I started joining different housesitting websites to help save money towards my home deposit, but The Housesitting Company was the only one to actually provide regular sits. THC always went the extra mile to help me find a housesit and the way they operate is more effective than the other agencies.
We used The Housesitting Company when we moved to Auckland from Christchurch. We had no prior experience being housesitters, but found The Housesitting Company to be helpful and pleasant. Their system for advertising available housesits was prompt and efficient. We met a lot of lovely homeowners through housesitting and thoroughly enjoyed our experiences. We recommend The Housesitting Company to anyone that is interested in becoming housesitters.
Housesitting allowed us to save a sizable deposit for our new home and THC gave us peace of mind that all the admin side of things was done for us. I would recommend housesitting if you are young and trying to get ahead or even as a retired person wishing to live/holiday in other peoples fine homes and care for much loved pets. Thank you to Stephanie, Jason and the team for an enjoyable 18 months of housesitting and helping us to buy our own home.
For me housesitting is like having a holiday. I enjoy meeting people, their pets and living in their fabulous homes. Over the year I have looked after chickens, parakeets, a mouse, dogs, fish and cats and I’ve enjoyed dog walking to get some exercise. I currently flat, so housesitting allows me to get out and have my own space from time to time.
I have been a sitter for The Housesitting Company since 2011. The team are very friendly and care for both owners and sitters and the homeowners I’ve met through THC have been wonderful! THC is there through every part of the process, to ensure a happy sitter, pets and homeowner and are a great support team. I highly recommend THC!
As current sitters of The House Sitting Company, we have found their expertise and professionalism to be excellent. As previous business owners ourselves, we knew we wanted only the very best company to represent us, (and in turn, they too had high expectations). After trialing two other companies, we found THC far exceeded our requirements. That several clients have asked us back is our best reward.
