My partner Lachie and I are currently travelling around Australia and although we don’t have any pets travelling with us, we love to look after your animals/house when you need us!

favoriteWhy we love house sitting

House sitting allows us to spend time with animals, which is really special as we are missing our families’ pets back at home (dogs, cats, alpacas, donkeys).

Depending on the duration of the stay, it allows us to get a feel for living in the area and really helps us out while travelling!

Lachie and I have lived in Victoria all our lives and we live an active, outdoorsy lifestyle. We decided to do a lap around Australia and have been on the road for 4 months.

Neither of us are working on the road at the moment, allowing us ample time to look after your beloved animals!

We are a young, friendly, organised, active couple who will keep in contact with you while you are away, and provide the best care for your loved ones when you need.

Pet care

Lachie and I have been pet sitting for the last 5 years on and off. We have looked after mainly cats and dogs, but we are used to farm animals and are open to all types of animals.

Lachie and I have been pet sitting for the last 5 years on and off. We have looked after mainly cats and dogs, but we are used to farm animals and are open to all types of animals.

We have done house sitting as well as having animals come and stay with us, and are excited to be able to keep your animals safe in the comfort of their own home while you are away.

We always keep in contact with you and respect your rules regarding walking, food, etc., as we understand how important this is in keeping your pets healthy.

We have looked after dogs as small as chihuahuas, and as large as german shepherds. We have both grown up with cats & dogs, and do not have a preference ☺️

Review

Charlotte and Lachie were exceptional house sitters. They kept our home spotless, organised, and cared for it as if it were their own. Their communication throughout the stay was excellent – keeping us updated regularly and giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. They were reliable, respectful, and incredibly thoughtful in everything they did. Beyond being fantastic house sitters, they are genuinely lovely people and were an absolute pleasure to deal with. We would welcome them ... MoreCharlotte and Lachie were exceptional house sitters. They kept our home spotless, organised, and cared for it as if it were their own.
