Peak District, Derbyshire UK
We do a regular sit in the Peak District (Rowsley). Beautiful part of the world.
Yes! True! I was born in Hove (actually!
) and was 5 when we moved, I then grew up in a posh part of Brighton but did plenty of partying downtown! As an adult I had my own house back in Hove for 10 years, most of the time it was rented out so I could travel. Its been 25 years since I actually lived in the UK. Parents long gone, sisters both emigrated away, still a few old friends around.. Brighton has changed a lot and so have I - I like my peace and quiet these days! ![]()
I reside in northern Wisconsin, USA…where one day I have my heat on and the next day the air conditioner! ![]()
Hi. I live in Warwick RI and Asheville NC both in the US.
Ventura, California. I’m lucky as it’s easy to find people to come sit in this coastal town while I petsit in other places.
I’m originally from Northumberland but have lived in Kent, UK for 30 years. It’s lovely seeing where everyone is from and where they travel too. Happy sitting!
Now East Ayrshire in Scotland, via 6 years in Heidelberg in Germany, originally from Bradford in Yorkshire. There seem to be a few Yorkshire folk here.
People from Yorkshire (often referred to affectionately as “Tykes”) are famously proud, straight-talking, and community-minded. Representing the largest historic county in the UK, they are deeply attached to their regional identity, with a culture known for its dry, deadpan humour and world-class hospitality.

Yes. I’m surprised how many
Yes, that sounds right ![]()
Aussie couple retired living in Phuket Thailand.
HO’s here, not sitters. Living in the greater Los Angeles area, transplanted from other places, but the LA area has been home for 20+ years for both of us. Don’t foresee ever leaving California as home, except for occasional (sometimes longer term, but still occasional) travel.
We’re UK/Canada citizens - spent many years in Scotland, England and British Columbia. Scheduled to relocate to Southern Europe in coming months
. Travelled to many countries through full-time housesitting - met many lovely people along the way.
Homeowner here, living in Paris with our sweet senior pup. I am originally from California, my husband is from Sweden. I am grateful for all of the excellent tips on this forum on how to be a better HO!
Newfoundland, Canada but living in Anglesey, north Wales.
I’m from Germany and have been living in Ireland for 14 years, and live with my Irish partner of 16 years. He sometimes joins me on pet sits when he can.
I’m from Ireland, living in Texas for 32 years. I still have most of my family in Ireland and go back at least once a year. I am exploring east coast (US) places to relocate, by taking long house-sits in potential locations.
@Lassie, good luck with exploration. Such efforts have been one component of our housesitting objective, albeit with different geographic target. Happy learning.
