Living in JiaHao's Home for a Week - caring for plants, frogs, dogs, and cats
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 жов 2024
- Chris and I house-sat for Tyler and JiaHao as they traveled to Japan/Taiwan. We took care of their frogs, cat, dog, and plants for a week. It was a ton of fun being able to live in their little home on a hill 🏡.

Thank you for house sitting 🥰 you two were so brave for feeding Sweetpea & Yechan 🐸
OMG IT'S TYLER HI TYLER
Omg muva Tyler ❤️
What a win-win situation. Super, gorgeous, cozy home. Loved the video
Wow! What a view.
Me gustan mucho tus vídeos! Pero no entiendo inglés !😩😢.....puedes poner la opción de subtítulos en español??, 🙏🤗
It's hilarious that JiaHao left you with his home full of rare and collectible plants with zero watering instructions; just fully trusting you with his leafy children. That's true friendship
I love how you are scared to touch a cricket, but you will willingly move caterpillars into your home to feed on one of your plants in the open like they own the place 🤣
while benji house-sat for jiahao, the caterpillars were house-sitting for benji 😌
I love the respect and appreciation between the four humans 🖤
Sending many pats to the pets!
As a person who's used to being apart of the pet community which is filled with controversy and misinformation to be honest, it's refreshing to discover such a calm community lol. Thank you for introducing me to the beautiful world of house plants benji :)
listen...... chris has some awewsome, cool t-shirts
I will not lie, I was incredibly inspired by that terrarium to the extent where I immediately made a moss landscape terrarium after seeing Benji’s video, like I made this terrarium so immediately and impulsively that I think it may actually be at the same stage of growth as his.
One time as a kid I slept over at a friends house that had feeding crickets. Her cat knocked over the container in the middle of the night. Ahhhh. You guys are brave lol!!❤
Chris always looks at you with so much adoration it’s beautiful 💗
"No wine for babies." My HEART. 💙 It sounded like such an intimidating housesitting opportunity, but you two were so great. Boosted my confidence! Love you guys. 💙🤟
I feel like living in JiaHao's house would be so cool! It's so pretty, and all his plants would be so fun to take care of!
THE UPDATE WE ALL WANTED
Idk why but the cat litter box scene made me laugh so much, love you guys😂💖☮️🪴
So inspiring seeing all the animals and creatures living in and amongst the plants in both your homes. Beautiful planty homes!
I absolutely adore their home. I'd never leave if I lived there. :)
I love the caterpillars 😭 so cute
More Chris please.
Daaamn Benji, you left him with just propagations? Lol 😂 💖
You need to clean litter box a few x a day, then it's not gross, lol 😉 So sweet of you guys to help out your friends💚🌱🤗 When my son was a little guy, he had frogs, and salamanders. Totally know about live feeding insects 🦎🐸🐜
That watering jug is ingenious
You should make a tips/tricks video on how you get all of your awesome vintage finds
He got perfect big window for his plants. Love his plant setting
Cool❤
Your the best❤
Cool
You guys are so cute. Relationship goals 💕
Fascinating video...thank you!
6:28 In Romania we tend to believe that the opposite of dreams will come true. So for example, if you dream all of your plants died, they are going to be fine in real life. :D
Theo: friend?
Salem: what is this creature
I feel soooo in peace looking this video 🥰
That’s a fun house sitting,🌱,and every one was happy🐶🐱🐸🐛
💚🌱🌵☘️💚
Benji, Love your friends place & plants. I'd have left the ants in his outdoor spider plant. Ants are not harmful to potted plants. In fact, they can be beneficial because they help aerate the soil and spread nutrients around. Ants prey on many pests that could damage your plants, such as mealybugs. Love his frog enclosure.I used to raise Chameleons. Miss it. Nice to get away for a bit I'm sure. The pups had such a good visit.☺️💚🌿🌱🍃🌵🪴🍀
ahw that ginger is cute 😂
i literally LOVE episodes with chris!! youre so cute and adorable together, i canttttt 🥹💞
You are good at decorating indoor plants,I love very much
Such a fun & relaxing slice-of-life video to watch! Thank you for sharing Benji! 🌱🌸
A beautiful home congratulations to your friends . And thanks for a very amusing look at the frogs. Plants and decor . I’m not a minimalist thank god.
holy. u just cut that much of his dark lord LOL
This is so enjoyable to watch !
