My wife and I are 3 years retired. We are both 62 years old and flexible with availability. We are both animal lovers. Over the past 30 years we have had 3 dogs, (Lab/cross, Rottweiler and a rescue dog - Heeler Cross Collie) that we loved and cared for very much. We always enjoyed walking our dogs 5 to 7km 5 to 7 days a week. Our last dog, Heeler Cross Collie has sadly passed. So since retiring we have decided not to get another dog due to our hopes to do more travel.
We are located in a lifestyle village Albury NSW. We often look after our next-door neighbour’s cat who recently passed and their dog a Jack Russell. He sleeps beside our bed at night, and we walk him daily. We also look after our family and friend’s animals which are 2 x dachshunds, kelpie, Italian greyhound, groodle and budgies. We always kept in contact with updates and photos while they were away.
We used to live in a large house and took pride in tidiness and maintained a large garden. Recently we have downsized to a lifestyle village which gives us more time to get involved in house sitting. We are a caring and trustworthy non-smoking couple that would look after your beloved pet and home as it was our own.

Huge thanks to Rob and Julie for their wonderful care of our 3 dogs and home. From the moment we spoke on the phone when they accepted the Housesit we felt so comfortable and relaxed with them. They arrived at our request the night before our holiday and the dogs took to them immediately. Rob sent us photos the whole time and messages and we could definitely tell they were happy with their lovely long walks and being spoilt. Our house was immaculate when we arrived home. We would very highly recommend Rob and Julie and hope they will come back again. 11/10 to you guys. Lovely to have you here. Let’s keep in touch Julie and Rich

We were incredibly lucky to have Rob and Julie stay at our home while we travelled to Europe. From the moment we connected, they were warm, reliable and genuinely interested in looking after both our home and our pets. They took wonderful care of our two dogs—daily walks, plenty of love and attention, and regular updates and photos that really put our minds at ease while we were away. We returned to an immaculate house that had clearly been cared for as if it were their own. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would welcome them back in a heartbeat. Highly recommended to anyone looking for trustworthy, thoughtful and kind-hearted housesitters.

Rob & Julie were amazing from step 1 through to walking back in the door after 3 weeks away. They were friendly, laid back, easy to talk with, diligent in communicating - even sending photos of two very spoilt cats! - & got along well with my friends & neighbours. The cats were well cared for as was the house & garden although it seems to have rained for most of their time in 'paradise'... I would happily have Rob & Julie back any time!!

Julie and Rob were perfect housesitters. Right away, meeting them online, we felt comfortable and confident that our spoilt dog would be in great hands. From our first online meeting to our continued comms, meeting them in person, handing over our keys, to returning home - the experience with Julie and Rob has been wonderful. Our house was left in perfect condition, our dog was happy and well cared for (he was possibly treated better than we could ever spoil him) and it was so nice to be on holiday and know that Rob and Julie were there! I highly recommend them for any house/pet sits and I hope they return to us in near future.

Rob and Julie was absolutely wonderful cat sitters. We would highly recommend them. They were easy to communicate with, every step of the way worked out perfect. They traveled 1700 km to stay with our cats. We will definitely call them again next time.

Rob and Julie were wonderful housesitters. Communication was easy prior to them arriving then we received regular updates and photos of Silky while we were away. Our house was left beauifully cleaned and the lawns mowed. We had a worry free holiday knowing Julie and Rob were minding our cat and our home. We would be delighted to have them house sit again and would highly recommend them to others
