A big thank you to Russell and Lyn for taking care of our home and 2 fur babies whilst we were away. It was so nice coming back to an immaculate home and garden and the regular updates and photos of our dogs were really appreciated!
 
RAEGAN (Alberton SA, Mar 2024 - 1 week 6 nights)
Russell & Lyn generously looked after our home, two chickens & our very energetic lab X for three weeks and we are so grateful to them. They endured the worst a Canterbury winter can throw at you, torrential rain, near flooding & hight winds, all the while continuing to walk the dog & send us videos & photos of their adventures. Everything was so clean & tidy when we got home, with the fridge stocked with food so no shopping was required. As this was our first time using kiwi house sitters, ... MORE
 
CAROLINE (Christchurch South Island, Jul 2023 - Three weeks) From Kiwi House Sitters
Thanks Caroline. It was our pleasure. Most enjoyable Housesit.
Russell and Lyn were absolutely amazing whilst we were away on holiday, We had no worries and they communicated well with us. The house was in immaculate condition when we arrived home, which we were very appreciative of after our long travels. All our animals were in excellent condition - they had clearly been looked after as if they were their own. In addition to this, they had kindly cooked us a lovely couple of meals so that we didn't have to worry about cooking a few meals when we ... MORE
 
CALLUM (lumsden South Island, Jun 2023 - 30 days) From Kiwi House Sitters
Thanks very much. Top review. We appreciated the opportunity and your confidence in us. Russell
Lyn and Russ are the best Housesitters we have ever had. They looked after our house, garden, plants and especially our dog extremely well. We are still enjoying all the thoughtful things they did for us. Communication was excellent and flexibility to boot. We couldn't recommend them highly enough. Thanks again!!
 
ELLIOT (Buderim QLD, Mar 2022 - 3.5 weeks)
Hi Elliot & Monica Thank you for your great review. Warm Regards Lyn & Russ
Russell and Lyn were excellent housesitters. Communication was good. They were well organised, happy to be a little flexible as our plans changed and the house was left spotless.
 
TRISH (Northgate QLD, Dec 2021 - 1 week 1 day)
Russell and Lyn looked after our house and dog for just over two weeks. They were very open and honest with their dates and times. We have a 8mnth old kelpie which kept them on their toes but she loved them! The house was beautiful when we came home, clean house and clean sheets. We were very appreciative to have such good care of the house and dog whilst away. Took the worry away completely Would absolutely have them again!
 
ASH (East Mackay QLD, Aug 2021 - 2 wks)
Hi Ash Thank you. We very much appreciated you sharing your lovely home with us. Very relaxing. Such a great position being so close to town, beach & parks. Chilli such a good natured dog; always energetic & looking to play. Give us a call if you ever in our area. Warm Regards Lyn & Russ
Lyn and Russell were everything we wanted after having experienced a particularly horrific housesit previously. Having had numerous house sitters over the years, it was difficult to find people who were good both in the house, with the animals and in the garden. Lyn and Russell did this in spades. On our arrival home, we found everything to be in an immaculate condition. Communication was excellent prior to, during, and after their stay. Both Lyn and Russell are very personable and were ...

DONALD AND KERRY (Swanfels QLD, Apr 2020 - 4 weeks)
My partner and I recently had Russell and Lyn housesit for us for 3 weeks to care for our cat and our garden. We were really impressed with communication with Russell and Lyn before the house sit commenced as they were obliging with providing references and police checks as well as scheduling when to arrive at our home. Russell and Lyn are both lovely and intelligent people who really took great care of our home. We were so happy to come back to a beautifully clean home, a very happy and ... MORE
 
SIMONE (Mount Isa QLD, Jun 2019 - 3 weeks)
Russell and Lyn looked after our home for two weeks and did a fantastic job. We returned to a sparkling house, mowed lawns and happy pets. Lyn took the time to come down to meet us and the pets before the house sit so we felt comfortable leaving our house in their care and they were also great communicators. We can recommend Russ and Lyn and will definitely be asking them to house sit again in the future. Thanks Russ and Lyn!
 
GABBY (Broadbeach Waters QLD, Dec 2018 - 1 week 5 days)
Lyn and Russell were great house sitters - very organised and easy to communicated with. We came home to a clean well cared for house and garden and two very happy dogs.
 
BRODIE (Roelands WA, Oct 2018 - 4 weeks)
No rating I can thoroughly recommend Russell and Lyn as House -Sitters. We have been away for 4 weeks. They looked after our two big outside dogs, taking them out, mowed lawns, fixed the clothes line, kept the house tidy, etc, etc. Great communication before the house sit and while we were away. Lyn made us a lovely dinner to welcome us home. Russell and Lynn stayed before and after we left so we got to know them well. A wonderful couple. So grateful that that we had such amazingly caring people to look ... MORE
RUTH (Whakatane North Island, Oct 2017 - 4 weeks) From Kiwi House Sitters
No rating We really appreciated Russell and Lyn's help recently. They took the time to come and meet us before the sit, reliable and prompt communication, cared for our dog well, left freshly laundered sheets and towels and even rejuvenated our bathroom plants! highly recommended!
CAROLINE (Kingaroy QLD, Apr 2017 - 1 week 3 days)
No rating Russell came on his own as I gave very short notice and his wife, Lynne, had to work. I was worried as my dog likes women more but when we arrived home she was happy and relaxed. Russell took excellent care of my dog and the house. It was spotlessly clean when we returned. I would happily have him stay again if he was willing.
