66, Retired

I'm a retired mechanical fitter, having finished work with Rio Tinto in Yarwun Queensland. The house we built and owned was in Tasmania that's been sold some time ago and we travel extensively; we have no pets our 2 old dogs have died. We are both fit and enjoy life, non drinkers and smokers, we like gardening and animals, we understand the commitment to pets, for many years we were restricted in our own travel plans because of pets and property. If you are looking for someone to treat your pets and property with the respect and love you lavish upon them give us a call.

No rating Doug and Josie are just the most lovely and amazing people. They looked after our dogs and house for a month. The house was spotless and the dogs so relaxed and happy. I would thoroughly recommend them.

Doug and Josie came to care for our home and our two crazy poodles. We were away for 7 weeks. These lovely people cared for our home as if it was their own but most importantly our fur babies were loved and looked after. We came home to happy poodles and our home as we left it. We also appreciated the photos and updates. We have no hesitation in recommending these lovely people. We will most certainly be calling Doug and Josie again.

How wonderful to return home again to a pristine home and a bathed and beautiful Molly dog. This was a return visit for house sitters extraordinaire Doug and Josie and we know our home and animals are in great hands. We had a window shatter ( next doors ball??) while In our absence and Doug competently dealt with everything and organised repairs . We hope Doug and Josie will Sit again in the future!

Doug and Josie have just finshed a 2 month house sit for us. We arrived home to a warm welcome , The house was perfect gardens looking great and for the first time in history Sunny our cat did not care that we were back. I would have no hesitation in using this lovely couple again. I wish them all the best.

We were very happy with our housesitters Doug and Josie. Our cat Jasmine was well taken care of (more like spoilt) and the house was in great condition on our return. We would certainly use them again if available and would recommended them highly.

No rating Doug and Josie are not only lovely people, they are fantastic pet sitters. BOTH of my pets took to them quickly and were very content in their company when we left the following day of their arrival. Our home was also treated to a little tlc , something I did not expect but made coming homee that much more wonderful. We do not hesitate to recommend them.

No rating We returned today (11/2/18 dates on the posting are incorrect!) and we are delighted to say that Doug and Josie and wonderful house sitters. We met up with them previously as they came through town and were taken with their friendly and adaptable personalities. Nothing was any trouble for them. On our return we were delighted with the presentation of our home, everything was immaculate flowers on the bench and my husband was so happy to see the yard in such fine condition after a 2 month ...
