Liz and Myles
72, Retired
80, Retired
We are a fully-retired mature couple who have lived in the Warrnambool area for many years.
We have so enjoyed our house-sitting adventures so far. We started back-to-back house-sitting in May 2016 and now, in May 2024 have completed our 93rd house-sit. We have made many new friends, cared for some amazing animals, learned many new skills in pet care and stayed in places we never knew about.
We are very house/garden- proud. We would treat your house as our own and leave it as we found it.
We are non- smokers.
We have no pets of our own but love animals. Myles is a retired farmer, bus driver, cleaner and transport company owner and I am a retired teacher who has grown up with and cared for cats, dogs, fish, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, ponies, stick insects, hermit crabs, lizards, etc. Therefore, we would treat you precious pets with love, understanding and kindness.
We both have Police Checks.
So far we have happy owners who would be happy to vouch for us. We can attach a copy of all our reviews if requested.
At this stage, we can only do housesits of up to 14 days.
We contact owners on a daily basis by email, WhatsAp, Messages or Skype to put their minds at rest about the security and happiness of their pets.
We would be delighted to speak to you further if you would consider us in looking after your home and treasured pets.
Thanking you.

Liz and Myles are the most amazing people you could ask for to look after your home. We have 2 dogs, hundreds of plants and chooks which were all extremely well taken care of whilst we were away. They sent us daily updates with photo's and videos of our fur babies. Liz and Myles had to deal with some trying issues while we were away, one being a fox getting into our chicken coop and killing 6 of our chooks and another was facing a major storm with a terrified Max cowering under the couch.

Liz and Myles had to deal with some trying issues while we were away, one being a fox getting into our chicken coop and killing 6 of our chooks and another was facing a major storm with a terrified Max cowering under the couch. Very distressing for them but they were amazing in how they handled these situations. I cannot recommend them highly enough and hope they will sit for us again in the future. Thank you so much Liz and Myles for the wonderful job you did looking after our home and pets.

Liz and Myles were the best Housesitters ever. We booked them early and they drive over to meet us months before we were due to leave to make sure we were all comfortable with the arrangements.
Our usually low maintenance dog became very unwell a few days into our trip and we could not have been happier with the care and live they gave him while he recovered, going above and beyond in his care.

They took him to all his vet visits and tended to his medical care when he came home. They were constantly in touch with us during this time to both keep us updated and involved in his care. We were very grateful.
In addition to looking after our pets we also employed them to look after our Bed and Breakfast and from the reviews we received while they were here we know this was 5 star.
KATRINA (Armstrong VIC, Jun 2021 - 8 weeks)
Liz & Myles were amazing! It was so nice to be able to relax on holiday and not have to worry about our dogs at home as they were in great care. The daily updates were much appreciated. The house was left cleaner than before we left and they even helped us organise sitters for our 2nd week of holiday due to covid related plan changes. Lovely couple and very reliable and will definitely welcome them to our home again anytime. Thanks Liz & Myles!

LOUISE (Mortlake VIC, Jun 2021 - 1 week)
We are so pleased you were happy with our care of your home and 5 pups. Thanks for your kind words.
We would highly recommend Liz and Myles as your next housesit, we have never done this before and were very pleased. We instantly knew they were the perfect choice for us, 10 out of 10
Our house and garden were immaculate on return and we would highly recommend these lovely people. Thanks Liz and Myles. From john and Glenys Kleehammer
JOHN (Maffra VIC, Feb 2021 - 10 weeks)
Oh such kind words. We loved your home and it was such a pleasure looking after it. Thanks again. Liz and Myles.
If we could give Liz and Myles a 6 star review we would. They are without doubt the best housesitters we have ever met. They looked after our home and gardens so well, and Gus, our slightly shy tabby cat, clearly decided Liz and Myles were his next best friends. How wonderful to have such fantastic sitters. Thankyou so much for everything. And we will be coming to you in the future and hope you will be available. Happy sitting!!
FRED (Pyalong VIC, Dec 2020 - 2 weeks 3 days)
Liz and Myles excelled. Changed plans to suit ours. Animals obviously well cared for. House spotless. Great daily communication. Would definitely ask them to help again.
JIM (Bendigo Forward VIC, Aug 2020 - 1 week)
Wow. Could not have had any more perfect house sitters. Considerate guests and their care and attention was second to none. If you are lucky enough to have this couple house sit for you then consider yourselves blessed.
BROOKE AND BEN (Baranduda VIC, Feb 2020 - 9 days)
Such kind words. Thankyou guys. Hope we can help you out again at some stage.
Absolutely fantastic housesitters! Liz and Myles treated our home and dog Spike as if it was their own. The house and gardens were in great condition when we returned from 2.5 weeks away. I felt as though I'd met them both before and felt very at ease leaving my precious dog, Spike in their care. Liz and Myles kept in daily contact with pictures of Spike ensuring all was well. I do hope we can have them both stay again in the future. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED :-)
KATE (Keilor VIC, Jan 2020 - 2.5 weeks)
So glad you were happy with us Kate. We really enjoyed our time with Spike.
Liz and miles are great house sitters , while over in Bali for a period of time they sent pics and communicate nearly every day to tell us how the fur babies are going. The house was nice and clean when we arrived home at midnight and they stayed till the next morning so I babies weren't left out in the cold . .....highly recommend
Feel free to contact us
MELINDA AND ADDAM (Ballarat VIC, Aug 2019 - 3 and a half weeks)
Liz and Myles were fantastic. I was lucky enough to meet them a few weeks prior to my departure and knew instantly that they were just right.
They communicated regularly and immediately managed vet visits when one of my dogs became ill. I was kept up to date with details and progress and thankfully all ended well.
Upon my return my house, garden and animals were all so well cared for that I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, capable and caring couple to mind their home ...

