Jackie

We are delighted to offer our services as trusted and reliable house sitters. Between us we have a great deal of experience and references are available. Simon is very experienced and amazing at caring for dogs (done with much love and empathy) and Jackie loves cats, although both would be equally loved and cared for as would other pets. Also in our shared experience and skill set are sheep, chickens, rabbits, small cage animals, and a very limited experience of horses.

We are currently based in the UK, however caring for homes/pets in foreign climes would also be welcome as we like to travel. We live in a rural location and are used to the country way of life, log fires and wildlife.

We both love being in nature, as well as the occasional hustle and bustle of towns. We are both able to turn our hand to any essential DIY, or source someone who can, and can often be found out in the garden tidying and keeping maintained. Our interests include dancing (Ceroc), reading (Jackie is also an aspiring writer), Simon is a photographer (he produces some amazing photo's!) and we both adore cooking and baking together - sourcing and experimenting with unheard of before products!

Whilst enjoying our retirement from previous hectic medical and professional lifestyles, we find ourselves free to roam the world with the purpose of looking after property, pets and gardens with loving and open hearts and minds, thus giving us the opportunity to explore parts of the world not otherwise seen. We lean more towards spending time with your pets than visiting the local tourist attractions.

Being retired we are sometimes available at short notice. We always leave owners homes in a clean and tidy state and will treat your home with the love and care as if it were our own.

We will be travelling throughout Europe this summer (mostly France) so would welcome listings from anywhere accessible by car from France. Please do email us with any questions you may have. We are a friendly couple and look forward to meeting you and your pets.

Warm wishes

Jackie and Simon
