looked after the way we would like

We are a couple living on a small farm in the upper Hunter Valley in NSW
Due to the drought we have sold all our cattle, and sadly our last dog died recently.
We both love animals and have had numerous cats and dogs over the years, and miss them all.
An area of the farm (luckily not all of it!) was burnt in the bush fires and it would be nice with a few weeks away.
We would be happy to help other people to take a break and know that their animals and house will be well looked after.
look forward to hearing from you

Richard & Robyn took amazing care of our two poodles whilst we were away. One of them requires medication that we had trouble with getting him to take it in recent times but was no trouble for Richard & Robyn who came up with a clever solution to the problem. From meeting them prior to us leaving, we were confident and reassured our fur children would be well looked after. Our home was also in ship shape as when we left it. Richard and Robyn are very widely experienced and interesting ... MORE
 
CHERYL (Windella NSW, Oct 2020 - 2 days)
We loved looking after the two poodles they were lovely, friendly and obedient, The instructions and communications left by Cheryl and Peter were very clear and we met before the sit to be introduced to the dogs, a great idea. Cheryl and Peter are fantastic couple. The very comfortable house ... MORE
Richard and Robin were wonderful cat sitters. Great communication and when we had crossed wires at the beginning of the stay, they promptly picked up their bits and headed over to ours straight away. They sent regular updates on the cats (who were up to mischief for them and they were nothing but amazing with them) and left the house in a clean and tidy state when leaving. We dont be happy to book them again in the future.
 
LAURA (Warriewood NSW, Mar 2024 - 4 nights)
We could not have been happier with Robin and Richard. They took excellent care of our furry kids and chookies. Arriving a day before we left we were able to familiarise them with our home. We received regular updates and they went beyond the call of duty, leaving our home better organised and tidy than when they arrived. Richard and Robin are absolute gems.
 
BOB (EDITH CREEK TAS, Feb 2023 - 1 week 4 days)
We were lucky to have Richard and Robin look after our very busy animal family and house while we were away. Brilliant communication and we came back to happy animals and spotless clean house. Such lovely people as well. Would welcome them back to our home any time for sitting as we could really relax and enjoy our time away knowing everything was OK. Thanks Richard and Robin
 
ALEX (Hermit Park QLD, Jun 2022 - 1 week 1 day)
Richard and Robin were ideal housesitters, very friendly and trustworthy, and went beyond expectations with a few extra touches that we really appreciated. They helped make me feel comfortable by meeting our pets beforehand. They provided regular updates on how our cat and dog were going during their stay, and left the house clean and tidy. Highly recommended!
 
CAROLINE (Belconnen ACT, Apr 2022 - 1 week)
Richard and Robin did an amazing job of looking after our place. Even in very unusual circumstances of being flooded in! They coped with everything really well and I'd highly recommend them. Excellent company and lovely people too. I hope we have the chance to get them back again and look forward to staying in touch with them. Thanks again!
 
LOUISA (Laguna NSW, Feb 2022 - 14 days)
No rating First thing I would like to say is I was very impressed with the way they both came before the stay to meet my pets it was a great comfort to go away knowing my pets were in good hands I would not hesitate in having them looking after my fur and feathered babies again my house was left very tidy they were a pleasure to have around
FIONA (Narara NSW, Apr 2021 - 3 days)
Robin and Richard are a very relaxed couple who have many interesting stories to share at the dinner table. They made us feel at ease knowing we were leaving our pets in capable hands and their communication was excellent. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and would gladly have them back at our house in the future.
 
BRITTANY (Winmalee NSW, Feb 2021 - 3 days)
We couldn't have been happier leaving our dog and house in the fabulous care of Richard and Robyn. For us the most important thing is to find a housesitter who will care for our dog while we're away (rather than the house) and we couldn't have got luckier with Richard and Robyn. From our first meeting they were friendly and easy going, and most importantly our dog warmed to them both straight away. Our dog has a few behavioural quirks but we knew straight away that she was in very loving, ... MORE

Richard and Robin are a lovely couple who looked after our house, garden and pets fabulously well. They are great communicators and kept us updated as to their arrival as well as during their stay regarding to the antics of the pets! The house was left spotlessly clean and tidy. This was our first time using a house sitter and we were more than impressed and would not hesitate doing it again. Thanks Richard and Robin.
 
PETER (PARKESBOURNE NSW, Oct 2020 - 5 days)
Richard and Robyn did a fantastic job house sitting and talking care of our pets (dog, cat and fish). While our fur baby was very pleased to see us it seemed that he was well loved by his foster parents. Communication with them was excellent and they sent messages to us when we were away just to let us know how things were going. The house was exceptionally clean and tidy on our return. Thank you for taking care of everything.
 
KAREN (Beacon Hill NSW, Jul 2020 - 1 week 2 days)
Richard and Robin are reliable, trustworthy and highly recommended as housesitters. They understood our two kelpies and looked after them beautifully. Our house was spotless when we returned and the garden had been looked after very well. They are experienced, intelligent and interesting people.
