Experienced trustworthy couple

More information about this house sitter

Hello!
We are Lew and Lesley, active, young-at-heart retirees in our 70s who are embracing life as proud Australian Grey Nomads. Based in Perth, we are non-smokers, friendly, trustworthy, reliable, and passionate about animals, travel, and meeting new people.

Lew is a retired electrician with a practical mindset and a talent for solving problems, while I am an avid genealogist with a lifelong fascination for family history and local heritage. Together, we make an excellent team—I'm the organiser and Lew is the hands-on expert!

Having travelled extensively throughout Australia and overseas, we are comfortable adapting to different homes, communities, and lifestyles. We understand that every home and every pet is unique, and we take great care to follow your instructions exactly as you wish. Whether it's maintaining routines, administering medications, watering the garden, or simply providing plenty of companionship, your pets' wellbeing will always be our priority.

As experienced homeowners ourselves, we have enormous respect for other people's property and possessions. We understand the importance of security, cleanliness, and maintaining a home to a high standard. Because much of my genealogy research is done from home, your pets can enjoy plenty of company and attention, while your home remains occupied and secure.

We are happy to keep in regular contact with updates, emails, and photos of your beloved pets. Of course, if you prefer to relax and enjoy your time away without regular updates, we're equally happy to quietly take care of everything while you're gone.

In addition to caring for your home and pets, we are pleased to assist with light garden maintenance, watering, mail collection, taking calls, passing on messages, and attending to other practical matters while you're away. Lew can also handle many minor maintenance issues and emergency repairs should the need arise.

Most importantly, we pride ourselves on being honest, dependable people with plenty of common sense and a genuine commitment to giving homeowners complete peace of mind.

We look forward to caring for your pets and home as if they were our own.
