Caring and Responsible Couple

More information about this house sitter

About Us:

We are Alex and Brylee, a couple recently returned from spending a year and a half in Canada visiting family. Currently, we're living on a 40-acre off-grid property in regional Victoria, where we care for a variety of animals, including two dogs, two cats, 15 chickens, 10 ducks, and two horses. We tend to a large vegetable garden, a floral garden, and numerous houseplants, while also managing daily tasks like collecting eggs, feeding animals, and maintaining the off-grid setup. We’re both outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy nature walks and bird watching, and we’re excited to take this opportunity to explore more of Australia through house sitting.

About Brylee:
