House Sitters available (All)
Our House Sitters list for all Australia is below. To view a list of house sitters willing to house sit in your area please use the drop down menu.
When filtering by State, you may see sitters from other states listed as well. That’s because those sitters have nominated they are willing to house sit in more than one state (some have chosen all Australia). They are all candidates for positions in the selected state.
We save you time. Replies from house sitters you contact can sometimes take a while and when they reply you may find your location and timing doesn’t suit their schedule. This means contacting house sitters one at a time can be a drawn out process. When you choose to contact a house sitter with us you will be asked to list your needs and when you do, available house sitters for your location and dates will be contacting you within hours.

Frances - Reliable and trustworthy couple
4Years Couple
We are a friendly and respectful non-smoking couple, who moved to Melbourne from the UK in 2019. We did a few house-sits soon after arriving in the city before settling in Richmond. Not being able to have our own pets makes us miss the joy animals bring, so we've very happily taken up house-sitting again.
We'd be glad to spoil and care for your pets and are happy to follow any guidance you... Read more
