NOTE: Heading to Sth Aus to spend time with family. We are currently in North QLD till the 1st week of March and anticipate arriving in Sth Aus around the end of March -Early April.


We are a married, healthy, retired couple, both non-smokers, who have been house-sitting full-time for over ten years. After selling our business in Port Macquarie, NSW, we are now indulging in our love of travelling. Before running our own business, we were long-term Military personnel and then worked in the Corporate Sector.

As responsible individuals, we have owned and rented properties, maintained pools and various gardens, and are adept at handling any issues that may arise. We are mindful of the care and security required to maintain a property.

We have extensive experience with animals, having had numerous pets, both large and small, over the years. We are well-versed in caring for both young and older pets. We enjoy gardening and look forward to tending to the different gardens that come with house-sitting.

Being retired gives us plenty of time to look after your home, garden, and pets. We have travelled extensively around Australia and parts of Europe and cherish the experiences new places offer. When travelling overseas, we prefer staying in local holiday spots rather than tourist-oriented areas.

We relish the experience of living like locals and welcome the opportunity to be involved in day-to-day life, discovering the beauty of local areas. This approach is far more rewarding than merely ticking off tourist spots.

House sitting allows us to slowly discover new places, meet people, and enjoy the company of pets of all varieties, both large and small. We can provide references from other house-sitting sites.

Thank you Tanya and Rod, It was so lovely to have you in our home. Ivy missed you both. I would like to thank you both for looking after our family pet dog Ivy, and it was so nice to come home to a lovely clean home. Thank you for the pics and updates. Tiffany Marshall

It was an absolute delight to have Tanya & Rod house sit & look after our treasured Chewy. We received regular updates & photos - Chewy looked right at home in their company. While we missed him terribly, it was a wonderful feeling to know he was being well looked after. Also especially grateful they were prepared to be flexible leaving for their next house sitting gig if we were delayed due to Cyclone Alfred. We'd be delighted to invite Tanya & Rod back

Tanya and Rod were excellent house sitters. They looked after our pets really well; gave them all the love they needed while we were away for over 6 weeks. Tanya kept us in the loop with how our 3 dogs and cat were going and often sent us photos of our fur babies. When we arrived, the house was perfectly clean and tidy. We would highly recommend Tanya and Rod to house sit for you.

Tanya and Rod looked after our home for 11 months. We were very happy with the regular updates on the property and the way they stepped up to help us with a matter while we were on the other side of Australia . They kept the house very clean and tidy and the gardens were looked after exceptionally well. Thanks Tanya and Rod would recommend to anyone and would have them house sit again

Our first time using house sitters and Tanya&Rod were amazing. Looked after our two big dogs, gave us regular updates on dogs and our pool being built. The house was immaculate when we arrived home. They went above and beyond even doing my washing left. Truely grateful for having Tanya&Rod as our first house sitter experience. Couldn’t of asked for any better
