Hello! Our names are Daphne and Louis. We're both travelling veterinarians working our way across Australia and we love caring for all things furry, feathery and scaly.

favoriteWhy we love house sitting

We love house and pet sitting because we love developing a relationship with each individual pet. Housesitting allows the time for that bond to form in their own environment.

Daphne: Hi! I grew up in Cyprus alongside many dogs, very very many cats and one turtle. I then studied and worked in England for the last 10 years as a vet and have made the jump to Australia for work and travel this year.

I also studied and worked in London for the last 10 years.

We decided to move to Australia for work and travel, and are working across Australia from west to east, housesitting between jobs. We're quiet, experienced with all animals and temperaments and committed to care.

Pet care

We both pet sat separately in the past and together in the last few years in London. One repeat visitor in London was my teariest goodbye when I had to leave! We have done both daycare and overnight stays in owner's houses for a range of times. We have taken care of young and healthy pets as well ... Read moreWe both pet sat separately in the past and together in the last few years in London. One repeat visitor in London was my teariest goodbye when I had to leave! We have done both daycare and overnight stays in owner's houses for a range of times. We have taken care of young and healthy pets as well as older ones with conditions requiring medications on a daily basis. We've loved adapting to the different pets routines and needs including walking, feeding (treats especially if they are allowed), toileting and bed times!