We loved having Liz & Myles as house-sitters in March 2019. They were very house proud & looked after our "babies" (4 doggies & wild Magpies) so well. Our babies took to both of them on the first meeting & made themselves at home on their laps (not usual)!
As we had very detailed & specific instructions for our babies - it was reassuring to leave them in Liz & Myles care. As our precious babies are extremely spoiled & we always want them to have all the care that can be bestowed on them.

Along with the pets, the house, garden & lawns were will cared for beautifully - we could not have wished for better house-sitters.
Liz & Myles are exceptional house-sitters & we would love to have them back in the future. We wish them well for their travels & look forward to meeting them again.
Kind regards,

DIANNE & JON (BENALLA VIC, Mar 2019 - 2 weeks 5 days)
How lucky was I to have Liz and Martin as house sitters. Their wonderful care of the house and garden and especially the loving care of Billy the Beagle was amazing. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for an efficient and caring couple to care for their home whilst away. I am hoping that they maybe available on my next trip away
Thanks heaps Liz and Martin
ROBYN (Strathfieldsaye VIC, Jan 2019 - 6 days)
Thanks for a great review, Robyn.
Myles has never been called 'Martin' before....haha.
We were so happy when Liz and Myles offered to house/babysit for us. We've never known the aloof Hugo to like a babysitter so much, we were so pleased to see the photos of Hugo interacting with Liz and Myles. The house was immaculate when we got home and there was a wonderful meal on the table. As usual the garden and yard was thriving. We had a few issues with our street during their stay but nothing fazed Liz and Myles. Thank you again for allowing us to have an awesome holiday, ;-)
SHARON & COLIN (Denman NSW, Nov 2018 - 1 week 6 days - 1 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
Liz and Myles stayed at out home recently for a short stay, and we were absolutely delighted. Communication before and during the sit was fantastic. Jed, our fur baby loved them and our home was treated with respect at all times. I would not hesitate in recommending Liz and Myles and would welcome them back any time. thank you.
JAMES & ELIZABETH (Coffs Harbour NSW, Nov 2018 - 4 days)
Liz and Myles were the most amazing house sitters. From the communication prior to the sit to the day they arrived was fantastic. Liz kept us updated on all the animals daily with messages and photos as well as updates on the weather as we got hit with a lot of rain whilst we were on holidays. They did an absolutely perfect job with looking after our animals and our property. We arrived home to find our animals very relaxed but happy to see us.

We also arrived home to a beautifully clean home and dinner and desert made for us which the 4 of us enjoyed together. We were very sad to see our newly made friends leave our place and our dogs were a little put out too which was lovely to see. Cannot recommend Liz and Myles enough, We are planning another trip and we are hoping they can sit for us again
DONNA (Loch Lomond QLD, Oct 2018 - 1 week 4 days)
Liz and Myles are professional and organised house sitters who provided the best care and company for our two dogs when they were here. They are a friendly couple and ensure they have all the information they needed regarding looking after the house, garden and the girls, and we were very happy in all regards with their stay here.We can highly recommend them and hope they can return for future housesits. Thank you Liz and Myles.
JAN AND DEB (Bribie Island QLD, Sep 2018 - 2 weeks 2 days)
Like and Myles very kindly looked after, and I must say with great love, our home and gorgeous pets. Our home was beautifully kept and our pot plants and garden also kept with care, in fact, Myles has shamed me into sweeping outside every day and getting those leaves out behind the pot plants , the difference is quite astounding.

ORLENA (Walmer VIC, Mar 2018 - approx 10 days)
Loved having Liz and Miles sit for us. They are lovely, friendly people who cared for our home and fur babies exceptionally well. Bindi and Misty loved them. A lovely meal was prepared for us when we arrived home and the house was clean and tidy and plants watered. I would love to have Liz and Miles sit for us again.
KAY AND BRENTON (Renmark West SA, Mar 2018 - 1 week 5 days)
We were so blessed to make this connection. Liz and Miles were the most fantastic housesitters. From their organisation and contacts prior to their arrival until their final farewell, they have housesitting totally organised.

I hope they are available for our next Housesitter as they treated our home with so much respect and care. If you are looking for someone do not go past this fabulous couple. We feel we have made new friends.
JENNI (Kempsey NSW, Jan 2018 - 2 weeks)
Liz and Myles are wonderful housesitters and pet carers. They were so keen and eager to know about everything to do with our home and our spoilt cat Hugo. They knew how to approach him and gave him space so that he could get to know them on his terms. This is such an important attribute in a carer. Liz and Myles looked after everything as if it was their own; our home was immaculate on our return. They also kept us up to date on Hugo's life even if was just sleeping and eating!

