House sitter testimonials
Thank you once again for giving us the opportunity to live such a privileged lifestyle, we have truly been bitten by house sitting!
Dear Susan, thank you for asking us to send a Testimonial for mindmyhouse and we write in full admiration on the ease of use and lay out. We are currently sitting in Hertford in a beautiful Manor House looking after a young Labrador. This is our 2nd house sit from mindmyhouse, the first being equally as lovely a Grade II listed Thatched Cottage, so we are extremely grateful that your site has allowed us to live such an idyllic lifestyle. I had been looking for a lifestyle change and came across your site whilst looking for an opportunity to work from home. This far outweighs any thoughts of home working and my hubby is now looking to sell his business so we can continue to house sit and hopefully be lucky enough to spread our wings further afield. We are hoping our next port of call for 2009 will be Australia. We have met some wonderful people and truly amazed at their hospitality, allowing us to live in such wonderful surroundings.
We only starting house sitting early part of 2008 and already secured repeat house sits. We have even been brave enough to attempt our own website to link from mindmyhouse. This way home owners can get a little more information about us. Our site is being tweaked daily and is a new experience for us, why not visit and offer some feedback, it would be gratefully received. We have also been approached by home owners direct, one from Hong Kong and one from Portugal, unfortunately we were already booked but have asked they keep our details for future reference. Finally, we have just secured another house sit in a Grade II listed Toll House, again from mindmyhouse, so the subscription is worth every penny and I highly recommend your site. Thank you once again for giving us the opportunity to live such a privileged lifestyle, we have truly been bitten by house sitting. Regards Debbie and Terry Home Sitters www.homenpetsitters.co.uk

Thank you for our very positive introduction to housesitting!
I found your website one day in March 2008. The following day I submitted a request for house sitters and within 12 hours I had twelve enquiries. Within another day we had confirmed our sitters. They were super people, very friendly and professional. They took good care of our three dogs and two cats, not to mention the house and garden! Thank you for our very positive introduction to housesitting.
