The Donohues

Hi ! We adore animals and love traveling so housesitting is a perfect fit for us. These days we are privileged to be able to select places that really appeal and are situated in interesting, new territory for us. We have some great regular, repeat sits that have provided some terrific friendships over the years and have been able to explore wonderful townships and friendly communities. Whilst we prefer the quiet and enjoy the solitude of rural areas, there are times when a city break provides an opportunity to remind ourselves of what the hubabub can offer....art galleries, museums, live shows.
When not out roaming we are based in our home in Bargara, Qld. We've had police checks and held Blue Cards and have references aplenty if required.

If you feel we may be able to help you out, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Cheers, Joy and Terry

Joy and Terry were absolutely wonderful! Joy was great at communicating with us in the lead up to our trip and during our holiday! To my daughters delight we received some pictures of Coco, our much loved Cat while we were away : ) I have no hesitation in recommending Joy and Terry for house sitting; we felt very much at ease leaving our home, garden and pets in their care. It was wonderful coming home having everything taken care of beautifully x

This was my first house sit and I couldn’t be happier. It was all about my dogs. Returned home to happy relaxed dogs, beautifully cleaned house and a garden that has been immaculately maintained. Even our car was washed. Great communication before and during the stay. I would recommend Joy and Terry for any house sit. Thank you so much for looking after my house and most importantly my dogs.

We struck gold with Joy and Terry! After wonderful communications leading up to the housesit, we were excited to meet them. They're warm and caring and adored our dog Juno. We received frequent updates while away and still keep in touch. Upon return, our home was the best it had ever looked. Completely spotless and everything in its place. Most importantly, Juno was well looked after. I couldn't recommend Joy and Terry highly enough!

This was our first time at having house sitters. Joy and Terry are such a lovely couple. They have set a very high standard for future house sitters to meet! They are obliging, friendly, helpful, very tidy people. They kept in contact with us prior and during our time away which was thoughtful. They were so welcoming and caring with our 2 dogs and 2 cats We came home and it didn't have that empty feeling after being away - all the little things that they did that make such a big ... MORE

What can I say Terry and Joy looked after the babies like they were their own and I think they would have happily jumped ship, we came home to cooked meals, a beautifully clean home and some odd jobs that this dusty farmer had not got around to, if you are looking for great sitters you can't go wrong with this beautiful couple.

No rating Joy and Terry absolute lifesavers and such beautiful caring people. Couldn't have asked for better sitters and I'm pretty sure the dogs got very spoilt, I don't think they missed me at all!! Thanks sooooo much again your the best

Joy and Terry were great! They were caring towards our pets especially our very timid cat. They kept the house tidy and cared for our garden. I would have them back any day!

No rating Terry and Joy were lovely to have house sit. Nothing was a hassle and the animals were quite happy and content to stay and on our return Joy had thoughtfully remade the bed with clean sheets. Everything was well fed and tended too. Thanks again Terry and Joy feel free to housesit again on your way past.