Frogs are friends
Such a cool experience
I love the multitude of things you did in the video. I always learn from your videos.
I wish I had someone with your knowledge to care for my plants and aquarium when my bf and I are out of town. Luckily half the year I can put everything outside where the weather is basically tropical so I can travel without stressing. Maybe there should be an app to hire knowledgeable plant people to care for peoples plants when they’re gone lol
Your book collection looks lovely! (from the brief glimpse I saw). I'm a huge Brandon Sanderson and Robert Jordan fan!
I just love that bed frame
Amazing jungle house! Greetings from Taiwan~ Plz come visit in Taiwan someday~💚
you’ve encouraged me to take care of my plants like the plant care queen I am. Thanks babes
wow I love the apartment with the view and the plant❤
Wait a minute. I’m only on the 50 second mark of this video and I’m already super entertained 😅 love it . Benjie, you are the best.
Okay, now to the video I continue 😅
I let out an excitement scream when i saw you posted af new video, thank you!
That is so amazing you are breeding butterlies in your home! Never seen that before are those endangered variety? The Monarch kind and also Blue morpho could really use help as they are endangered species. I am so impressed by you guys!
Great video! Beautiful house with all the pretty plants 🌿🪴🌱 🏡
Jiahao's plant collection is literally goals like every now and then I come back to the houseplant tour video just to focus on the different plants I didn't care about before
With that view both during the day and night it's like a mini vacation for you boys too🥰🥰
i love jiahao's home it's a big inspiration for me and i'm happy to see it again on your channel
This was so lovely
I didn’t watch it yet but love to have one more of your videos. 🥰
Love your videos. As a novice plant lover, your videos inspire me. I also like your apartment and book collection. I'm assuming you love to read scifi/fantasy.
If it was me the frogs would still be hungry 😢 bugs scare the crap out of me! Would have needed reinforcement 😅 loved the video though.. as usual ❤❤
HAPPY NEW YEAR 🥂
this is such a sweet and cute content😄🤍🤍
i literally fell on the floor at the bedframe reveal. My dream bedframe omg
that bedframe is sooo beautiful ugh
O my goodness guys. I just love love love the whole vibe of the house. Plants. Tanks. Creativity. All the little details. Guys truly inspirational. 🤗. May I join your crew.
I love this type of video, it's so relaxing and thank you because your videos help me improve my English :)
Worth the wait 💚🌱
This was an awesome and cute video! Love your channel…plants & pets! New subbie from Tampa Florida 🌴
Love to see how they have layered their plants! Mine are in huge pots, but too spread out but also not going to rot the walls from too much moisture constantly trapped near them or the expensive real wood floors. Looks like you needed a few days/nights there for training before they left.
I saw your Instagram stories about this and was excited to see the video!
Nice place, I would love to take care of this house cramped with animals and plants, the view outside is beautiful and there are mirrors everywhere reflecting the plants and even the dog Theo in the cabinet (1:03) !. The anthuriums and philodendrons are beautiful ! this anthurium luxurians is gorgeous, it is on the top of my wishlist, the only thing that stops me is that this is not an easy plant and I don't want to have a cabinet in my room, only open shelves ... if someone read this post and could tell me if it is possible to keep this plant out of a cabinet ??? thanks
i really loved this vlog style video benji 🥰
i'm also plant and pet sitting this week! nice haha and nice video! C:
so comfortable ❤️🪴
Quick tip - for the crickets - since you're there for a week? I made it up, it's called the "CBC" method. Jk, I don't have a name for it. But it's essentially "container, bait, collect" but then "seal, refrigerate, feed." In that order. Whenever possible, put the crickets in the fridge just for 5 minutes, or until you see that they're asleep. To collect crickets for feeding, I get a small plastic container or bottle (must have cap/lid!), place a piece of fruit or veg in it, then place the open container in with the crickets...They'll quickly investigate the smell of the food, and when there are enough crickets in the jar or whatever, take it out, seal it, & place in the fridge. As soon as they're asleep, take them out; don't let them die. They just take a little nap, and they will wake up again - so time is ticking! It normally takes 5-10 minutes, and it just makes moving them around soooo much simpler.
