I recently spoke with Dr Peter Higgins BVSC,MBA who is Media spokesman for Dogs NSW at the 2008 Sydney Retirement and Lifestyle Expo. He full endorsed live-in house sitting pet sitting or as a preferred kennels alternative. He said putting dogs in kennels can lead to behavioural problems.

We are going away for a month over Christmas and need a house sitter to look after our dog (King Charles Cavalier), 2 cats and some goldfish. The dog will love you if you can walk him once a day (half an hour will do), the cats and goldfish pretty much look after themselves but need feeding twice a day. Our house has 4 bedrooms and lots of stairs. So if you feel like spending Christmas in Sydney, please let us

This is presently our 12th sit and our 4th year of sitting - then we are off to Seymour and Yarra Junction in Vic, then Tas then to WA...life is a joy and we just love house sitting, its a great lifestyle and we do it for the travel, new sights and for the fact that we meet some terrific people and great animals along the way and we just love to help people, to make their own travels happy and stress free, knowing their homes and pets and gardens are well looked after in their absence.

Thanks for a terrific site we couldn't do it without you, each sit just gets better and better. We are booked until end 2010....Keep up the good work. House-carers is the best!! cheers Jen & Maurice...... (arcticdreamers)

"Hi Once again we located a house sit in the area we wish to visit. This is a wonderful site. We are having so much luck with this house sit situation. Since we are from Vancouver Island and the house sit is on Vancouver Island we will be visiting them next month to receive a run through and a chance to meet the people with their furry family. Just love this site. Keep up the good work. As ever "
