Count the ways a pet makes a home Reviews

Hello!
I am a single female non smoker, coming from WA to study in northern NSW from late February-June 2026.

I have been house sitting for over 2 years after enjoying WWOOFing through much of Covid. The nomadic lifestyle fosters my natural curiosity for new places and disposition to connect with pets like they were my own. I enjoy getting to know and caring for other people's space, and leaving the property better than when I arrived. I enjoy staying in contact while you're away from home, giving updates and sending photos.

I'm currently living in Denmark, WA and have half a dozen referees who will gladly take a phone call to assure you of my capabilities and reliability.

Originally from the wheatbelt and with science and sustainability degrees, I have always loved animals whether wild or domesticated and find their company invaluable and fascinating. I am accustomed to rural properties and have looked after joeys and lambs, cared for sick goats and chickens and navigated cheeky cows. I have ridden horses all my life and worked as a horse trail guide.

I am an active person and love walking in nature, wild swimming, cycling and exploring new places. I love to be in the garden reclaiming overgrown corners, raising seedlings and building soil.

I look forward to meeting you and your pets and would be honoured to care for them.

“Elli is an absolute treasure. Our farm means a lot to us as do our animals. Elli cared for everything beautifully. She is observant and caring. She nursed our sick goat back to health. Having someone who is intelligent, notices things, checks in regularly and truly cares about everything that is important to you is such a blessing. Plus, she clearly does love animals which shines through in everything she did during our house sit. We would have her back in a heartbeat.”

“Elli was a great house sitter and cat minder. I felt I could rely and trust her and would fully recommend her. She kept me updated whilst I was away and I came home to happy cats. I hope she will sit for me in the future. thanks Elli regards Denise”

Helpful Report

“Elli is highly recommended as a house sitter. She is friendly with good communication skills. Our house and variety of pets were well cared for and kept in very clean condition. She handled a number of unforeseen issues (One being a broken hot water system) with the same thoughtfulness she gave to our pets. Would definitely use her services again”

“Elli was a fantastic house and dog sitter! And my dog is not the easiest dog :). The house was left very clean and Buster was well taken care of (including beach walks which he loved). I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Elli to anyone interested in a reliable, friendly and caring sitter! Excellent communicator too!”
