Going Places Housesitting
CARING FOR OUR FURRY FRIENDS
I’ve been a house and pet sitter for over 15 years now, caring for homes and animals full-time while travelling and working remotely, before Covid meant I had to return to Australia. During lockdown, I continued looking after other people’s pets at home in Melbourne. I’ve recently returned to Australia after living in NZ for a few years, I lived by the beach in a remote community where I got to foster, train and rehome puppies before being a house sitter during my final year there.
If your fur kids are used to sleeping on the bed, hogging the covers, snoring, or waking you up with a lick to the face… I’ve experienced it all before!
I genuinely love all creatures (except mozzies!) and have plenty of experience with animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I also care for homes without pets. Check out some of the photos I’ve taken along the way in my gallery, I always have more to add and do this as I find time.
I am now booked until 3 December 2026.
The banner photo is of myself and Ali the Border Collie taken on her private jetty at a repeat house sit in beautiful South Yunderup, Western Australia in 2018. The jetty was one of Ali’s favourite spots to visit daily and watch the local dolphins. I looked after Ali for several months at a time each year while her retired owners travelled overseas and occasional shorter sits over a number of years until her old age.
