Attentive and Kind Sitters

38, Human Resource Consultant

41, Chef

Hello,

We are Kitty and Terry, two highly competent and experienced sitters!

Thank you for visiting our profile.

About us:
We are a couple of two very gentle and respectful souls - the perfect match. We are house proud and great with animals. We naturally attract animals of all kinds, but certainly cats befriend us the most.

We have completed 100+ sits over the past 5 years, caring for all sorts of animals and homes.

Kitty - 38, a HR professional who works from home very frequently (with usually a cat or dog on her lap).
Super fun and energetic - Kitty adores animals of all shapes and sizes. Having grown up on a farm, Kitty has lots of practice getting to know and caring for chooks, poddy lambs, cats, dogs, ducks, horses - and many other pets! She puts great effort into tending to the different needs of the animals she cares for. She's happy to 'get her hands dirty' in the garden and mow the lawns to keep everything in great condition. Kitty is an extremely experienced house sitter, having previously undertaken various assignments via house sitting sites.

Terry - 41, contract chef who works varied hours and has a different working schedule to Kitty.
A top notch human who is highly domesticated and is excellent at getting things done thoroughly (no corners to be cut in his mind). Terry truly radiates kindness in all areas of life. He's also an experienced house sitter and has a soft spot for rescue and special needs pets.

Our house sitting 'style':
The well-being of your home and pets is our priority; ensuring everything that needs to be done, is done and done well, and that things are kept clean, tidy and in order.

We are sitters that spend a lot of time with the animals in our care. We work different schedules to one another, so at least one of us is usually always home. As mentioned, Kitty also works from home very frequently. This way of working enables us to provide the animals in our care with loads of company, countless pats, chats, cuddles, walks and anything else they require. We also come with a knack for terrible jokes.

We are very flexible and happy to fit in with your requirements. We understand the importance of the right 'fit' when opening your home and handing over care of your pets.

We are happy to keep in touch as much or as little or as you like while we are sitting in your home, to ensure you have comfort that your pets and home are in great care.

Our house for a short time is your home for a long time so respecting your space is really important to us. We would love the opportunity to chat about your specific needs further.

We hope to speak with you soon.

Kitty and Terry were absolutely fantastic with my home and my fur babies. They assisted in making the whole process very stress free. I received regular updates while I was away and returned to happy pets and a spotless home. Kitty and Terry are very kind, caring and easy-going and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a sit. They will definitely be the first people I contact for future sits.
 
CHRIS (Viewbank VIC, Jan 2024 - 1 week 4 nights)
Kitty and Terry were incredible house sitters. It was our first time having housesitters so we were a bit unsure as to how it would all work but Kitty and Terry put us at ease straight away and we were so comfortable leaving our home, cat, dog, and garden in their care. The kept us up-to-date regularly with photos and messages and the whole process was incredibly smooth and easy. I would highly recommend Kitty and Terry to anyone! They exceeded all expectations.
 
FELICITY (Surrey Hills VIC, Jul 2022 - 3 months)
We can't speak highly enough about Kitty and Terry, they were absolutely amazing with taking care of our home and aquaponic system during their 4 month stay. They were brilliant communicators, with a mindfulness and respect that gave us a lot of reassurance that our home was in good hands. On our arrival home, the house was impeccable, with a little surprise for us in the fridge! We would highly recommend Kitty and Ian to anyone, and we would have them back in a heart beat!
 
DIANE (Ninderry QLD, Aug 2020 - 4 months)
Kitty and Terry filled us with confidence to leave and holiday without worrying about our two beloved dogs and this trust was shown to be true as we returned to two healthy happy dogs that had been walked twice a day. The house we think was left better than we left it - and I'd have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone considering their services.
 
IRENE (Noosaville QLD, Jul 2020 - 6 days)
We loved meeting Kitty and Terry and most importantly, so did our Stan! They took wonderful care of him and sent us regular messages, photos and updates of Stan's antics! Will be my first call next time we are away.
 
KAREN (Spotswood VIC, Mar 2020 - 5 days)
Kitty and Terri looked after our precious 6 yr old cavoodle and our home for 3 weeks in January. Kitty kept us posted with how both Archie and our house was doing as there were fires and severe hail storms occurring at the time. Archie never skipped a beat. He was so happy and healthy when we got home. Our home and garden were very well looked after. Our place sparkled it was so clean and tidy. They had even put a few things in our fridge for us to get us started on our return. ... MORE

CLAIRE (Sunshine VIC, Nov 2019 - 2 days)
Thanks so much for the review Claire - I hope your trip away was fabulous!
No rating Kitty And Terry completed a 2.5 month house sit for us recently. They were reliable, thoughtful and we came back to a happy cat and immaculately cleaned house. Also a bottle of wine showing that they appreciated the opportunity to sit for us! Kitty communicated with me while we were away, which was great for us to know everything was ok. I've no hesitation in recommending them to you. They were outstanding among our house sitters. Janeece
JANEECE (Thornbury VIC, Jun 2019 - 2 months)
