Trusted HouseSitters 25% Discount

Trusted HouseSitters have provided us with a 25% discount for our readers.



This is a great opportunity for you to get in on this incredible system, 25% off of anything is a great bargain these days and this allows you to travel very inexpensively as accommodation is often the most expensive part of any trip.

We love this system as it allows us to travel almost anywhere in the world, we then stay at someone else's home for free while they are away on their own adventure. We look after their house and pets and receive free accommodation in return.

The system offers contracts for those who prefer a more formal arrangement or just online communications as we have been using and they provide a free 24/7 vet line should it be needed while you are sitting someone's pet.

More information about How It Works can be found HERE

We would very much like to thank Trusted HouseSitters for offering this very generous discount to our readers.


We have another sit coming up very shortly, right here on our little island.

*Disclosure: Should you use our discount code we will receive a small credit towards our own membership fees.

1st official house sit



We have just been offered and accepted a house sit on Vancouver Island.

We had had a different house sit lined up previously but in the end it was cancelled. Today we went to town to have a cup of coffee and while I waited for Brad to get our order I checked the TrustedHouseSitters app. There was a new sit listed, once Brad returned with the coffees I read it to him and we decided to apply.

We were not even finished our coffees when we got a message that they would like us to agree to the sit, which we did. The sit is from Jan 25 (this Saturday) to Feb 8 (2 weeks). After messaging back and forth we then spoke on the telephone and they have asked us to come over on Friday as they leave Saturday..

They are very close to the beach where we can walk the dogs (they have 1 Westie Terrier) every day.

Excitement is just around the corner and given that it basically hasn't stopped raining since a week before Christmas, we are excited to get out from under the tic tic tic... and explore a new area of British Columbia for a couple of weeks while accommodating someone else's holiday. Win Win.
