We are a mature aged couple who have travelled extensively, both overseas and interstate and we are now looking to explore our own state in more depth. We are available to sit your property and care for your pets.

I, Heather, have recently be involved with Pawshakes.com.au to care for pets, and we have just finished looking after an Australian Assistance Labrador pup.
We have owned our house for 30 years, and would look after your property with the same care as we give our own.

I, Heather, have been a qualified librarian for 20 years with NSW DET. and also in charge of a private library.

We are now a semi-retired couple having run a small engineering drafting business..
Peter has engineering qualifications which makes him a capable handyman.

We are non-smokers and although we love pets we do not have our own as we travel so often and therefore will be able to give yours all our attention.
We are both fully vaccinated for covid, and have both had the booster vaccine.

Heather and Peter were terrific. We came home to a very happy dog and immaculately clean house. We will definitely use them again.
 
ANDREW (Kurraba Point NSW, Feb 2024 - 2 nights)
Heather and Peter were just lovely - easy to communicate with, and really great with our much loved beagles. This was our first time using house sitters and I felt a little unsure - but felt quite reassured after speaking with Heather and Peter. Def recommend this lovely couple.
 
SUZANNE (Seaforth NSW, Nov 2023 - 4 nights)
Heather and Peter did a great job looking after our two large dogs. They obviously cared well for them, sent updates and even located a tick on our Golden which they notified us of. Our house was left immaculate and we would be more than happy to recommend Heather & Peter to anyone looking for honest and reliable house sitters. We will definitely look to them for our next short term adventure away from the fur babies.
 
MARGARET (Pokolbin NSW, Sep 2023 - 3 nights)
How lucky I was to have Heather and Peter house sit for me. Excellent communication and just warm, lovely care for my dogs and home. So appreciated and looking forward to them staying again soon. Very highly recommended.
 
ELIZA (Armidale NSW, Feb 2023 - 6 days)
Heather and Peter were excellent experienced housesitters - communicated well, kept us posted, took great care of our dogs and other jobs, and we had full confidence in them being at our place the whole time. Highly recommend!
 
LINDSAY (Orange NSW, Jan 2023 - 5 days)
Heather and Peter were great house/dog sitters. They were very communicative and made sure in advance they knew the requirements for the dogs and the house set up, so there were no issues during the stay, including checking back in with me after one of our dogs was ill before their stay. They texted during their stay to confirm all was going well. The dogs looked very relaxed and happy when we returned. Would recommend and use again.
 
MEGAN (Bondi NSW, Dec 2022 - 3 days)
We met Heather and Peter for morning tea prior to them house sitting for us. After this meeting we felt more than comfortable to let them look after our property and animals. During our break they sent photos of Millie and Izzie to let us know that everything was going well. On our return we found the house as clean as we left it and the animals well cared for. We would have no hesitation in recommending Heather and Peter to look after other properties and hopefully can get them back soon to ... MORE
 
GREG (Port Macquarie NSW, Aug 2022 - 4 days)
Heather and Peter house and pet sat for me here in Berry. The pets were relaxed, well cared for and happy on my return and the house was cleaner than when I left. I've no hesitation recommending them to you as housesitters.
 
DAVID (Berry NSW, Jul 2022 - 5 days)
Heather and Peter were perfect house sitters. They took great care of not only our dog, taking her for long walks, but our house too. They were also very understanding when we had to cut our trip short. Would definitely recommend.
 
LIZZY (Pretty Beach NSW, Jan 2022 - 3 days)
Heather and Peter were wonderful house and dogsitters. We could relax and enjoy our break, knowing that our dog, Molly, was being well cared for. I particularly appreciated that they left the house clean and tidy and washed their linens and towels before they left. We will definitely ask for them the next time we go away!
 
CLAIRE (Cremorne NSW, Oct 2021 - 4 days)
Heather and Peter were wonderful house and dog sitters who bonded so beautifully with Belle our GSP puppy. Their attention to detail in looking after our home was perfect and we received messages and photos of Belle frequently which set our minds at rest so we could enjoy our trip to Melbourne. Thank you to you both!
 
