Ren

More information about this house sitter

Hi there.

We are seasoned house and pet sitters. We have been looking afer people's homes and pets for a long time—since 2013. We have great reviews and are highly sort after.

We are a mature, reliable, and trustworthy couple who take pride in being genuinely caring, considerate, and respectful. We’re animal lovers, keen gardeners, house-proud, non-smokers, and non-drinkers.

We’ve previously completed house sits in Thailand, Italy, Adelaide, Sydney, Brisbane, and the Sunshine Coast.

We love meeting new people, exploring different places, and most of all — bonding with pets of all shapes and sizes. We bring a calm, nurturing energy that animals respond to well, and we truly enjoy their companionship.

Over the years, we’ve loved and cared for dogs, cats, birds, fish, turtles, hamsters, tadpoles, and frogs. We understand that pets are family, and their well-being comes first during a house sit. We take this responsibility seriously and always ensure they feel safe, loved, and comforted in your absence.

We treat every home we stay in as if it were our own. We’re clean, tidy, and respectful of your space, and we understand the importance of keeping both house and garden in excellent condition. (No parties here — we’re quiet, introverted types who love peaceful surroundings.)

We’re happy to stay in regular contact while you're away — through phone, email, or text — and we’re glad to send updates and photos of your pets so you can relax knowing they’re happy and well cared for.

If you have any questions, we’d be happy to chat before the house sit.

We look forward to connecting and hopefully supporting you during your time away.

Kind Regards,
Ren and David

REVIEWS from previous house sitting tasks:

KIM, BUDERIM Q'LD (June/July '25)
Every so often you have an experience that sets the benchmark—and for me, that was Ren and David. As a first-time user of housesitters, I couldn’t have asked for more. They cared for my two beautiful Ragdoll cats and my home for six weeks with such love and attention that I returned to find my cats calm, content, and clearly very happy.

My house was spotless, and to my surprise, Ren had even prepared dinner and lunch for the following day, along with essentials and thoughtful little treats to welcome me home. As I walked through the house, I kept discovering personal touches that showed the genuine care they had put into everything.

If you are lucky enough to find Ren and David available—don’t hesitate. They’ve set the bar incredibly high, and I’m so grateful for the most reassuring and wonderful experience.

Thank you Ren for taking care of my home and my cat!
Ren was so kind and really went the extra mile to ensure everything was neat and tidy and was so sweet with Dotty my cat, even though the cat can be high maintenance!
Thanks Ren - appreciate you staying at my place.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Ren house sit for us while we were away in the UK and Europe for 2 months. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our home was in such capable hands.
She looked after everything with such attention to detail—from the house and pool to our potted plants—and we returned to find everything in immaculate condition. In fact, the house looked even better than when we left!
Ren is reliable, respectful, and genuinely thoughtful. Her care, tidiness, and calm presence meant we could truly relax and enjoy our time away without a single worry. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy house sitter, and we would welcome her back anytime.

DIANE AND EDGAR WINTER - WOOMBYE
We are senior retirees who like to travel- and we have always felt safer having a housesitter in our home, rather than relying on neighbours to "keep an eye on the place".

For that reason, we are always looking for reliable and professional housesitters and we really struck the jackpot when we found Ren!!!!

Most recently, in early August, Ren looked after our home (and an adopted feral cat!) beautifully, I could not find a single thing that gave me any reason to be concerned.

The plants were all watered, the cat fed, mail carefully placed in my husband's office, and messages left on the voice mail landline, dutifully stored.

When we returned the home was immaculate - I must warn you, gentle reader, Ren is prone to cleaning and tidying up, which was not in her job description!!!

Fresh flowers arranged, everything tidy and clean, it was a delight to come home to.

Ren is honest, reliable, and totally professional. She treated our home as if it were her own, and I felt so relieved not to have to check up with her while away, I knew she would do a great job and would be able to use her own initiative if she thought there was something she needed to check with me.

Please do feel free to ring me on my mobile above, or landline - 5442 3302 - if you would like any further information.

I think you would be making a wise choice if you chose Ren to look after your home, and of course any animals.

Ren & her family house sat for us for 4 weeks. We came back to happy cats, a flourishing garden, and an absolutely spotless house (as well as a fabulous spaghetti bolognaise as we only got in at 9 pm). I'd definitely recommend Ren as your next house sitter!

Ren was a fabulous house sitter. She communicated regularly about how things were going & sent photos of Billy etc. She was very kind, considerate & left the house in an immaculate state! Would not hesitate in highly recommending Ren for any future house sits.
