Trusted Pet Lovers!

More information about this house sitter

We are in our mid-late 30's, Julie is a yoga teacher and works full time in travel content and marketing, and Simon is a mechanic, working as a trainer for roadside assist. We are big animal lovers, having grown up with them but unable to have them since renting, so we love to get in some quality time with anyone else’s cats and dogs!

We are relocating from Perth back to our home town of Melbourne in late March, and will be in a transition period of looking for a home, so would love to stay in yours and look after your furry ones! Julie has been petsitting for many years, most often on visits back to Melbourne. We are comfortable with small and large dogs (Julie grew up with Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Simon with Border Collies and Goldens).

Julie will be working remotely in Melbourne, so will be home a lot to spend with your beloved pets, and we’d happily take them on 1-2 walks a day (as needed). We are both very active and love going for walks and to the beach, but also very much homebodies in the evenings. We are very respectful of your homes, keep a clean house and very quiet (literally - we go to bed by 9pm every night!).

We mostly love being able to spend time with animals, as we are not able to have any where we are living at the moment. We also prefer our own space when we travel, and to be able to have a quiet space to work from when working remotely.
