On a house-sit right now
Michelle and John
64, Business Owner
66, Business Owner
Hello, we are a Semi retired , non smoking, professional couple who own a work from home business.
One of the businesses John owned and operated was a successful cleaning and maintenance business. He is very capable of taking care of your maintenance issues. Also gardening and pool care is something we can both do. We have owned and rented multi million dollar properties including oceanfront, and know what it takes to care for them. We have had cats and dogs ourselves and know how important it is to have peace of mind about your home and precious animals while you're away.
Michelle has also owned and operated her own business, and on the home front is a bit of a fuss pot so you will come home to a impeccably clean tidy home with fresh supplies in the kitchen ready to go.
As we are both successful business owners, who now mentor others in their businesses, we are happy to discuss looking after your business while you are away should that be of interest to you.
References and testimonials available on request. Web access to all information can be provided.
We look forward to hearing from you. Warm regards Michelle and John.

Michelle and John were excellent. They took great care of our geriatric cat (19 years old) who I feared would fret but who seemed to adopt them quickly. We came home to a very happy, content and healthy cat and an immaculate house. We flew back a day late due to the problems in the Middle East closing airspace and Michelle proactively worked with my daughter to create a solution.

In undertaking a close-to-5 month trip away we needed to have confidence in our house sitters. Michelle and John fitted the bill and throughout the period remained friendly and responsive to enquiries. On our return we found our home neat and tidy and vegetables ready for consumption in the garden! We would be happy to recommend them and wish them well for their future sits.

Was really pleased these 2 were our house sitters and have nothing but praise.
I ended up having to return to my home earlier than planned and whilst it would have unphased some these two easily slotted their plans to fit.
I wish them well for their future sits.
My thanksto to them both. .

We were super lucky to get Michelle and John at the last minute as the confirmed sitter had cancelled. Michelle was super easy to communicate with and accommodated any extra needs - eg - we had to extend our sit due to a bereavement and she made it stress free, we ran out of special dog food etc and she went and purchased more etc. Thanks so much for looking after our dog, chickens and home :-) Emma

Michelle & John were able to help me out at short notice. They came a day early and got to know my 2 dogs a bit and learn the ropes before I left. They looked after the house and garden and my 2 spoilt dogs very well and I came home to a happy pair. You are welcome back anytime either for a visit or a sit. Very responsible couple and lovely to get on with.

This is our 1 st experience of having house sitters whilst away for a long time. What an absolute joy to have found Michelle and John. They have been a pleasure to correspond with from the start and instantly made us feel confident and comfortable. The dogs were clearly well cared for and very relaxed when we returned home looking healthy and happy. House same as left, loved and well looked after, despite winter and the awful rain !!

Lovely couple

Michelle and John were great sitters. I returned home to a spotlessly tidy house and a very happy old cat. In fact Rosa kept going to the door and looking out and I'm sure she was looking for her new friends to come back. I highly recommend Michelle and John and would be more than happy to have them sit again.

We came back to a tidy house and happy pets. Maddie was her normal happy self and Nellie (who is prone to pining and becoming stressed) was content. Michelle and John were great with communication and easy to deal with. Very happy and will book them again. Janine

Michelle and John looked after our house and our cat Kitty for three months and were excellent. I recommend them.
Everything went smoothly, they kept the house and garden clean and tidy, Kitty was happy, and communication was great.
We had to come back for a couple of days in the middle of the housesit and they even cooked us dinner when we got home.

It was an absolute pleasure having Michelle and John house sit whilst we were away. They were friendly, thoughtful and trustworthy. Communication was excellent and straightforward. We went away with complete peace of mind, knowing that our home and our dog Dexter were going to be taken care of brilliantly. We'd recommend Michelle and John in a heartbeat. Thank you both!

Michelle and John took wonderful care of our house and cat and made it so easy for us to go away. They sorted a few things out for us while we were away as well and this was really appreciated. I would highly recommend them as house sitters and would love to have them stay again.

Michelle and John were excellent house sitters. They communicated with me regularly and sent me photos of pets. They looked after the pets very well and they were all very contented. Would recommend them as house sitters.
