Susie
Yarra, Australia
You share - We care
Susie and Gary are a great sitting team! We left them to care for our home and pets for 6 weeks while we went to South America. It was the longest sit we had ever had so we were happy that we felt so comfortable leaving our pets with them. They arrived the day before our departure so that we could acquaint them with our pets, home and property. Our pets include a very senior dog so it was important for us to know that she would be in really good hands. We couldn't have asked for any better care for her and for all of them. Susie and Gary were very much in tune with our old girl and kept us in the loop as to how she was doing. I really have to stress that we were nervous to be leaving her for so long at her advanced age but once we met Susie and Gary, we felt completely comfortable that all would be well and it was! On our return, they met us at the airport with our car and we had a quick lunch and update as they were flying home later that same day. We arrived home and were met by happy and healthy pets and an immaculate house. I know they had to be up very early in the morning to accomplish this due to the time of our flight arrival so we truly appreciated this. We would recommend Susie and Gary in a heartbeat. As happy as our pets were to see us return, I think they are also missing them. They were their people for 6 weeks! These two are real pros at sitting and provide top notch care giving you a worry free vacation. Thank you Susie and Gary!
Dereta
Yarra, Australia
Reliable, experienced and capable couple available to take care of your pets.
This is the second time we’ve had Dereta and Hugh as housesitters. They are a delightful, caring couple and they are very professional and conscientious. Again they did a wonderful job housesitting for us and taking beautiful care of our two elderly dogs . Our very needy poodle cross even bonded particularly well with Dereta. Communication was great with photos of them having a wonderful time. It was very reassuring knowing our dogs and home were in such good care while we were away. Thank you Dereta and Hugh for another excellent job!

Gervaise clearly knows collies and immediately took to Rosie. She was very respectful and left our house in perfect order. We would be very happy to have Gervaise back and no doubt Rosie would give her a great welcome. Thanks again Gervaise!
Sharon
Yarra, Australia
Reliable, caring and respectful
Sharon was a delight to have in my home. She was very reliable and friendly. My home was beautiful and clean and my fur babies were very relaxed and happy. I would have Sharon back to sit any time.
Gail
Yarra, Australia
Our names are Edward and Gail Egan and we are members of Trusted House Sitters.
Gail & Ed were a lovely couple who travel around Australia in their caravan in which they live full time. Upon return we found the house very clean and Orlagh was very happy.
David
Yarra, Australia
David & Claire
David and Claire were super organised and we had a Zoom call with them to talk about the sit before we both agreed that we were a good match. This was quite a few months before the house sit. We thoroughly recommend this couple as sitters as they were meticulous about arrangements and cleaning. We would gladly have them return to look after our cat. David and Claire instruct pilates classes and we had no problem with them doing some online classes from our place as we have a separate high speed guest internet. we wish them well for their future house sits.
Alana
Yarra, Australia
We will love and spoil your Fur Babies as much as you do!
I don't even know where to start. Alana and Jason were simply amazing during a house sit that, well, could have gone better (on my part!). This was my first time choosing sitters that had to travel from overseas, and I was a bit reluctant at first, but the fact that they had previous experience with greyhounds, plus a very reassuring video call made me decide that they were worth it. And boy was I right! They were great at communicating beforehand and letting me know when they had arrived in NZ and what they were up to on their trip while they made their way towards Wellington. Met them in person the morning I was leaving and I left feeling pretty confident that the girls were in good hands. But then a week into my trip I had a sudden change of plans and had to return home a week early. They were super understanding and flexible and I was happy for them to stay. But then the day after returning I tested positive for covid so that threw another spanner in the works. I offered to isolate in my room so they could stay, and in exchange they took care of the girls and even cooked for me! They honestly were incredibly helpful and super nice to be around. Very quiet, respectful and took great care of the girls, plus they cleaned after themselves and even weeded the garden! Absolute legends in a not so straightforward sit. I would ask them to sit again in a heartbeat!

