He’s Retired, she’s getting closer

More information about this house sitter

We are non smokers & keep a clean and tidy house.

We have done some house sits in the past, but stepped away from it for a few years and now we’re back.

He likes to potter in the garden and is a great handyman. He was owner/builder for our house, performing many of the legally allowable jobs himself. He also grew up on a farm, so has handled farm animals.

She currently works from home as a finance administrator for a large Australian and New Zealand wide company. Thinking about retiring at the end of 2026. Will be working 3 days a week remotely whilst we travel. She grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits and Guinea pigs as pets and had pet dogs and cats until about 10 years ago when her beautiful cat Smokey passed away.

We are travelling our beautiful country in 2025/26 doing some housesitting along the way. We have completed three housesits so far, with another three booked in this year. Currently looking at options in 2026.

We have had no pets for a few years now due to our love of travelling, but we love animals. Our house is opposite a native park and we are visited every day by the resident magpie family and other native birds, plus we have a couple of blue tongue lizards that live in our native garden.

We are both very reliable and trustworthy people and have been in the workforce for our entire adult lives. We have our own vehicle, but no caravan, so would need accommodation provided for any housesits.

Looking forward to our next adventure and taking care of your home and pets so you can head off on your holiday relaxed knowing they will be very well looked after. Read more...
