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.

Single mature male, tidy and respectful. I work in IT, 99% work away from office. I own my home in Melbourne and like to travel on working holiday. A house I mind needs to have stable internet, doesn't have to be super fast, just always available. A home office ideal but I can easy set up on dining table protected with towel/blanket. I have owned fish/dogs before, but currently don't have any. Read more
