Newbies Adventure

We used the Paws & Passport Guide to write a profile for our family of four. Despite having zero pet sitting experience, we knew to highlight other things that pet owners value, securing six months of free accommodation while travelling in the far north of New Zealand.

Confidence to Start

The support and resources made pet sitting a breeze. Without it, I don’t think we would have had the confidence to start, let alone put ourselves out there to secure our first sit. We’re hooked. Thank you for laying things out in a way that made the whole process really easy.

Greater Selection

The guide is a game changer. My revamped profile is attracting more homeowners, allowing me to be more selective about the sits I take. The guide is comprehensive, and I highly recommend it whether you’re new or experienced. It’s worth the time it takes to read it.
