Experienced, reliable, and friendly house sitters with a genuine love for animals and keeping homes cared for as if it were our own

favoriteWhy we love house sitting

I love housesitting because it combines two things that feel very natural to me: being around animals and living in new places in a slow, meaningful way.

Hi,
We're Justine and Brian, friendly and reliable pet lovers who can’t wait to take care of your furry family members.

I (Justine) am originally from France and grew up on a small farm in the countryside, so animals have always been part of my everyday life. Brian is from Argentina and also grew up surrounded by pets, so caring for animals comes naturally to both of us. We especially love dogs and cats, but we’re happy to look after all kinds of pets and give them plenty of attention, ... Read more
Hi,
We're Justine and Brian, friendly and reliable pet lovers who can’t wait to take care of your furry family members.

I (Justine) am originally from France and grew up on a small farm in the countryside, so animals have always been part of my everyday life. Brian is from Argentina and also grew up surrounded by pets, so caring for animals comes naturally to both of us. We especially love dogs and cats, but we’re happy to look after all kinds of pets and give them plenty of attention, love, and cuddles.

We decided to become house/pet sitters because we know how hard it can be to leave a part of your family behind when you go away. For me (Justine), that was Hassya, an adorable French bulldog. Having someone trustworthy to care for her made all the difference when I decided to live abroad. And now it's our turn to help and we love being that reassuring presence for other pet owners.

Over the past few years, we have completed many successful housesits across Australia and New Zealand, caring for different homes and pets. Every host has been happy with the level of care, communication, and respect we provided.

We’re now living permanently in Australia. Justine works from home as a travel agent & freelance photographer, which means we spend a lot of time at home and can keep pets company throughout the day. As much as we’d love to have our own pet, we still travel occasionally, so housesitting is the perfect way for us to care for lovely animals while giving owners peace of mind.

We look forward to meeting you and taking great care of your home and your furry companions.

Read moreI have years of experience looking after a variety of pets, both through housesitting and in my personal life. I grew up with animals, so caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve looked after dogs, cats, and other small pets, each with their own personalities, routines, and needs.
My experience includes daily walks, feeding, administering basic care, giving lots of attention and playtime, and keeping pets comfortable in their usual environment. I’m used to following specific instructions, whether it’s for special diets, medications, or particular routines. I also make sure owners receive regular updates and photos so they feel reassured while they’re away. I’m calm, patient & attentive. I adapt easily to each pet’s temperament.

We can’t recommend Justine enough. She was amazing at looking after our 3 cats, 1 dog and many many plants. She’s clearly an animals lover, our dog adored her at first sight and it was such a relief to head off on our trip without any worries. Justine kept us updated throughout our 3 weeks away with messages and photos and we came back to a sparkling clean house and 4 very happy animals.
Returned after a 10 wk European holiday to a nice clean & tidy house and maintained garden. They were so friendly to relate to, had a large lawn to mow & garden to maintain on an 893 sq mt block & they did this exceptionally well, meaning we had little to do on our return. Communication with us whilst overseas was excellent and involved contacting us on the arrival of specific important mail. This allowed us to continue our travel abroad and not miss an important medical appointment & also ... MoreReturned after a 10 wk European holiday to a nice clean & tidy house and maintained garden. They were so friendly to relate to, had a large lawn to mow & garden to maintain on an 893 sq mt block & they did this exceptionally well, meaning we had little to do on our return. Communication with us whilst overseas was excellent and involved contacting us on the arrival of specific important mail. This allowed us to continue our travel abroad and not miss an important medical appointment & also ensure expected mail was dealt with. Washing of used linen was in the process immediately prior to our arrival which assisted us immensely. They made sure we had the requested food supplies for our return. Highly recommend Justine & Brian for house & garden sitting either short or long term.

Justine was a fantastic house sitter. We returned home from our trip to a very happy dog and a clean house. Justine communicated well with photos and updates which kept us happy knowing our pup was well looked after. We were very appreciative of the care Justine gave our dog. We will definitely have her back should she be available.
Justine was a terrific housesitter. She kept in regular contact with us while we were away and we came home to a spotless house and a happy dog. We would not hesitate to recommend her. She was delightful.
Thank you so much ! I had such a lovely time and would love to take care of Harry anytime !
