Testimonials

Here you will find a selection of testimonials we have received from house sits we have had the pleasure of undertaking.

We are not the sort of people who like asking for testimonials, so this is not a complete record of every house sit we have done. Likewise, not everyone we sit for provides, or even thinks to provide, a testimonial after the sit.

A number of our house sits have also come through referrals rather than through the formal house-sitting sites we use, initially TrustedHousesitters and more recently Kiwi House Sitters. Those privately arranged sits are much less likely to result in a written testimonial, but they remain an important part of our house-sitting experience.

Caroline and David are clearly very experienced dog sitters. We found them to be very friendly and highly organised in taking on the Care of our two dogs. The dogs clearly loved them and were obviously well looked after. . A big thanks for looking after Toby and Ada so well

Steve – Parua Bay, New Zealand

We would highly recommend Carolyn and David. We got home to a happy dog and cat. The house was left very clean and tidy. Communication was excellent and we enjoyed daily updates regarding Brody and Lulu. Thank you Carolyn and David.

Fiona – Mount Maunganui, New Zealand

Carolyn and David were awesome house/pet sitters. We liked them immediately and could tell they were both animal lovers and experienced in caring for them Our precious Samoyed Blitzen liked them straight away too and we felt relaxed leaving him in their care. They managed his insulin injections and his little quirks and sent us updates and photos. Came back to a happy and relaxed dog and clean tidy house! We highly recommend Carolyn and David

Mandy and Donal – Omaha, New Zealand

Carolyn and her husband were great sitters. Our dog Buddy was obviously well cared for and loved in our absence. He was obviously quite attached to Carolyn which was reassuring of how they had connected with him in our absence. Our home was so clean and tidy on our return. We highly recommend Carolyn and David as both pet and house sitters.

Paul and Lynette – Albany, New Zealand

I am very happy our 1st experience with trusted house sitters went so well. Carolyn and David were wonderful pet and house sitters. I was very happy to come home to see the house as I’d left it and even the bedding had been washed and made up.

Joyce – Cambridge, New Zealand

Carolyn and David were very helpful. Due to bad weather, some building work was not quite finished, so not how I wanted thehouse sit to start. Just a bit messy. However, they were very adaptable and kind about it. Best of all, the cats were happy and well looked after. I would definitely ask them to look after my house and pets again, and have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone else.

Deborah – Whangaparaoa, New Zealand

Carolyn and David were just great. Bonnie and Clyde loved having them as did Wendy and I. It was very easy to communicate with them and we would thoroughly recommend them to anyone as sitters.
