The Tidy Animal Lover

More information about this house sitter

Hi,

“Thanks for your message! I’m currently booked and may not be able to reply to all enquiries

We’re David and Lisa. David is a retired tradesman who ran his own painting, decorating, and property maintenance business, while I’m a retired PE teacher. We’re proud parents of three wonderful adult children and grandparents to the cutest little one. With 26 years of experience in house and pet sitting, we bring a wealth of knowledge and reliability to ensure your home and pets are well cared for.

As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve had the joy of growing up with a variety of pets—dogs (including Labradors, a Greyhound, and a Cocker Spaniel), as well as cats, birds, fish, guinea pigs, rabbits, and even an ant farm! David, originally from New Zealand, has hands-on experience from working on a dairy farm. While I have limited experience with horses, I did enjoy leading trail rides during high school.

We currently live on the beautiful Central Coast of NSW, in a home David built. Until recently, we shared it with our three cats—now just one, whom we adore. We enjoy a quiet lifestyle filled with gardening, reading, cooking, and being outdoors. House sitting allows us to combine our love of travel with caring for animals, discovering new cafés, going for walks, and connecting with people along the way.

As non-smokers who rarely drink and have long outgrown the party scene, we value trust, cleanliness, and respect. I’m also actively involved in a few charities. We treat every home as if it were our own and always leave it spotless.

Warm regards,
David and Lisa :) Read more...
