House Sitters available (Australian Capital Territory)
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.

We do have a little, quiet, lovable 12yr old Long hair Jack Russel (Mr Pickles) who can go to Pet Motel if home owners don’t want another pet or who have a pet who prefers not to share his home. We love being by the ocean but... Read more

Hi, I’m a home owner of old and can easily manage maintenance, and love gardening.
My ulterior motive for house sitting in close proximity to Theodore, is of course, grandchildren (2 beautiful ones). Their parents both have doctorates and are at ANU. Living nearby allows us to catch-up more often than we normally do, as I have a house in New Zealand.
I love cats and the opportunity... Read more

Hi,
We sold our home in October 2018 to be free to explore until our apartment was built, and moved into it in September 2020.. We spent much of our time caravanning, but in Adelaide we managed to have quite a few house-sits experiences. We met some wonderful dogs of all sizes, and a few sweet geriatric cats. Two of the photos in our profile show Jeff with a couple of "our" house-sitting... Read more
