Experienced respectful kiwi Career
Kia Ora (Hello)!
My name is Alby, and I’ve been house sitting since 2022. I have moved to England from New Zealand in November 2024, and have continued my house sit journey here in the North West.
I’m a cheerful and reliable person who works with children, which has taught me how to balance responsibilities with care and compassion. Communication is key for me, and I take pride in building quick, trusting relationships.
With a passion for caring for homes and pets, I ensure your space remains safe and tidy while you’re away. I’m responsible, trustworthy, and attentive to detail, so you can relax knowing everything is in good hands. As a non-smoker who follows a healthy vegetarian diet, I genuinely enjoy the outdoors and nature. On top of that, I am also a bit of a cleaning freak. I will make sure your home is tidy and clean throughout.
I am excited about my next chapter in England and look forward to providing you with peace of mind during your time away!
Best regards,
Alby

This was the second time sitting for us and another great experience. Good communications while we were overseas and not phased by our cats strange habits. Came home to happy cats and a lovely clean house. Would highly recommend.

This was the second time that Jason and Alby have house sat for us and we were only too happy to have them back! They did a fantastic job looking after our two little dogs and left the house spotless. Communication with them was amazing and we were able to go away knowing everything would be in good hands.

I would highly recommend Jason and Albert who took excellent care of our house and little dog for whole month when we were overseas. The linen was clean, house spotless and I think our dog barely noticed that we were gone.

Can’t say enough positive things about Jason and Albie. The house was immaculate on our return. They took great care of Barney, our dog, and dealt with his weirdness well! We really appreciated the comms and little updates on the trip. Highly recommended!

Alby and Jason were awesome. Left my place very tidy and my dog very happy. I would definitely get them to house sit again if they are available and highly recommend them. They communicated regularly giving me updates on my dog. Thanks Alby & Jason for the 5-star house-sitting you did for me.

We were so lucky to have Alby and Jason look after our pets and house. The perfect house sitters - great care and communication and I'm very sure we came back to a tidier house than how we left it. Many thanks for a fabulous job and hopefully we'll have you back

Alby and Jason were great house sitters. Communications before and during the sit were great including the photos of them bonding with our 3 cats, An added bonus was how relaxed they were when the cats brought in mouse gifts.
We have already booked them in for our next trip

Alby and Jason did a fantastic job house sitting and looking after our dog Benito. The communication was always good and we appreciated the photos and updates while we were away. We were able to enjoy our 3 weeks away knowing that Benito and our house were been well cared for. We came back to a clean house and a happy dog! :) We highly recommend Jason and Alby and would happily have them housesit again. Thanks guys! 😊

Alby and Jason were both lovely and took great care of our two dogs and house. Their communication was excellent and we appreciated the regular photo and video updates of the dogs while we were gone! Came home to a tidy house - dishes were clean, the sheets were washed, the rubbish was taken out and the mail was brought in. Would definitely have them stay again!

Albert and Jason did a wonderful house sit for us. They got on really well with our pets, and had no problem administering meds to our old cat. They are neat and tidy, and I would highy recommend them for any house sit.

Alby and Jason are the absolute best. We had to travel to the US with our toddler for the first time in a COVID world, and it was already a high stress trip. We got Alby and Jason to stay and look after our 2 cats and house while we were away for 6 weeks. We could not have asked for better sitters. We arrived home to a spotless home, freshly washed sheets, and 2 happy cats. They sent us regular updates (as asked) to give us peace of mind that all was well. The cat photos and videos put a smile ... MOREAlby and Jason are the absolute best.

When we got home, it felt like we never left as everything was where we left it, the house was tidy, and no chores or tasks needed doing. Can't rate them enough!

Alby and Jason looked after my home and cat for two weeks while I was away with work and I don't think either have been so well looked after. I came home to a super chilled and happy cat and a clean, tidy home. They also sent me regular updates and videos of the cat happy and purring so I could relax knowing she was ok. Great comms, always a quick reply and they were able to add an extra day on when I realised my flights home landed a day after I had planned. Really appreciated having Alby and ...

Alby and Jason would be my go to housesitters if they were available.
Our home and cats were extremely well looked after.
Can not recommend them highly enough.

Albie and Jason were fantastic house and pet sitters. They looked after the property but most especially they diligently looked after our 10 month old pooch Basil and two cats. They even took Basil to work as well as ensured he was enriched and had a full programme of care, training and activities each day. Many thanks to you both!

Alby and Jason are wonderful sitters! They were communicative throughout the housesit and provided frequent updates, as well as being very accommodating when my trip had some minor hiccups. I came home to a spotless house and a happy cat. Would love to have them back anytime!

Alby and Jason were dream housesitters! It was an easy breeze to organise and coordinate, and our pets and home were cared for beautifully. Their stay coincided with some building work happening on the property and they were entirely unfazed. An absolute godsend! We returned home to an immaculate house and happy pets. 10/10

We would highly recommend and we'd use them again if we get the chance.

These guys are fantastic and left the house in an immaculate condition. The cats were happy and well fed. My son was delighted that even his little garden was well looked after.
I cannot recommend these two enough.

Alby and Jason took great care of our elderly cat and our home, leaving it in spotless condition with a very happy cat waiting when I returned! They were quick to communicate and provided updates on how things were with the cat. Very easy going and I would happily ask them to house sit again.

Alby and Jason were great housesitters. Their communication beforehand and during their stay was excellent. They updated us regularly with photos of our cat and any issues with the house. They were clean and tidy and we genuinely felt our house and pet were in safe hands. We would definitely use them again.

Alby and Jason did a fantastic job looking after my home and fur family while I was away. I can tell my fur fam had a wonderful time with them as their lovely friends looking after them. They also left the house with everything in such perfect order, in some ways even cleaner than I normally keep it. I would be delighted to have them house sit again
