We have both had cats and love pets but because we are moving so much right now as we search for our permanent home we have decided to wait until we buy a place before getting another cat.
This is another reason we love this service as it gives us a chance to be around animals as well as travel.
Although we have not owned dogs Sam has taken care of many of his friends dogs, and we have both house sitted for many dogs using the Trusted housesitters app, which we also use here in Canada but used alot in Europe as well.

Pet care

We have used the trusted housesitters app for over a year now, mostly in Europe and for a couple months here in Canada. We have taken care of both cats and dogs, including with special care such as administering medicine.
