As a couple/duo
We are a responsible, friendly couple (or one of us if preferred) who treat peoples Homes and Pets with care and respect.
We have had successful careers in project and property management and now retired whilst running a modest property portfolio remotely. We pride ourselves on giving folks accommodation they can truly call home and we treat other peoples pets and homes as we would like ours to be treated in return.
We take our responsibilities seriously and, as well as our considerable life experience, have recently completed an Animal Welfare diploma course as well as an advanced Pet First Aid course.
We also have House Sitter Insurance in place and clean Criminal Background checks.
So if you are looking for mature, dependable folks who are respectful and proactive when caring for people's property and pets, then you have found them and can be sure they are in safe hands.
We wish you and yours health and happiness:-)
Best regards, Ian and Ingrid

Community opinion
Ian and Ingrid are outstanding house sitters and lovely people. Great communication from start to finish. They looked after our cat Sam with wonderful care, and kept our apartment in great shape whilst we were away. I would highly recommend them without hesitation.
Zürich, Switzerland - December 2022
Ian and Ingrid looked after our two cats and house for a period of 5 weeks, and we could not have imagined a better experience. Ian and Ingrid graciously answered our emergency “call out” for a home sitter, after our original sitter had to cancel at very late notice. From the initial introductory video call with them, through to welcoming them into our home, and then over the entire 5 week sitting period, they had this amazing ability to put our minds at ease, allowing us to concentrate on our travels in a stress-free manner, confident that our cats and property were in caring and capable hands. Our cats took to Ian and Ingrid immediately, and friendly communication on their wellbeing and adventures (as well as more general admin updates) over the period was frequent but unobtrusive. We arrived back home to two very content and healthy animals, and a clean, neat, and well-stocked home. Ian and Ingrid are a lovely couple and amazing animal and home sitters - friendly, warm, considerate, generous, and with a nothing-is-too-much-trouble attitude. We can highly recommend them.

I think it is safe to say Ian and Ingrid were the best dogsitters we have had so far. They are lovely people, friendly, warm, and funny. Milka took to them straight away. They looked after her very well, kept us frequently updated with texts and pictures, and even made sure to stock the fridge with some essentials for us, as we were coming back on a Sunday. They are thoughtful and kind people and we hope to welcome them back soon.
