TikTok users @dogsitterdiaries1 revealed how they look after people’s pets while they are on holiday - and they get to stay in their client’s luxury homes.

In a clip on their account, they said: “One of the first things people ask us when they find out that we house it full time is ‘does that mean you live out of a suitcase?’

“Yes, we do fit all of our clothes into a couple of suitcases.

“We kind of live out of a car packed with our entire life.

“Yesterday we moved from one month-long sit to another.

“When we book our house sitting jobs, we do our best to make sure they are lined up back to back so that there are no gaps between sits.”

The couple revealed that they don’t get paid to pet and house sit.

However, it has enabled them to stay in fancy Cotswold farm houses and impressive homes without paying a penny of rent.

They added: “We have lots of repeat clients and we adore going back to see our favourite pets.”

Thankfully, both of their jobs allow them to work from wherever they are house sitting.

The couple explained: “We house sit full time, but we also do have full time jobs.

“We work remotely so that we can house sit all over the world.

“Kieran works in recruitment and I work in sport.

“My job is actually the reason that we started house sitting in the first place because I got a job in London and needed to be in London for the weekdays.

“In the beginning we just thought that we would do it Monday to Friday and go home for weekends but we realised that we absolutely love it.”

We have lots of repeat clients and we adore going back to see our favourite pets.
