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.

Now in our 70s (but ridiculously young at heart), we're definitely not gadabouts but tend to live life as we would normally do at home taking in some theatre, live music or... Read more

We think that pet sitting is an excellent opportunity to combine our freelance careers with traveling and taking care of animals. We both love animals, and pet sitting allows us to be in contact with them while we are away from home. Also, pet sitting makes it possible to live in a place like a local and really get to know the culture and traditions of their people. It is also a great... Read more
