House Sitters available (Southern Highlands & Tablelands, New South Wales)
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.

While we love our city life, and have lived in our apartment since 1999, we also love spending time in rural and regional Australia. This may stem from the fact that we were both brought up in towns in regional Queensland.
Over the last 10 years we have spent an increasing... Read more

We have an insatiable love for travel that seems to be ingrained in our very souls. However, we've come to realize that committing to full-time pet ownership can sometimes limit our freedom and may not always be in the best interest of the animals we cherish. That's why we find immense joy in caring for your pets temporarily.
To us, we liken pet sitting to the joy of having grandchildren.... Read more
