Ann-Marie

69, Retired

69, Retired

Hello, may I introduce myself Ann-Marie and husband Terry. We are retired, active, non smoking couple who are dedicated house sitters and pet carers. We appreciate that house sitting allows us to explore Australia, getting to know new areas and families. We are a married couple, of 45 years. We Have been house sitters for 7 years now and (Platinum plus) members with Aussie housesitters. Our home is in Brisbane but we love to visit new places and care for your home and pets whist you are on holidays. Both of us were brought up in country (NSW) and have had animals and pets most of our lives. We do not own or have any animals now, as we mostly travel. I am a former nurse who loves to keep active, walk every day, garden, clean etc. We are able to provide character references if requested. We are both very active in the community and would love to care for your home and pets. We have Housesat and cared for a range of dogs, cats, horses, cattle etc. Feel free to asked any questions regarding our Housesitting. We now own a small motorhome, so need a bed to sleep in whilst Housesitting. Please read or reviews and contact us anytime.

Such a pleasure to write a review for Ann-Marie and Terry. We came home to an immaculate home, a tenaciously cared for garden and very happy and healthy pets. Our dogs demand a lot of affection (!) and Ann-Marie and Terry clearly gave it to them. Would absolutely love to have Ann-Marie and Terry sit again and would highly recommend to anyone. They really and truly went above and beyond.
 
PETER (Carcoar NSW, Jul 2023 - 4 nights)
It was lovely to meet Ann and Terry! It was so easy to go away feeling confident our dog and house would be in great hands! Everything looked beautiful when we came home. Coco was happy to see us but it was obvious she had been looked after well. We had daily communication about Coco and even several photos sent to us. We would highly recommend Ann and Terry to anyone looking for a house sitter!

Thank you for the lovely review 🐣
Thank you Anne-Marie and Terry for at short notice being the most amazing Housesitters! We felt so comfortable trusting our newly renovated home and sweet dog (Chester) to you both thanks to your thoughtfulness and wonderful communication. We were able to completely relax over the Christmas and new year period thanks to your lovely updates on your walks with Chester up the road for coffee, to the dog park and around the area. We are so glad you appreciated the clear written instruction and ... MORE
 
ROBYN (Robina QLD, Dec 2022 - 6 days)
We were thrilled to find Ann Marie & Terry on aussiehousesitters. While we did not meet in person, it was clear that we were like minded people from our email, text and phone communication. Handover was easy and they took excellent care of our home and cat for the week we were away. We would not hesitate to contact them for a return sit and recommend them highly to other home/pet owners :)
 
ANGELA (Alstonville NSW, Aug 2022 - 1 week)
From the moment We spoke with Ann Marie and Terry on the phone we knew they would be a good fit for us. Such a kind and caring couple who communicated with us the whole time we were away and sent photos of our fur babies daily. We are so thrilled to have found Ann Marie and Terry and hope to be able to use them again in the future. Thank you so much!
 
NEIL (Loira TAS, May 2022 - 1 week)
No rating Unfortunately Anne-Marie and Terry, got CO-vid, just they were about to do the house sit, so they weren't able to, but the communication and meeting them the week before was great, and i'm sure they would have looked after the place well. Would be happy to use them if they ever wanted to do it again
GRANT (Lachlan TAS, Apr 2022)
Very nice caring people, will definitely have them back again.
 
JOHN (Lindisfarne TAS, Apr 2022 - 9 nights)
Lovely couple who took care of our fur/feather babies and home. Great communication and updates throughout our trip and reassuring to have such nice people look after our home. Thank you both once again and I'm sure we will meet again sometime
 
ANGELA (Boyland QLD, Jan 2022 - 31-01/21 to 08-01-22)
Thank you for that review. Catch up sometime. You are a lovely family.
We felt very confident leaving our home and animals in the care of Ann Marie and Terry. They were very quick to respond in our initial correspondence and were in contact through out our trip to let us know everything was going well. We returned to a wonderfully clean home and animals that had been well looked after. We highly recommend them as housesitters!
 
EMMA (Beechworth VIC, Apr 2021 - 9 days)
Thanks Emma regards Ann Marie
Ann Marie and Terry were excellent housesitters and pet minders. The dogs and cats were extremely well looked after and we received regular texts to let us know everything and everyone was OK. The house, garden and lawns were well tended.

Thank you for your review
Wonderful house sitters and exceptional people - Ann Marie and Terry made our holiday a carefree and relaxed experience as they stayed in regular contact and sent happy snaps of our fur babies and garden. On our return our home was immaculate, the garden was well cared for and our pets were all happy. Ann Marie and Terry were flexible and very willing to fulfil all our requests. Highly recommended!! PS- Hope they may house sit for us again sometime.
 
CORRIE (Farnborough QLD, Sep 2019 - 11 days)
Anne-Marie and Terry were excellent house sitters while we were away for quite a long holiday. Angie, our cat was cared for and loved. I don't think she missed us at all! They are very responsible and treated our home with the utmost respect and care. Communication was frequent and friendly. I hope we have the pleasure of having Ann-Marie and Terry look after our home again at some future date. We highly recommend them for prospective house sits.
 
JANE (Albany WA, Apr 2019 - 1 month 3 weeks)
Thank you Jane for those kind words. We really enjoyed our Housesit at your place and do miss Angie
Ann-Marie and Terry are wonderful housesitters and we could not be more impressed. They stayed in touch and even sent photos of our happy pets. I can highly recommend them, the house was immaculate when we got home and I could do away with an easy mind knowing this caring couple were going to do a fine job, which they did. No problems and I think they were wonderful.

No rating Fantastic and friendly house-sitters. Ann and Terry took care of our 2 cats, 3 chickens, various fish and house plants for a week. Everything was bigger and stronger when we arrived back, and cleaner than we left it - they did some sort of magic with everything! ;) Thanks guys and good luck with your travels!
JACQUI AND ROYCE (Hermit Park QLD, May 2018 - 4 days)
No rating Ann-Marie and Terry recently did a house sit for us on our hobby farm near Gympie. We are so pleased with how well they cared for our home and all of our animals. Our two dogs were happy and healthy on our return and life had carried on for our geese, chooks and cows as if we had never left. The vegetable garden was blossoming and all other watering had been carried out as requested. I'm sure our house was cleaner on our return than before we left for our holiday! Ann-Marie and Terry were ... MORE

No rating Ann-Marie and Terry did a wonderful job of caring for our energetic Coco and fish. It was a pleasure to come home to a happy pet and well kept home. I would highly recommend them as housesitters.
LAINIE (Wondai QLD, Jun 2016 - 1 week 3 days)
No rating Ann-Marie & Terry looked after our fur family whilst we had a few days away. The fur babies had a wonderful time! I think they may have even had a better holiday than us! Always wonderful to come home knowing your family and home are well looked after and cared for. Ann-Marie and Terry did both that. Would not hesitate in recommending them to others