EVA (Newport NSW, May 2021 - 6 days)
Wonderful House sitters, will certainly be using them again. Highly recommend
 
JOANNE (Balmain NSW, Feb 2021 - 1 night)
Heather & Peter were wonderful! They communicated with us regularly to let us know how Rocky was doing. I'm sure Rocky enjoyed their company! They took good care of our house too, and it was left clean & tidy on their departure. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Heather & Peter as Housesitters. We'll definitely be booking them for our next holiday, if they are available.
 
KYLIE (Camden NSW, Dec 2020 - 5 days)
Heather and Peter were just so fantastic. Our animals and home were so well cared for and we were able to relax knowing they were in good hands. Heather sent us some reassuring updates during our time away, and when we came home the house was beautiful and tidy and our dog had been walked and left with a treat. We will definitely like to have Heather and Peter back again!
 
KATE (KIRRIBILLI NSW, Oct 2020 - 2 days)
Heather and Peter are a lovely couple who looked after Kirby, the puppy Yoshi and Tiger the cat. They arrived on time for a hand over and on our return the house was very clean and tidy, not an easy task when there's furry animals and a puppy around. The dogs were well and happy and had had a good walk in the morning and Tiger was his normal vocal self. Heather left a lovely note and I hope they will come and house sit again in the future.
 
MANDY (Clontarf NSW, Jul 2020 - 3 days)
Heather and Peter did a great job looking after our dog Strike. The house was clean and tidy when we returned and Strike looked like he was well walked and had a ball! They were so in good in fact that I have booked them again for this weekend!
 
RICHARD (Leichhardt NSW, Oct 2019 - 4 days)
Recently Heather and Peter house sat for us and looked after our 2 staffies (20 months and 6 years). Heather kept me updated on the dogs which was appreciated. On return the dogs were happy and the house was neat and tidy just as we'd left it. I would have no problem recommending them for a similar housesit and have already made plans with them for future dates. Very happy.
 
SANDRA (Tea Gardens NSW, Aug 2019 - 4 days)
Heather and Peter were fantastic house sitters and came home to a very clean house so highly recommend them. They were very easy to communicate with and gave us regular updates on the dogs so couldn't have asked for more.
 
BEN (Seaforth NSW, May 2019 - 3 days)
Great house sitting team - very patient with our weimaraner who is still has a little bit of puppy in her and the house was in better shape than when we left it. Great communication and lovely people - highly recommend Heather and Peter.
 
EMMA (Glebe NSW, Jan 2019 - 4 days)
Heather was very accommodating to our requests to help sit (and keep up training) of our strong willed puppy Labrador. We met them ahead of the sit and they made lots of effort and our pup liked them lots. There were no issues or questions, Heather was super competent and confident and we came home to a happy Lab and safe home. Thank you! Would fully recommend.
 
CLAIRE (Paddington NSW, Dec 2018 - 6 days)

KERRIE (Bonnells bay NSW, Dec 2018 - 3 days)
No rating Heather and Peter were terrific house sitters. They were easy to communicate with and looked after our dogs, chickens and house as if their own. Our house was beautifully clean on our return and everything was in perfect order. Highly recommend Heather and Peter.
KIM (Mitchells Island NSW, Jul 2018 - 1 week 2 days)

CHRISTIE-LEE (Junction Hill NSW, Mar 2018 - 1 week)
No rating I highly recommend Heather & Peter for house sitting. They left our house in excellent condition. They also sent us regular updates and photos of our dog Boris and walked him twice a day, which he absolutely loved! I would not hesitate to use them again next time we go on holidays. Thank you for making our trip away worry free. :)
MIMMA (Pitt Town NSW, Jan 2018)
No rating Heather and Peter just looked after our house and two beagles for four nights and we couldn't be happier with their house sit. The house was left really clean and tidy, the dogs were very happy and they sent us updates when we asked how the dogs were going. Highly Recommend!
MICHAEL (Mudgee NSW, Dec 2017 - 4 days)
No rating Heather and Peter looked after our dog and house for a week. They took great care of our dog, taking her for regular walks every day. And they left the house spotless.