And then you have two choices; you can place them in the cage and let them wake up on their own. Then, as the crickets start wiggling their legs and waking up, the frogs will notice. It also makes it easier for the animal to catch them when they're not hopping all over the place.…
Second option is if you're going to hand-feed them with tongs. Then it doesn't matter if they're dead or alive. It just makes grabbing them a hell of a lot easier.…but not all reptiles or amphibians respond to being hand-fed. Most do, especially when they have healthy appetites; but some have that primal hunting instinct. Some will do both. It's enriching for them to hunt as well. But def whatever you do, container, bait, collect, seal, refrigerate, feed!
benji, I love your videos!!
This is not related to the plants at all, this is about the book Skyward- ITS SO FREAKING GOOD. I'm on book 3 and love the series, an amazing read!!!
I'm almost done with book 2, looking forward to book 3!!
Benji watching your videos I might start collecting house plants too😮😊
Wow, this house is a literal jungle.
Beautiful plants 🌿🪴
Omg I have the same marina shirt. She was amazing I can't believe that was 3 months ago already for me
OMG Sanderson's books are really great, i want to read Skyward too!
Beautiful 🤩 💚
There apartment is soo perfect and relaxing omg if i go visit i have to tell them can i take a nap and the balcony lol same as urbapt Benji
IVE WAITING FOR 2 WEEKS finally yayyayayay
Great job pet sitting 🐸 🐕 😺
I love this so much!! It seemed really personal and I would love more of these. I feel like I really got to know more of your personality through this video.
...
on another note, I know this may sound weird, but.... here me out.
I had a dream that I was in Los Angeles and I saw you in your house. You were editing a video on your computer, and for some reason your dad was scolding and yelling at you. Then the next thing I know I'm in your house. The thing is your house is different and it has really tall ceilings and your walls are painted pink and orange. In the dream I have a fake flashback to when you said in a video that didn't happen, "I love it when people recognize me in public!" So I walk into your house and say "I recognize you!" You are crying, (from when your dad scolded you) and say "would you like a house tour?" I say yes and you show me around. Except, when you show me Chris and your room, you show me a room you have never shown the camera that is decaying and goes into a white void. Then I wake up.
Ummmmm please don't think Im a creep lol. I think it was because I recently binged like 4 of your videos or smthn. haha.
Hi benji I have a quick question, can I make a terrarium without moss? I'm currently in Peru and there's no such humid plants here
lol yea that plant parent anxiety is real. I dont like going out on weekends cuz I wonder if my plants are getting enough light or if I have to up the humidity or not. I left once and it was a super dry day and I came back to yellow anthuriums
Aaaahhh I don't know why I m.not getting the notifications. Good thing I checked. I think this spring I m not doing too much plant purchasing, things ate getting expensive. So I m going to focus on organization in the plants.
15:57 >> New year’s party with a bunch of people you don’t know
The third hobby got me
After this experience, do you two have any desire to get either a 🐈⬛ or a 🐸?
We’d love a cat but we’re both really allergic. We took allergy meds all week lol. So maybe a cat in the future, but probably not. I’m pretty sure we won’t be getting a frog tho
10:17 is Chris French? I heard him say "à moi".
Taiwanese here! Welcome 家豪😁
Wow so beautiful 👍🏻💚🐛🦋🦎🐸🌿🌴🪴
Finally an update!
just driving around the neighborhood, finding a huge san pedro :D
