House Sitters available (Hume, Victoria)
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 love holidays near the beach and after nearly 40 years of camping now find the need to stay in holiday homes. Being employed as a director of an educational program my holidays are usually bound to school holiday periods. Likewise my husband Warren does shut down work and this too occurs in holiday periods. Hence holidays are often thrust upon us, in free time, with little notice. We love... Read more
