Pets Are People Too

More information about this house sitter

Hello, I’m Alex, a non-smoking, childfree, long time Brisbane local. I started full time house/pet sitting as a mature aged student in 2016 and loved it from day one.

Meeting new people and getting to know, love, and care for all the pets turned out to be my best life. So, after study I made house sitting with pet care my ‘thing’ and never looked back.


Casual work that lets me pick my shifts and locations plus a digital WFH side gig are the secret sauce that makes lots of time for company during the day, evening and every night when I’m on a house sit.

AVAILABILITY AND BOOKINGS
I have availability from 6th January 2025 onwards and preference sits of a month or longer in suburbs approximately 10 km +/- from Brisbane city centre.

If you're planning time away in 2025 and want to forward book a reliable, experienced sitter, I'm always happy to talk about your dates, plans and pets.

WHY CHOOSE ME?
Because 100% no one knows your pets better than you. That’s why I follow their established rules and routines, whether that's inside sleeping under the doona, strictly outdoors or anything in between. Continuity is reassuring when we’re making new friends and building trust, so it’s ideal for them and me!
Being a practical person by nature, mowing, general garden care, watering, tending worm farms, cleaning pool filters etc. are easily integrated to the regular animal care routines of litter change, poo patrol, brushing, worming etc.

I am very much an animal person, having grown up in UK and NZ with horses, assorted dogs, guinea pigs, birds, fish, a cat and a couple of very brave chickens. All animals are equal and perfect people to me!

PEACE OF MIND
It’s a privilege to be welcomed into a home, which means I'm careful, clean, and tidy, while being considerate of your possessions, privacy and neighbours.

Respect and trust are mutual which means removing or covering cameras monitoring your indoor spaces (excluding the garage). Cameras directed at external areas are fine to run/record as normal.

Thanks for taking the time to view my profile and please don't hesitate to make contact if you have any questions or would like to chat about an upcoming trip

Thanks again for reading :)
