On The Road Again....

68, Retired

72, Retired

We are an active, non smoking, retired couple. We have extensive house sitting experience with a variety of animals and enjoy them all. We have also completed many sits through different house sitting platforms, mainly in the UK and more recently in New Zealand. Our aim is always to treat your pets just like we would our own and keep you up to date on their daily activities. We will also treat your home with respect.

A couple of reviews from other sources:

Bianca in Maidstone
'I had the good fortune to have Ali & Den house sit for me on two occasions and am only upset that they're already booked for my next trip! The house and brood were very well looked after and it was very nice to get the email updates with pictures to see how they're getting on and I could see that Bailey thoroughly enjoyed the long walks that they were taken. Making arrangements and plans for both sittings was very easy. I highly recommend Ali & Den if you're considering them for a housesit.'

Diane in Stowmarket
'Ali and Denis were the best introduction to house sitting that we could have had. Despite the fact that one of our cats has special needs, Ali just took over his care, and left me in no doubt that I was leaving him in very safe hands. The house was exactly as we left it, and we even had a nice meal cooked for us on our return. They are a lovely, very friendly couple, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to other home owners. Thank you both so much.'

Neil in Great Malvern
'Ali and Den came to look after our house, dog and cat for two months from 22/12/16 to 26/2/17. They are a very friendly, pleasant, reliable and trustworthy couple. While we were away they kept in touch very regularly, sending us frequent photos of Monty on his walks, and of Mandy the cat playing with Monty or cuddling up to Ali as she worked on the computer. Being serious walkers and members of a walking club they gave Monty serious exercise! Not just on the Malvern Hills but in the Cotswolds and around Worcestershire. They obviously adore animals and looked after our pets brilliantly, administering medication to Mandy who is arthritic, bathing and grooming Monty, etc. On returning yesterday from our travels we found the house absolutely immaculate and the pets both happy and relaxed. We hit it off really well with them both and feel we have made new friends. We would not hesitate to recommend Ali and Den to any prospective house and pet owners.'

Alison and Denis were ideal house sitters. Friendly, flexible, great communication and conscientious care of our home and pets. The house was perfectly in order, lawn mowed and animals happy. Denis even baked us a cake! We would ask them back without hesitation. Best wishes for your travels Ali and Den!

TONY (St Albans South Island, Apr 2023 - 6 days) From Kiwi House Sitters
Alison & Dennis were the perfect house sitters. Their communication prior to and during the sit was excellent and they took such wonderful care of our house and border collie. They were kind enough to give the house a thorough clean prior to us returning from our week away, which was very considerate. We'd certainly love to have them back to sit for us again and would recommend them to anyone looking for personable, diligent house sitters.
 
SAM (Maori Hill South Island, Apr 2023 - 5 days) From Kiwi House Sitters
Ali & Den house & dog sat for me for a week.?They were super easy to make contact with & arrived a day early to familiarise themselves with my home & dogs routine. They sent updates throughout the week, which was reassuring. The house & car were left in a clean state upon return. My dogs were both well loved & cared for, they even abandoned me for Ali & Den’s bed when I arrived home (traitors πŸ˜‰) I would not hesitate to have them in my home again 😊

Thanks Julie, for choosing us and for the extra hospitality at the end of our sit! Give Ruby and Otis hugs from us! πŸ˜€
Ally and Dennis filled us with confidence that we could go away on holiday knowing that our dogs Muffin and Marley would be well looked after. They even took our cocker swimming as ordered by physiotherapist for an injury sustained at Christmas. They kept the house and garden in good order and communicated with us regularly.I would certainly highly recommend Ally and Dennis to others wanting to holiday knowing all was being cared for at home.
 
IRENE (Noosaville QLD, Mar 2023 - 1 week 3 days)
Ali and Dennis were awesome! They started their stay a day or so before we left, which we always prefer, so we could hand over in a relaxed state and not in a last minute rush, which we find very stressful. Between them they divided the 'responsibilities' of our house sit, such as feeding/nurturing our cat/dogs and fish (and our wild swans!), the pool, the garden etc. They were very easy to get on with and were great at communication (WhatsApp worked great as we travelled O/S for this ...

Thanks for the 'awesome' review.... and we will be back in June!
This was our first time using a house sitter and we thought Ali & Denis were fantastic. They took Archie for daily walks, responded to messages promptly, mowed the lawns before we returned and left the house immaculate. We have already booked them in again for another trip we are taking next month. Thanks guys for making our first time using this service a very positive one.
 
LIZA (Warana QLD, Dec 2022 - 2 weeks 6 days)
Ali & Dennis took great care of our dog while we were away and our house was tidy when we returned. Thank you both!
 
GEORGIA (Kiels Mountain QLD, Dec 2022 - 1 week)
Ali and Denis were great house-sitters and kept in contact both beforehand and while we were away. We came home to find a tidy and clean house and a well-looked after dog. They went out of their way to post us medication that we'd left behind by mistake, which was much appreciated. We would recommend them to anyone looking for housesitters.
 
SARAH (Coorong SA, Apr 2021 - 2 weeks 1 day)
Thank you so much, hopefully we'll meet again one day!
Ali & Dennis exceeded our expectations and were the best house and puppy sitters we ever had the pleasure to meet. Our little dog Ruby was so happy and relaxed when we arrived home that we knew she had been loved and cared for. The house was spotless and despite the heavy rain the lawns and gardens had been trimmed and looked after. Communication from beginning to end was excellent and we just loved getting some pics of Ruby (looking relaxed) while we were away. We felt confident that our ... MORE
 
KAREN AND LYN (Failford NSW, Feb 2021 - 1 week)
Thanks for that. We enjoyed looking after your home and loved Ruby lots.... one of our favourite doggies now!
Alison and Denis were an absolute delight to meet. After meeting them we had no worries about leaving our menagerie in their capable hands. The gardens look wonderful. Getting the grass to grow back in the front and back areas was no easy feat, thank you. The menagerie are all healthy and happy. The house was as tidy and clean as we left it, again, thank you. We would not hesitate to recommend them. We will use them again, if the situation arrises.
 
DAPHNE (Balgal Beach QLD, Oct 2020 - 3 weeks)
Just wonderful pet sitters who really loved the fur babies and travel. Lovely social couple who are interesting and well travelled all over the world. Returned to a clean home, fern fronds collected and happy cats. I certainly relaxed knowing my home and fur babies were in good hands.
 
RENEE (Palm Cove QLD, Sep 2020 - 12 days)
Ali and Dennis looked after our house and our poodle perfectly. Unquestionably dependable, extremely concientious, good company, we would say that they go the extra mile. Highly recommended, and we would very gladly have them back if the opportunity arose.