Reviews from Pet Owners
Marlynn
Angie and Joe were fabulous pet/house sitters and overall people! Angie sent daily updates with photos. Really appreciate the extra effort they put into watering the grass and garden. The house was exactly the same as when I left (including sheets/towel washed, beds made, frig cleaned, dishes put away and trash taken out...). Pretty sure Mia was looking for them the next day as she ran to the guest bedroom. Already scheduled a second sit! If you're lucky enough to land them as pet sitter then you're lucky.
Barbara
Lisa and her friend Sara were amazing pet and house sitters! We can't say enough great things about them - our pets were so calm when we returned from our trip and so happy... Lisa and Sara kept in touch with us regularly and sent us beautiful photos of the pets as well. We returned to a spotless home, fresh flowers and a note with polaroids of Soy, Calvin and Chickie! We absolutely loved hosting Lisa and Sara and highly recommend them, they are some of the best sitters we have ever had and they're welcome back anytime!!
Allison
Once again, having AnnaMarie take care of our pups was absolutely the right choice!! Her frequent updates, care of our house and fur babies was stellar! Although the dogs were thrilled to see us when we returned, as we chatted with Annemarie, we could see them continuing to go to her for affection and cuddles. It was so sweet to watch our one-year-old lick her ear and Annamarie just giggled and happily tolerated it. What a great sport😎. We would highly recommend her to anyone and would also suggest if you happen to see a less than perfect review for her ( there is only 1)I know the true story... it's unfortunate that some people are so unappreciative of someone who will go out of their way to care for their home and Pets (at no charge🙃🙃)-- it just boggles my mind and am confident they are not being honest! Suffice it to say she is a gem and perfect sitter in every way- if you can get a chance to book with her- do not hesitate! We truly think of her as part of our family now and all 5 of our pups would agree!
Kate
Lindsay and Bryce provided excellent care to our two cats while we were gone. They are great communicators, took amazing care of our apartment and send regular updates and photos so that we knew all was going well. We would absolutely recommend them as responsible and thoughtful pet sitters who can be entrusted with the care of your home and pets.
Simon
BriAnna was our first pet sitter and we loved her :). She made every step very simple for us, communication was great, Pastis and Anubis seemed to be very happy with her, and the house was very clean when we came back. We highly recommend BriAnna to take care of your pets and we would love to have her back!

We had the pleasure of having Tara as our house sitter while we were away, and we can't praise her enough for the fantastic job she did. Not only did she take excellent care of our home, but she also showed tremendous love and attention to our beloved dogs. From the moment Tara walked through the door, we could tell she had a genuine passion for animals. She immediately bonded with our dogs, and they seemed completely at ease with her. Throughout our trip, she provided us with regular updates and photos, which truly put our minds at ease knowing our boys were in great hands. Tara took great care of our home as well. It was evident that she respected our space and coming back home, we found everything just as we left it, if not even better! We highly recommend Tara to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. Her communication was excellent, and she proved herself to be a responsible and dedicated individual. If you want to ensure your pets and home are in the best hands while you're away, Tara is the perfect choice. Thank you, Tara, for taking such incredible care of our dogs and home. You made our trip stress-free, and we're truly grateful.

Angela and Joe are wonderful house and pet sitters sitters in every way. They have a great loving way with animals and my shy dog warmed up to them right away. They are warm, organized, confident, and thorough. They communicated very well and gave me frequent updates and sweet photos of my dog Chica. They also took excellent care of my home. My only regret was that I didn't get to spend more time with them, because they're such lovely and interesting people. I give Angela and Joe my highest recommendation and feel that anyone would be very lucky to have them their sitters! I hope that they return to sit here again.
Cheryl
Milly was a lovely house sitter and I’d highly recommend her. She submitted a really great application and after a FaceTime chat it was an easy decision to choose her for our sit. She is the youngest sitter we’ve chosen but she has a maturity beyond her years and it was clear she had so much experience with animals that we felt confident leaving her in charge of our menagerie. Olive our young Pom has never been left with a sitter before so we were a little worried about how she would be but Milly was so patient, gentle and kind that she quickly won Olive over. So much so, on the morning Milly was leaving ,Olive would only let Milly put her harness on her before going for a walk. All the animals were perfectly cared for while we were away and we returned home to happy pets and a tidy house. Milly’s communication from our first contact and right through the sit was great and she even sent a lovely video of the dogs having fun on their walk. I’d have Milly back to housesit for us again anytime.
Mara
Jerry and Suzanne were absolutely ideal sitters for our home and pets. We spoke with them ahead of their visit and could tell that they are genuine pet and travel lovers. Over their stay we got to see even more that they are wonderfully friendly, kind, and responsible - plus they kept us laughing with their updates and descriptions of our pets' antics while we were away. Our pets and plants were well loved and our house was spotless upon our return home, and they were even kind enough to leave a few goodies in the fridge. Our dog in particular seemed to miss them and their long walks around the neighborhood. Thank you Jerry and Suzanne! We wish you well in your travels!
Nicky
Shella was a great house sitter and I had no concerns leaving her in charge when we went away. She kept in touch while we were away and we returned to happy pets and a tidy house. What more can you ask?! I would be more than happy to welcome Shella back to house sit another time.
