We're both retired, travel extensively in our caravan, which is also our home. We both have over 20yrs of involvement with the CFA, Nev is a qualified mechanic & truck driver, I worked in childcare for 30yrs.
We have been house sitting for over 7yrs which has involved caring for a variety of animals from dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, chickens, sheep, alpaca's, cattle, pig's, donkeys & horses we have also done quite a number of farm sits. We've also had a huge variety of our own pets, over the years, dogs, cat, budgies, caneries, ducks, guinea pigs, fish, chickens, rabbits & ferrits. We treat your pets with the utmost care & respect & treat them as if they are our own. We like to communicate with you while your away with regular updates & photos to let you know that all is going well & you will then feel at ease. We're non smoking, happy to do light gardening, mowing & your home will be treated with the utmost care & respect & will be left clean & tidy.
We only require space for our 21 ft van.
We do have futher references available

This was my first experience with Aussie House Sitters and I was extremely happy with the stay. Trish and Nev were extremely adaptable and skillful in coping with the unexpected and caring for Tilly's needs. I highly recommend them as they showed such consideration and kindness towards both me and Tilly.
 
ANTHEA (Barwon Heads VIC, Apr 2023 - 2 weeks 6 days)
We had Trish & Nev for a 2 week sit. Jack our kelpie was extremely well looked after as were our farm animals. House spotless. Came home to soup and scones which were appreciated. Highly recommend Trish & Nev as house sitters.
 
JOHN (BYADUK VIC, Oct 2022 - 2 weeks.)
Trish & Nev came with exemplary references and from our perspective, richly deserved. We are fastidious about our labs(2) in the feed and exercise regime and came home to happy welcoming dogs . Our 1 year old puppy took a liking to our chooks (4) and they arranged a barricade to protect them. The house was clean and neat and everything in order. We have no hesitation in recommending them and hope that they will consider sitting for us again.
 
DAVID (Indented Head VIC, Dec 2021 - 18 days)
No rating The first time we arranged a house sit with Trish and Nev they had some car problems and then we had some Covid problems but throughout it all Trish and Nev kept us up to date with what was happening so that we could make good decisions about our changes in plan. Trish and Nev have now done two sits for us now managing our menagerie through lambing, bottle feeding a lamb, doing injections for a sick ewe and keeping the garden and house perfectly. They are very well organised and great ... MORE
ROSS AND JENNIE (Lockwood VIC, Nov 2021 - 21 days in total)
Trish & Nev recently sat for us. They are a delightful couple and were very kind & caring sitters for our spoilt dogs. They managed some unexpected extras as we had baby chicks & ducklings. It was no bother for them & everything was well looked after. They came to meet us beforehand so our dogs/cat could be introduced, which was really appreciated.The cottage where Trish & Nev stayed was left very clean & tidy. We came home to some happy pets and delicious freshly baked brownies. I ... MORE
 
CHRISTINE (Drysdale VIC, Sep 2021 - 1 week 2 days)
Trish and Nev were brilliant! We were able to totally relax while away knowing that our home and all our animals were being taken care of with the greatest of care. Our house was cleaner than when we left, we received text messages with photos of our animals who were all cared for and happy, our garden was maintained and we had home cooked date loaf to enjoy when we arrived home. We highly recommend Trish and Nev and will certainly keep in touch with them for more sits.
 
DI (Murgheboluc VIC, Apr 2021 - 4 days)
We had Trish and New stay at our home for 3 weeks over summer. They had care of our two little rabbits and they did a wonderful job. They were easy to communicate with, respected our wishes, and we came home to beautifully clean house and well kept yard. Not to mention a plate of muffins! Would highly recommend and would quickly have them back.
 
CLINTON (Armstrong Creek VIC, Jan 2021 - 3 weeks)
We booked Trish and Nev for the above dates for 2020 but in view of the Covid pandemic we had to postpone our travel. We stayed in touch and engaged them 6-8 November. Their care of the house and our animals was great with those extra touches which make all the difference. Spotless house and fresh muffins welcomed us home. Our communications were good and we felt comfortable to leave everything in their hands. I would recommend Trish and Nev as your next house sitters.
 
CYNTHIA (Freshwater Creek VIC, Apr 2020 - 2 weeks 6 days)
Trish & Nev exceeded our expectations as first time users of such a service. They communicated very well before the planned stay, and every appropriate detail was discussed. It was a pleasure to meet them and they looked after our home and pet cat with much personal care. Unfortunately we had to return home early due to the COVID19 issue and they were extremely understanding and flexible with our plans. The house was left in a cleaner state that when we left, and we were greeted with a ... MORE
 
ANDREW (Ocean Grove VIC, Mar 2020 - 1 week)
Trish and Nev were fantastic!! Our house, rabbit, dog and garden were exceptionally well looked after!! Their communication was great and we felt completely at ease throughout our holiday. On our return home the house was sparkling and garden looked better than when we left!
 
CAROLYN (Mount Duneed VIC, Dec 2019 - 4 weeks)
Trish & Nev were completely wonderful housesitters. They looked after our property with two dogs, two cats and 4 fish. Our pets were so happy and content after we got back from 2 weeks on holiday. We received regular messages and photos of how the pets were doing, which we very much appreciated. We would highly recommend Trish & Nev as ideal Housesitters.
 
TASHA (Corio VIC, Nov 2019 - 2 weeks 2 days)
Trish and Nev looked after our home for 10 days and proved to be practical and competent looking after acreage and stock. We felt completely comfortable leaving them in charge of the property and gardens as well as our dog, sheep, alpacas and chickens. It was great to go away knowing everything was being well looked after, and then to return home to find everything 'in order' and milk and bread in the fridge and a home made cake on the bench. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Trish and Nev to ... MORE
 
ELAINE (Drysdale VIC, Nov 2019 - 1 week 3 days)
Trish & Nev are AMAZING! Not only were they trustworthy, kind and caring people, they eased my mind when using house sitters for the first time. Their sit started off on shaky ground as our hot water played up however they were very forgiving and assisted with sorting it out. They sent us photos of the dogs at the beach and in our home and I knew they were being loved and cared for! We returned home late at night to a sparkly clean home, a baked cake, fresh flowers, lawns mowed and two very ... MORE
 
LISA (Ocean Grove VIC, Nov 2019 - 5 days)
This was our first experience with aussiehousesitters, and we were absolutely delighted. We met Trish snd Nev before we left for our holiday, and they immediately put our minds at ease. Trish was fabulous at keeping us up to date with photos and msgs, and we returned to two very happy, contented dogs, and an extremely clean and tidy house and garden. It was a joy to meet Trish and Nev, and highly recommended them for any house sits. We didn't just return home to a very clean and tidy home, we ... MORE

Great communication before the house sit to get to know them and during the house sit with regular updates and photos. This was the first time used Aussie house sits Trish and nev made it a great experience. Thanks again
 
MOIRA (Drysdale VIC, Apr 2019 - 2 weeks)
Trish and Nev were amazing Housesitters, who went out of their way in the care of my pets and my rather demanding garden, They were extremely friendly and caring and nothing was too much trouble. I came home feeling relaxed and was happy to see that they too seemed to have enjoyed their stay. Thanks again Trish and Nev for making everything so easy for me.
