Karen Ellis

66, Registered Nurse/retired

67, Self employed/retired farmer

Warren and I have retired after 40 years of farming and 40 years of nursing. We have three grown children and three grandchildren. We have always loved having a dog and cats on the farm. We are very interested in housesitting In Canada. We are very fortunate to live in a beautiful country which we plan to explore from coast to coast. Warren enjoys taking acting classes so we are also looking forward to spending time in both Vancouver and Toronto.

This is the second time that Karen has taken care of my cat Apolon and my house during my absence. As always, everything is impeccable when I return home. Karen regularly gives me news about Apollon with beautiful photos. I leave with peace of mind knowing that my cat is in good hands. Karen is very responsible. Thanks you Karen. See you next time

Karen took such good care of my cat during the week I was away. My cat is a rescue and so it takes her a very long time to get comfortable around strangers but she was very at ease with Karen. Karen also took such good care of my apartment and even washed the sheets and towels so I could fall into bed after a day of flying. Karen is so considerate and a great communicator. I'm so thankful that she came to take care of Mimi and my place.

I really appreciated Karen’s care of my cat. Karen is a thrust worthy person and i could leave home with peace of mind. She regularly sent me news and beautiful photos of my cat. Everything was perfect when I returned home. My cat was also feeling well. I wouldn’t hesitate to propose her an other stay at my place. Thank you Karen.

Karen and Warren were second time sitters for us. We were so happy to welcome them back. They were thoughtful and treated our home and cat extremely well. Great communication. Delightful folks.

Warren and Karen did a fabulous job caring for Bonny and Mowgli and minding the house and property. Mowgli got plenty of outdoor time and Bonny was so lucky to enjoy many off leash romps over the farm fields and fetch in the back yard. Warren/Karen kept in touch with updates and photos. My house was spic and span when I returned and lawn freshly mowed! A very down to earth, genuine couple...Hope they will come back this way again....Have no hesitation in recommending them for future house sits!

We loved our stay and do plan to return. Thanks Sandy
Karen and Warren were wonderful house sitters. Communication was great, before and during their stay. They took very good care of both our house and our cat -- in fact, I think our kitty was sad to see them go! Everything was pristine on our return, both in the garden and in our house. I highly recommend them.

Karen and Warren were absolutely fantastic sitters. They took excellent care of our kitty, our many indoor plants and our home. They kindly shovelled and ice-chipped after a freezing rain/ice storm. Excellent communication prior to and during the visit. Our house was pristine when we returned. Having them as house/pet sitters was a dream. So grateful for them.

Karen and Warren were the perfect sitters! Cats were happy and well cared for! My patio with the little flower garden was left nicely groomed. My apartment was left cleaned. The communication was flawless. I can recommend Karen and Warren to anybody who wants to have piece of mind and worry-free vacation!

No rating We couldn't have asked for a better house-sitter! Karen connected with our dog Hope immediately. She was very flexible, took amazing care of our home and we feel like we've made a new friend! We appreciated getting regular pictures while we were away, so remained connected. Hope displayed no signs of anxiety when we returned home, so we knew all was well. We would highly recommend Karen and will hopefully be able to have her come stay at our home in the future.
