog and the mini horses were also well cared for. We really appreciate having them look after everything so well, and the wine and bikkies for our arrival home. Can totally recommend as house sitters.

Imogen and Rich were fantastic house and dog sitters for us for 3 weeks. They were very communicative, gave updates regularly and didn't hesitate to ask questions or check with anything they needed. Emmitt, our dog, was happy and well looked after, as well as the chickens and sheep. Imogen and Rich left the house in great condition. I wouldn't hesitate to have them stay again and would highly recommend them to anyone considering them as house sitters.
