Dependable and local

36, Research

Hello!

My name is Mindy and I'm a responsible, active and non-smoking housesitter committed to keeping your pets content and your home in excellent condition while you're out of town.

Experience:
Upon returning to Australia after living abroad, I housesat with my dear friend Belinda for 2 years before the Covid pandemic hit and we were forced to rent. Now that things have settled down, I'm excited to return to housesitting and enjoy some much-needed animal companionship!


A little about me:
I completed my Honours in Behavioural Science (Psychology) in late 2021 and am currently working as a research assistant and tutor at QUT, Kelvin Grove. I'm a self-proclaimed homebody who enjoys the quieter things in life. I like keeping fit with friends, journaling at cafes, curling up with a book and dabbling in crafts and design.

I also love being outdoors and will gladly take your pup for regular walks, and tend to your garden as required. I also have my own car and enjoy taking my new furry friends on outings.


Looking for:
I am looking to house sit homes primarily in Brisbane to remain close to work. I am lucky to have some flexibility when it comes to working from home if your pets need extra companionship. Please note though, my ability to WFH does depend on the projects I'm currently involved in.

While I will mostly be sitting on my own as Belinda has now become a homeowner(!), should your pets require extra assistance, I may be able call upon her or our mutual friend and Aussie House Sitter Denise (when available) for a helping hand.


I see house sitting as a great privilege. Your trust is important, and I want to assure you that your home will be treated with care and respect, and your pets as if they were my own. I also provide daily updates with photos/videos to help put your mind at ease so you can fully enjoy your time away.

Police check provided upon request and if you would like any more information please don't hesitate to ask.

Thank you kindly and I hope to hear from you!

Mindy was absolutely amazing. We felt completely at ease with her from the moment we met her. We received daily updates from her, and if she was ever worried about anything to do with the pets she let us know right away. It was so nice to be able to enjoy our break and not feel worried about anything on the home front. We came home to a nice clean house and 2 very well looked after and happy fur babies. 10/10 would have her sit for us again. Thanks again for everything Mindy. We ... MORE
 
JESSICA (Hamilton QLD, Jan 2024 - 6 nights)
We were so lucky to have Mindy come and look after our home and two retrievers, from the moment we met Mindy we felt so comfortable and knew we could trust her. Mindy was an amazing sitter, her communication was excellent, our dogs absolutely loved the many cuddles they were given, time spent playing in the backyard and the house was exactly as we left it. We could not recommend Mindy more and will definitely be looking to book with her when we are away for our next trip (if we are ... MORE
 
NINA (Oxley QLD, Jan 2024 - 2 nights)
I couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter than Mindy. She genuinely enjoyed looking after my dog, with a solid walk every day and lots of company for her. I got daily updates sent to me, and the house was spotless when I got home. My Labrador with a never-ending appetite did not change her weight over the 3 weeks which is an achievement in itself (previously my dog has put on the kilos after just a weekend away!), so Mindy really did give her great care. Thanks Mindy!
 
CLARE (Geebung QLD, Sep 2023 - 3 weeks)
Look no further. Mindy is gold. We can not speak highly enough on all aspects of our house and Daisy dog sit. Mindy went above and beyond to care for our rescue dog and look after our home. Will definitely book her again if possible. 10/10 👍🏾
 
CHANTELLE (East Brisbane QLD, Jun 2023 - 4 weeks)
Mindy was a fabulous house-sitter. She is so friendly and has excellent communication. She promptly replied to every message I sent whether email or text. She sent me a little picture of my cats every day and a brief message to tell me all was well. Mindy looked after my two cats very well and took extra care ensuring all their needs were met including pats. My unit was sparkling clean when I returned home with all sheets/towels washed and lined up. The floors had been swept and ... MORE
 
MARY (Taringa QLD, Mar 2023 - 5 days)
We are very grateful for Mindy's help. She took excellent care of our lovely, needy and playful Milla - our Jack Russel x. Walks, lots of cuddles and pats, plays with water, and more cuddles and pats, etc. Yes, Milla is a perfect lap dog and I am sure Milla and Mindy were a great companion to each other. Mindy is a reliable, trustworthy, and caring person who provided us peace of mind during our trip. Great communication since the first contact, showing respect and disposition to accommodate ...

Mindy was incredible and I can see how she books out so far in advance. You'll be lucky to have her care for your home and furbabies.
 
BROGEY (BARDON QLD, Feb 2023 - 3 nights)
Mindy and Belinda looked after our dog as if it was there own. They sent us photos and kept us informed of any incidents. The house was clean when we arrived home. Mindy arrived to collect the keys however due to prior commitments at the time of our arrival home we did not see the girls on our return unfortunately. Thank you girls great job.
 
JANETTE (Mitchelton QLD, May 2019 - 1 month 2 weeks)
We love to receive news about our pets when we travel. Belinda and Mindy kept us continually updated and it was obvious how well cared for our animals were. The pot plants were watered and the house clean and tidy and the beds ready for us - a great welcome home. We will certainly ask Belinda and Mindy to house sit again.
 
KATHY (Holland Park West QLD, Apr 2019 - 2 weeks 3 days)
A huge thank you to Belinda and Mindy for the amazing job they did house sitting my unit and very spoilt cat. Belinda and Mindy were a pleasure to deal with and were genuinely lovely people. I received regular updates throughout my time away with regular photos of my cat. My normally timid cat was healthy and happy when I got home. Also ... upon my return home, my unit was immaculate. Cleaner than when I left! I have every confidence that anyone having Belinda and Mindy house sit will ... MORE

SHARON (Chapel Hill QLD, Feb 2019 - 1 week)
Mindy and Belinda took exceptional care of our greyhound Barry, in fact I don't think he was aware we were even away :) and we were appreciative of the photos and communication also. We came home to a spotless home and every detail had been taken care of which I was extremely grateful. Thankyou ladies. I would highly recommend Mindy and Belinda to house sit.
 
CHRIS (Graceville QLD, Nov 2018 - 1 week 2 days)
No rating Mindy and Belinda were fantastic sitters. Our two dogs were so well looked after, taken for regular adventures and we were provided with weekly updates on how they were doing - including some really great photos! We returned to a clean house with all the linen washed, nothing was out of place or damaged. Highly recommend and would ask them to sit again!
CLAIRE (Nundah QLD, May 2018 - 3 weeks)
No rating Would love to have Melinda & Belinda look after our bog Angel again. I knew the day you met Angel and I that she was safe caring hands. You sat on the floor with her and she laid with you. Thank you again. Darryl
