favoriteWhy we love house sitting

We love housesitting because it lets us care for animals in their own home, where they feel safe and relaxed. We both grew up around pets, and in my case, with parents who are vets, so animals have always been a big part of our lives.
We justlove the feeling of being at home surrounded by animals.

Im a therapist and HR student atm and my partner is a Graphic designer. We both work from home and we are a chill couple. We’ve been living here for over 3 years, and we’ve always made an effort to stay close to animals.

We have looked after dogs, cats, donkeys, fishes and more, always adapting to each pet’s personality, needs and routine. Our priority is to make them feel safe, loved and stress-free while you are away.

Until recently, we were only in Facebook groups, where I connected with amazing families who trusted me with their pets and homes. Many of those connections still last today, and that’s one of the things I value most—building genuine, lasting relationships with both animals and their owners.

We are is calm, caring, reliable, and genuinely love animals. Together, we provide loving and trustworthy pet care.

Of course we are fully legal to stay and work in Australia, and happy to give residents references if needed.

If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, we would love to meet you. Thanks for reading and considering us!

Mycpet sitting journey started as soon as I arrived in Australia. In Sydney, I looked after my first pet (Luna, a pitbul) through a local Facebook group and quickly realized how much I enjoyed it. Then, while working in Hamilton Island, I looked after my boss’s dog.

Last year, in Cairns, I shared my days with a cheeky little dachshund who completely stole my heart. In Kangaroo Island, I’ve had the joy of looking after a full house: playful dogs, loving cats, and even a sweet and noisy donkeys and goats who made me laugh every day.
Those are just some of my long-term experiences. You are more than welcome to have a look at my references on this site :) where I cared for animals of all sizes and personalities, always with patience, love and lots of cuddles.

My 2 fur babies were so lucky to have Maneula and Nico look after them. The communications and photos sent while I was away were frequent and helped me be able to relax and enjoy my holiday. They took such great care of my 2 French Bulldogs and gave them so much love and attention (and daily walkies). It was lovely to come home to washed bedding, some food in the fridge and even some baked treats 🥰. I highly recommend Manu and Nico and look forward to catching up with them soon for a dog walk.
Our dogs really took to these sitters and seemed to enjoy being looked after by them. Plenty of messages and photos were sent to us whilst we were away keeping us up to date. Our home was left very clean and tidy when we returned, wouldn’t hesitate to have them again. Thanks so much
Manuela and Pablo were ideal house sitters. No fuss, quick with the comms. Clean house and a happy dog. Perfect.

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
