We are Jeremy and Diana Porteous a married couple of 35 years who have house, pet and B&B sitting experience. If you would like more information and references please check out our work in progress blog: wantingtowander.com. We think sitting for you offers a fantastic combination of things we love, animals and experiencing new places, as well as at the same time providing homeowners, something we as pet owners valued so much, a trusted reliable caretaker for your pet and home. As much as we love travel we are also homebodies and while house sitting for you we would be able to keep to this routine as we look after your home and pet. We tend to stay home in the mornings doing "chores", catching up on emails and the like. The afternoons are a time to enjoy walking/hiking or just exploring new places. Evenings are usually spent at home with perhaps an occasional dinner out. House sitting allows us to keep to this lifestyle while being there for your pet(s) while you are away. Bottom line is house sitting offers us both the best of both worlds. We get time to spend with your animals, being in new places, experiencing new cultures and food at a relaxed pace while meeting new people. All the while providing you piece of mind that your home and furry loved ones are safe and sound. That's what we call a win-win!!!
