Dearlings on the Road

72, Retired

We are a retired couple who are travelling in our 25ft 5th Wheeler. We own a home in Hervey Bay which we rent out full time. We have been travelling around Australia since 2015, started housesitting 4 years ago and really enjoy these breaks in our travels. We like the flexibility it gives us to choose where we would like to spend some extra time. We ran our own tyre services for 35 years and I also worked at Hervey Bay Hospital for 16 years before we decided to travel fulltime. We love the travelling lifestyle but feel like we needed to try something different, hence the housesitting. We are both active so walking dogs is no problem, and I enjoy gardening and would keep your gardens in good shape. Alan is happy to look after horses if necessary. We have previously owned homes with a pool so they are no problem. Our 5th wheeler is quite high so we need a clear level area to park up. As long as we can plug into power and use your indoor facilities, we are happy to either stay in our van or in your home, whichever suits you. I consider ourselves to be a very reliable couple and we will definitely treat your home as if it is our own.

Julieanne and Allan have been fantastic house sitters. Being the first time we invited someone in to house sit our home and look after our babies, they quickly put our minds at ease with their wisdom, understanding and preparedness to go the extra mile. We found them to be open, honest and easy to communicate with. They kept us informed with photos and messages about how our elderly pets were going in our absence, which meant we could relax and enjoy our time away. We returned to a beautiful ... MORE

Julieanne and Alan were my first house sitters, so naturally I was a bit nervous beforehand but after meeting this wonderful couple i was totally put at ease and knew my fur babies would be in the very best hands! My home was looked after as if it was their own and I can't thank them enough. They were amazing and I wouldn't hesitate to have them back in a heartbeat! Thanks again! All the best for your travels.
 
PETRA (Gosnells WA, Dec 2023 - 1 week 4 nights)
Julieanne and Alan did a wonderful job housesitting for us while we were away on holiday. They were easy to communicate with and even came a day early to meet us, our dog, and to set up at the house. They kindly got us some milk & eggs for our arrival home and stayed an extra night so we could catch up the following morning before they headed off on their next adventure. We were very appreciative of the care Julieanne and Alan took of our house and our dog while we were away. He was very well ... MORE

Julieanne and Alan were fantastic.! Our house was spotless, the animals were happy and healthy and we didn't have a single worry while we were travelling. I would highly recommend Julieanne and Alan and I hope we can get them back again when we travel in the future!
 
KELLY (Newport QLD, Dec 2022 - 1 month 1 week)
YOUR RESPONSE: Thanks to Julieanne and Alan for accepting my house sit. It certainly made it easier to be away for a period of time without worrying about my dog's well-being and the house and garden. Very thankful for the care taken and for Alan doing a few fixup jobs needed around the house - thankyou! Julieanne kept me updated on occasion with pics of my dog which put me at ease. Overall I was impressed with Aussie Housesitting service - the ease with which I was able to connect with people ... MORE

DEE AND GORDO (Kurrimine Beach QLD, Sep 2022 - 2 weeks 1 day)
Amazing house sitters, left our house in a perfect condition and we're always east to contact. 10/10 would love to have you back again.
 
JACKSON (Warana QLD, Jan 2021 - 3 weeks)
My husband and I were lucky enough to have Julieanne and Alan house sit for us for 2 weeks over Christmas. We just got home today and it was so lovely to come home to a spotless house and happy, well cared for pets. We had regular updates and photos from home to show how much our dog, cats and horses were enjoying being spoilt in our absence, which made our holiday stress free. A huge thank you must also be given to Alan for dealing with our internet outage after a storm and having to install a ... MORE

thanks so much for this wonderful review.
Julieanne and Allan were very good house sitters allowing us to enjoy our time away safe in the knowledge that Max the cat and our three chooks were in good hands. Coming back to a home cooked meal was lovely. I would recommend them and would also use them again in future.
 
JANICE (The Gurdies VIC, Jan 2020 - 1 week 2 days)
Julienne and Alan what fantastic house sitters. Dogs have had a great time and everything was well looked after. Communication with Julianne and Alan was brilliant. Highly recommend them
 
HELEN (Drummond North VIC, Jan 2020 - 9 days)
Julianne and Alan were fantastic. Our home was left beautifully clean, happy dog and bird. Very easy communication and clarification of details of our house, Will definitely have them back.
 
LARISSA (Werribee VIC, Dec 2019 - 1 week 3 days)
We had Julieanne and Allan look after our house and numerous pets ranging from our dogs to a yabby tank and a blue tongue lizard for 16 days whilst we were on Holliday. Our return found everything in great order and our dogs unconcerned by our arrival { I think they had too good of a time whilst we were away} I would not hesitate to have them house sit again for us or to recommend them for any house sitting positions they apply for.
 
MARK (Bowen QLD, Jun 2019 - 2 weeks 2 days)
Thanks for that Mark
Today we have returned from Japan, and Alan and Julieanne have cared for our home and pets for 9 days. They are a delightful couple, so warm and friendly and we felt very confident leaving them to care for our property. They sleep in their own van, but also left our home spotless, and even prepared lunch for us on our return which was so appreciated after an all night flight. We would thoroughly recommend them to anyone requiring housesitting help, they just need space to park their big rig, ... MORE
 
LYNDA (Kingaroy QLD, Apr 2019 - 1 week 2 days)
Thanks for you kind words Lynda. It was a pleasure staying at your place, made me feel like I was back on our old property. Loved it. Julieanne
My husband and I had the pleasure of having Julieanne and Allan house sit for us in April 2019 for 3 weeks. Julieanne and Allan were a delight from the start. They are very easy going and helpful. They are great communicators and really cared for our house and animals. Especially our sometimes not so easy dog. We were able to relax, knowing everything was looked after and the animals had their normal routines, but with different people taking care of them. I would highly recommend ... MORE

Thanks Tania.

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
