Heather and Martin

63, Retired

66, Retired

We are a fit and healthy retired couple who reside in rural Victoria but also travel with our off road 18 ft caravan. We mostly stay in peoples homes.
We keep fit walking at least 5 km every day and are experienced with domestic pets from having our own animals. We have always have cats. Larger dogs like kelpies and labs are our favourites. Martin loves the chooks. We love being in the garden and are happy to do basic garden maintenance and mowing.
House proud, we are experienced housesitters with excellent reviews so we are only interested in staying in clean homes.
Our preference is for homes in rural or coastal locations on large blocks or acreage but will consider all options.
We have additional references available.

Heather and Martin are the perfect sitters, who we have asked to sit on numerous occasions. They have now become friends. If you’re looking for reliable, kind, thoughtful sitters, who communicate well and use their initiative, you’ve found them in Martin and Heather.

I highly recommend Heather and Martin. I talked over the phone to Heather a few times before meeting and felt very comfortable with her and it was fully confirmed when I met them both. Fabulous couple and have no hesitation in recommending them as house sitters. They looked after my 4 cats and sent regular messages and photos of them. I arrived home to a meal ready to cook in the fridge and a clean house. Hoping the next time I go away they can stay again

Thank you Jane. We would love to come back.
You couldn’t ask for more in a housesitter! Heather and Martin are reliable, capable, kind and use their initiative. They went way beyond the call of duty, in caring for our pets and home. We would highly recommend Heather and Martin and will be asking them to sit again.

Thank you!
Thank you Heather and Martin for taking care of our precious Rag doll boys Remi and Axel and our home. From the first contact Heather and Martin were professional and friendly. Everything flowed so well with emails, phone calls and handover of our home. Heather sent us regular updates and pictures which was reassuring for us. We had a wonderful relaxing holiday knowing that all was well at home. Upon returning home I was so impressed. Our boys were healthy and happy and they had left our ... MORE

So delightful to meet Heather and Martin and have them look after our pets. A beautiful caring couple whom we knew as soon as we met them we would not have to worry about a thing. Our house was immaculate when we returned and the communication whilst we were away was fab! We received photos of our babies and general updates. We would highly recommend Heather & Martin!

Thank you Janine and Adam. It was a pleasure.
10/10 house sitters. You can't go wrong with Martin and Heather! Martin and Heather are easy to get along with, caring and use their initiative. They left our home spotless, (even washing their sheets and towels before leaving) Our pets received royal treatment, (including beach runs for our dog.) It was wonderful to have peace of mind that such capable people were house sitting and to be kept up to date with their regular text messages.