We spent two evenings together both before and after our trip and it was thoroughly enjoyable to get to know our lovely, friendly housesitters.

Returning home our house was just as we left it, very neat and tidy both inside and outside (lawns were mowed regularly). Liz and Myles were so flexible and more than happy to accommodate our routines and the way we live and look after our house and went above and beyond.
Liz and Myles are both very professional with their housesitting and are very reliable and great with communication. It was so very settling knowing our home and pets were in such good hands whilst we were away. Chris and I have no hesitations in recommending Liz and Myles for those considering future housesitters. I am happy to provide a verbal reference too if you would like to speak to me, please request my personal number from Liz. Many thanks!
ALANA (Boambee East NSW, Oct 2017 - 3 weeks)
I could not recommend Liz and Myles more highly, they were extremely professional in their approach to housesitting. The communication leading up to and during the house sit was fantastic, and they looked after our home and animals as if they were their own. We really hope they are free to come back next time we go away! I am more than happy to be contacted if needed for a phone reference also.
ANGIE (Lennox Head NSW, Oct 2017 - 1 week 6 days)
Liz and Myles are lovely and we are so glad they chose to housesit for us....The animals were so content when we got home I don't think they realised we had left...Liz and Myles thoroughly enjoyed staying even though half our house was being renovated...after meeting them we knew we could go away without worrying...Thank you so much and we hope you will be back through soon for another visit or sit...we highly recommend them!!!
JENNY (Cawongla NSW, Sep 2017 - 5 days)
Liz and Myles recently looked after our home and 2 dogs when we travelled overseas. On this occasion we had some friends help out for the first 4-weeks, with Liz and Myles taking over for the next 4-weeks prior to us arriving home. Given that we had never met Liz & Myles and they would be handing over with our friends, we were a little nervous. However in the lead up to going away, we spoke with them via Skype and kept in touch via email and social media during the first few weeks.

A trustworthy, honest and caring couple, whom we recommend for house and pet sitting.
LAUREN & MIKE (Flinders Park, Adelaide SA, Apr 2017)
Liz and Miles did an amazingly attentive job of minding our home while we were on holiday. We came home to happy, contented pets, a spotlessly clean home and our garden in terrific condition. Liz kept us updated on our pets while we were away and could not have been more caring of our aging beagle. We would highly recommend them to anyone seeking a reliable house sitter as they took excellent care of all we had asked of them and more.

To whom it may concern!
Liz and Myles looked after our home and pets for two weeks in February this year.
We were very worried about leaving our two precious dogs with strangers but we needn't have.
We returned home to our healthy and happy dogs. Our vegetable garden was thriving and they even replaced our flowers.
We knew when we met them that they would love our dogs like their own and they did. You just get a feeling.
I would be happy to recommend them. They are responsible and kind. ... MORETo whom it may concern!

TRACEY (Edithvale VIC, Feb 2017 - 2 weeks)
Liz and Myles looked after our house, dogs and ponies this weekend. They were kind enough to visit beforehand and get an idea of what was needed. They arrived promptly as arranged and fulfilled all our needs. There were an extra couple of jobs to do with the ponies that came up unexpectedly and they took care of those as well. They kept in touch with us while we were away and left the house and dogs in perfect condition. Liz and Myles are highly recommended by me as housesitters.

Liz and Myles are fantastic house sitters. The house was very clean when we returned and the two cats were contented. The lawn had also been mowed and the garden weeded.

After spending a wonderful week in Bali I am very pleased to have come home to a stunningly clean and well kept home.

With updates daily via social media we were made to feel very confident that our beloved dog was being given adequate care. I was delighted to arrive home to find the house significantly cleaner than when we left, Liz and Myles left our home to perfection. Along with looking after the house, Myles and Liz had the dear task of caring for our 9 year old toy poodle that has diabetes. They were great as they were able to manage their plans around his daily needs. Twice a day they had to inject him with insulin. What a huge commitment they made for us and him. Having never performed injections before these two amazing people breezed through it. If it was not for Liz and Myles’s love, respectful attitude and professionalism our dog would not have gotten the care required which could have seriously had an impact on his health.
We would not have been able to have a holiday break without their help. Along with being very nice people, Liz and Myles were a great companion to our dog while we were away.This couple really adapted to our lifestyle for their house sit in our home, they just fit in perfectly, nothing was any trouble. We even arrived home to gorgeous presents, Christmas treats and a beautiful card thanking us for their stay in our home. We can’t THANK YOU enough Liz and Myles.
I would highly recommend them for house sitting.
MICHELE (South Yarra, Melbourne, Dec 2015)
Liz and Myles were fantastic! They went above and beyond. Not only caring for our pets but went out of their way to replace a broken heat lamp(broken before they got here). I think the house was cleaner when we got home than when we left. Liz was in contact when needed and made us feel comfortable that our pets and house were in good hands. I cant say thank-you enough

With a house sitter looking after your pets, house and garden - you can really relax. Happy days.
