Karen and Russ are a delightful couple and we very much appreciated their time in looking after our pet cat and of course our home whilst we were away. They are reliable organised and tidy. We came home to a house just as we had left it a month prior. We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this lovely couple, Karen and Russ for any housesit.

Karen & Russ were fantastic house sitters and most importantly, our 2 terriers absolutely adored them! Their experience showed from beginning to end with their attention to detail and great communication where we received regular photo and text updates on how well the pups were doing. We had a wonderful holiday knowing our home and pets were in truly great hands!! Can't recommend them highly enough and will not hesitate to invite them back. 5 stars Karen & Russ!!!

This was a House Sit done for my parents: To Whom It May Concern We had the pleasure of Karen and Russ Brown looking after our 2 fur kids while we took a 5 week break. Karen and Russ are obviously dog lovers because they fitted in with our 2 straight away. One of our dogs has a medical issue, which Karen and Russ handled with ease. We would gladly have Karen and Russ back again as our house was left spotless and our dogs given the loving care that they are used to. We have no hesitation in recommending Karen and Russ Brown as happy house and dog sitters. R & P Fuller

Karen and Russ, From the first point of contact to the last day Karen and Russ were fantastic. I felt like we knew them before they even started the house sit. Karen and Russ came to our home firstly to meet our fur children which they fell in love with instantly and we knew then that these too wonderful people were the right people for the job. Throughout our holiday Karen kept in contact sending pictures and information about our the pups. Taking the pups to day care, to the park, on walks and even swimming at the local river. When arriving home there was milk, fresh bread and eggs waiting for us, the dogs had been fed, the house was extremely clean, all the plants were alive and the dogs were super sad to see Karen and Russ leave. I could not recommend Karen and Russ highly enough, and will always be happy for them to return to our home to look after our fur kids once again.

Karen and Russ looked after our pets and house while we were overseas for 6 weeks. They were extremely reliable and kept in touch. The house and animals, especially our 2 dogs, were well looked after. The garden and lawn was maintained also. We have no hesitation in recommending Karen and Russ if you are looking for a reliable, trustworthy and dog loving couple.
