Hi Everyone
My grandies live in Shorncliffe so always keen to fly over to housesit.
Currently booked for a housesit in Shorncliffe, Brisbane in July..Perth August/September, Melbourne in October.

A kiwi, ex Perth now living in Far North, NZ.
Mixing housesitting, pet minding, garden maintenance, I blend my lifestyle with you and your requirements.
As I am a non smoker I prefer to housesit where smoking is not permitted inside.

Have looked after: cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, fertile eggs, pregnant ewes, cows/cattle, chooks, goats and birds.
A keen boatie/yachtie,, I did own a part share in a canal boat but sold just before COVID-19..
Also love a game of mahjong or 500 cards.
My interests are watercolour/acrylic painting, slow stitching, jigsaw puzzles, and knitting.
I do not look after pets or animals that require medication.

Police clearances, references available on request plus I can speak to you via messenger, or WhatsApp or I can phone you.
I belong to both Kiwi and Aussie housesitter websites and housesit on a regular basis in both countries.

Brenda and Murray were a delight to deal with from the start. We had a chat over the phone and instantly felt secure with our decision to book them as our four week housesitters while we were overseas. They downloaded WhatsApp for us so we could keep in regular contact with photos and adventure news. They helped maintain our indoor cats diet and Murray walked and played with our Wolfhound X dog daily. We felt very relaxed and assured our pets and home were well cared for while we were on the ...

Thank you, Alisha, Martin and Hayden for choosing us. We loved our time on your property, your home complemented with Jada and Jetty, along with Trooper, Barli, the chooks and ducks made the housesit an amazing experience. All the animals were easy going, friendly and a lot of interactive fun was ... MORE
This was our first petsitter and we were naturally a bit apprehensive, but we met Brenda first, and felt very comfortable with her. Brenda is so lovely and caring and nothing is too much trouble for her. Our furbabies were well cared for and we appreciated the photos and updates. It was lovely to come home to a clean, tidy house and 2 happy cats. I would highly recommend Brenda and will definitely use her services again!!
 
LYNN (Mangawhai North Island, Oct 2023 - 2 weeks 6 nights) From Kiwi House Sitters
We have had several house sitters over the last 2 years. They have all been absolutely great but Brenda comes out top. She loved our very human attention demanding cat Ludo, looked after our house and plants and left everything immaculate. Great communication . We would have her back in a heart beat.
 
CLAIRE (RD1 Kamo North Island, Aug 2023 - 11 nights) From Kiwi House Sitters
We had Brenda house sit for us in August while we were away visiting family. She took excellent care of our home, pets, house plants and garden. Brenda also was an excellent communicator, giving us updates every couple of days. We returned home to a sparkling clean home, happy pets and plants and even to a prepared meal in the freezer! Brenda really did go the extra mile with her housesitting and we will be booking her again for future house sits. A Highly recommended house sitter

Brenda & Murray were good sitters, communication was excellent. The pets were well cared for & spoilt. They left the house clean and tidy . It was good to go away and know everything was in good hands. Thanks Brenda & Murray
 
PHIL (Rothwell QLD, Apr 2023 - 2 weeks 1 day)
Brenda and Murray house sit for while we went away for the weekend. We received updates on how our furbabies were getting on while we were away, which we really appreciated. Their communication was great and we knew exactly what was going on, greatly appreciated. The house was spotless when we got home, We would highly recommend Brenda and Murray to house sit and pet sit with out any hesitation. We wish them both well for the future travels.
 
TONI (Kamo , Mar 2023 - 1 day) From Kiwi House Sitters
Brenda and Murray looked after our house, cat, hens and took care of our pot plants. It was great to have them at our house, esp. looking after Pippy the cat. We returned home to a clean house, a happy cat, and a cooked dinner. We also enjoyed a few games of 500 with them! Thoroughly recommended.
 
SANDRA (Omokoroa North Island, Jul 2022 - 12 days) From Kiwi House Sitters
Brenda and Murray were perfect - I felt at ease leaving them to look after my house and 2 kids (I mean cats ) I will definitely ask them again and fully recommend them.
 
KATHY (Kerikeri , Dec 2021 - 3 nights) From Kiwi House Sitters
Hi Kathy We thoroughly enjoyed looking after Willow and Shadow, friendly, independent cats with wonderful personalities. Kathy's home was very comfortable, private and modern. Would love to sit again.
Brenda and Murray will be welcomed back. Was so easy knowing our property was in such good hands, They did a great job. Thanks again guys.
 
JENNI (Traveston QLD, Jun 2021 - 1 week 3 days)
From the moment we met Brenda and Murray we felt at ease with them caring for our home and furbabies. From when they first entered our home, they made sure they introduced themselves to the pets. During our time away they kept in touch with us sending photos of our furbabies. That was a beautiful gesture that we appreciated greatly. Our home was cared for and kept clean and tidy. We would have no hesitation recommending Brenda and Murray. We would certainly have them back again.
 
GREG & MICHELLE (Kingsthorpe QLD, Jun 2021 - 2 weeks)
Thank you for your kind words, we enjoyed looking after Lara, Ollie and Clover-the cat with attitude plus. Easy going dogs, who are happy to oblige, coupled with a spa and a very comfortable bed made this housesit very enjoyable. Brenda and Murray
