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.

Hi,
I've been a house sitter for many years, in Australia and New Zealand. I enjoy animals and am both a cat and dog person :) I have a calm and quiet nature, and pets become relaxed around me fairly quickly.
I am very quiet living, fit and active, and can walk dogs of any size - I prefer a house with no more than 2 dogs and 1 extra pet to give them the time and attention they need.

A brother and sister, who are vets. A love of pets has always been a part of my life and my siblings. Sure to have come from our upbringing. A good house sitter needs to have more than a love of animals, though. You need to be very comfortable with me, while you are away. I am a caring, responsible person, with empathy for you, the homeowner. (I am more than grateful, if invited to house sit... Read more
