Clean-living, quiet, healthy, non-smoker Melbourne-born female.
––––––––––––––––––
Hello! My name is Jenny.
I have a lot of experience house-pet-sitting! A variety of animals: dogs, cats, horses, chickens, birds.
––––––––––––––––––
I am a single, professional female, responsible, respectful, affectionate and caring with a natural rapport and experience with dogs and cats and other animals too! I adore them.
I work mostly online so I’m home a lot. And pets have my company almost 24/7. I'm also immaculate in the home , and similarly greatly appreciate a clean & neat home upon arrival.

I have a long list of 5 star reviews & testimonials in addition to the ones displayed on this membership site. If not visible on my profile, I can send you the PDF upon request.
——————————-
Why am I /do I housesit:
It’s very rewarding as I love the company of animals; I don’t have my own pets so it’s extra special; also a mutual advantage for both the owner and me to care for their home and pets as I work online and able to provide the care and attention for the pets;
And an added little bonus to enjoy different pockets of Melbourne! Even though I am from Melbourne!
————————
I enjoy living a fit, healthy, clean, and tranquil life. I care for your house with respect and pride; I care and love your pets as if they were my own (lots of attention!).
I enjoy my work (teach in allied health space), reading, walks/nature, and I appreciate nature, beaches, forests, parks and peace. I also enjoy some creative urban cultural stimulation. I am respectful of my surroundings, the community, and your neighbours.
–––––––––––––––––
I'm a non-smoker, non-drinker, no parties, no drugs, nor enjoy/play loud music; I don’t watch/own a TV - just interesting things on Youtube occasionally.
My mornings might be to go for a walk (and take your dog walking if you have one), feed your pet and/or cuddles. My days will also involve working online, studying, reading, or some other creative activity (drawing).
Maybe a cafe visit, or a pilates or yoga class, or perhaps exploring the neighbourhood. My writing & course creation online work keeps me busy and content being in the home for most of the time.
During day, as per instructions from you, I’ll schedule tasks that are required of me such as feeding/walking pets, tending to plants/garden, and anything else that needs care and attention.
Evenings might be cuddling your pet, more walking, reading or watching something on youtube.
I'm ok with cats sleeping with me (in fact, I love it) and even small dogs too, if part of the house-sit arrangement and what the pets prefer to feel most loved and comfortable.
––––––––––––––––––

Other details:
- I have a full drivers license (auto), however, I do not currently have a car.
Never been an issue. Sometimes owners include car access, especially if in an area that has limited public transport, or if the housesit is interstate.
- I take pride in looking after your home as if my own - I'm immaculate in the house (see all reviews). I therefore appreciate your home to be similarly clean and tidy.
- I am happy to provide more photos for you, or have a video chat.
Similarly, to proceed with a potential house-sit arrangement, please provide photos of your home inside/out, and of course, your pet(s).
Dates advertised:
Sometimes house-owners request for the sitter to arrive & stay 1-2 days prior to official housesit dates. This is perfectly suitable and appropriate - and I've done this several times and always a pleasure and a comfortable time. Please ensure this is mentioned in your ad description or private message to me, if not included in the housesit dates.
I'm currently available from:
February 19th - March 17th, 2026.
And again from May 6th, 2026 onwards.
I have a preference for longer house-sits of approx 1-month-plus. Though open to shorter ones.
