Great house sitters

Jeff and Pat are a friendly, trustworthy couple who took good care of the dogs and house and were great with communication before and during! I’d recommend them for house sits!

Perfect guests and dog sitter!

Jeff and Pat were the perfect people to have come and stay at quite short notice to look after our dog, Zeph. It was our first experience of MindMyHouse and Jeff & Pat were great at guiding us through it all. The house was spotless when we returned (thank you for the flowers!) and more importantly Zeph was happy and well. Highly recommend these lovely sitters.

Oz the Labrador

Jeff did a grand job of looking after my Oz and home while I was gone. He was extremely trustworthy and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a great housesitter!
