Angela and Owen Vaughan

55, Registered nurse

68, Plumber (retired!)

Hello!
Our names are Angela and Owen Vaughan and we are a married couple from Perth. Owen retired from plumbing in March 2022 and I took a long career break from nursing. We took a year to travel around Australia, pet sitting along the way.
Since April 2023 we have been in UK/Europe continuing our adventure.
We are non smokers, light drinkers and have no pets. We are friendly, honest, clean and respectful of people's spaces.
We have 11 five star reviews.
We both love animals and gardens and will happily care for your home and pets whilst you are away.
If you feel we would be a good fit for you please contact us. We are very happy to do a video call to chat.
We can provide references and police clearance if needed.
Hoping to hear from you soon.

Angela and Owen were unbelievable. They sent us daily updates and photos of our doggies. They even sketched us beautiful portraits of our dogs AND we were welcomed back to a delicious home cooked meal. I would highly recommend Angela and Owen.

Thanks for the lovely review. We so loved spending time with your dogs. Honestly, I can't stop thinking about them!! If you need anyone again and we are around we definitely would want after to look after them again! Please keep in touch!!
Our first house/pet sit experience, we needn't have stressed as Angela and Owen put us at ease straight away, and the pets took to them immediately. Clearly animal people, we felt secure in leaving our pets and home in their care. I had such lovely updates of our dogs on their days out, which was so heart warming and reassuring. We came home to happy relaxed and contented pets, a lovely clean house, and two stunning drawings of our dogs, by Angela! What an amazing unexpected gift! We are so ... MORE
 
ANNETTE (St Clears Wales, Mar 2024 - 2 weeks) From House Sitters UK
We love Angela and Owen. They did a great job looking after our canine girls and our home while we were away on holiday for almost 3 weeks. They are nice people and the dogs were very happy in their care. Communication leading up to the sit was excellent and they kept us in touch with events at home while we were away. They waited until we were home before they left and handed our house and girls back to us in the best condition. The icing on the cake was the meal they had thoughtfully prepared ... MORE
 
ANDY (Reading England, Mar 2024 - 2 weeks 6 nights) From House Sitters UK
A wonderful couple who were amazing with Dotty. Highly recommended
 
PAULA (Waterlooville England, Feb 2024 - 1 week 1 night) From House Sitters UK
Angela and Owen were perfect sitters for our month long trip. They took the trouble to come and meet us before we went. They were highly considerate and respectful. They communicated really well and helped us out with some logistics for our trip. So happy we met them - we now consider them friends! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜˜
 
DONNA (Pontypool Wales, Jan 2024 - 4 weeks) From House Sitters UK
Angela and Owen were amazing. They made sure we were comfortable with having them house sit from the very beginning and kept us updated with pics of our dogs. Angela went way above to make us an apple crumble and draw the most amazing portraits of our dogs. I cannot recommend Angela and Owen enough.
 
KASSIM (Worongary QLD, Apr 2023 - 3 days)
Angela and Owen are a very personable couple who did a fabulous job in sitting our loving cat Daisy ... and of course our house on acreage. Daisy took to them very quickly and certainly was very healthy on our return Our greenhouse and veggie garden were healthy and alive which we appreciated very much. Our house was left in an excellent state ... even came home to an apple crumble ready to be cooked!!!! Truly, I would recommend them to anyone looking for a great housesitting ... MORE
 
PETER (Taromeo/Blackbutt QLD, Mar 2023 - 2 weeks 5 days)
Thanks so much for letting us look after Daisy. She is the loveliest cat weโ€™ve both ever met. Unfortunately I accidentally gave her 4 stars instead of 5 ( must have had my scratched glasses on). She really is lovely and gets top marks from us.
Angela and Owen were brilliant with communication. They sent regular pictures of our cat and dog and messages every day. Our house was in perfect condition when we returned. After a long trip home we were pleasantly surprised to see a dinner and dessert prepared for us to heat and eat. We would definitely have them house sit again and recommend them to everyone.
 
ROBYN (Southside QLD, Mar 2023 - 1 week 6 days)
I've just had the gold star plus plus plus in Housesitters Angela and Owen. My show Yorkshire terriers required weekly bathing and regular coat wrapping and grooming, Angela had me show her once and was all over it. 5 dogs was a big ask for anyone to care for for a month. Came home to spotless house, well looked after dogs who had their portraits done that I will treasure forever and dinner ready to go. If you want these guys you better get in quick. I'll be after them for my next ... MORE
 
SHAYNE & GARY (Nambucca Heads NSW, Feb 2023 - 4 weeks)
Angela and Owen were a pleasure to deal with. Leading up to the sit, the communication was prompt and concise. During the sit, they contacted us daily with updates. They took excellent care of both our pets and our home. Angela also surprised us with some lovely portraits of our pets that were simply amazing! We will certainly welcome them back, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Thank you so much!
 
MICHAEL (Graceville QLD, Jan 2023 - 4 days)
Thanks for trusting us with your lovely pets. We really enjoyed looking after them. We will especially miss little Techno!
Angela and Owen are wonderful. As soon as we spoke with them I knew they were the right people to look after our girls. When they arrived Ruby and Lucy took to them immediately. During our absence we had daily photos & updates of their interactions with the girls. Ruby and Lucy were happy, cuddled, loved, content and enjoyed their daily walks with Angela and Owen. We arrived home to a clean house, happy dogs, (most importantly) and a home cooked meal. Angela also drew, by hand, 2 amazing ... MORE
 
SUSIE (Gaven QLD, Jan 2023 - 6 days)
Thanks so much Susie and Brad. We miss the girls. It was so lovely spending time with all of you. X
Ange and Owen were the BEST. We went to Europe of a month to0 visit our son and deserted our 12 year old Kelpie cross. Come on, even I am not that heartless! Owen and Ange did such a good job looking after Klepie. Maybe too good, she obviously misses them. Seriously, it was such a relief to have two sensible and practical people care for our friend and look after the house. We couldn't have asked for better sitters. We were absolutely delighted with Ange and Owen and can't give them a ... MORE
 
GENE (Wavell Heights QLD, Dec 2022 - 4 weeks)
Thank you for the lovely review you lovely people.! We miss Klepie so much, she's such a lovely girl. Thanks so much for making us so welcome.
Angela and Owen were great at looking after my naughty cat Luna and to sort things out when she managed to escape from home. Communication was very effective and on a daily basis with regular updates. The care they showed for my cat made me feel secure and comfortable when I was overseas. I am sure my cat loved them too! Highly recommended.
 
SILVIA (Pascoe Vale VIC, Jun 2022 - 1 month 1 week)
I would highly recommend angela and Owen. They have just looked after my home and my beautiful cavalier King Charles phoebe. Phoebe is very happy and my home is immaculate. They were terrific communicators. I did not worry about phoebe at all as I was getting updates and pictures. I wish them all the best for future house sits. Heather
 
HEATHER (Mount Waverley VIC, Jun 2022 - 4 days)
Thanks so much Heather. We absolutely loved looking after Phoebe and will really miss her. We had a lovely time staying in your fabulous house.
