Mel Somerville

56, Nurse

I am a teacher from Sydney who also spends time at our cabin in Gloucester. I recently had a contract teaching job in Cairns where we house sat for 6 months and loved it.
Sometimes I travel with a teacher friend if my husband is on fishing trips. We are pet owners who have ferrets in Sydney, We truly love animals and taking dogs on daily walks. You can trust us to be responsible. We are experienced with administering medications and your place will be left clean and tidy and how we found it.

Mel and Craig did a wonderful job of looking after my fur baby while I was away recently. I came home to a well adjusted young lad and a spotless home. I received frequent updates while I was away to keep me informed. on anything that might e issues. Mel and Craig communicated well and were caring individuals. This is the reason I use this service. Thank you Mel and Craig!

Craig and Mel were great. Left the house tidy and bed stripped and in the laundry for us. Looked after a puppy and dog and kept an eye on our birds for us. Would recommend.

Mel and Craig were very friendly and very keen to take care of our dog Sophie. They gave us regular updates to let us know that Sophie was happy while we were away. It would be great for next time if they would clean the house a little bit more thoroughly before vacating and try to put things back where they were if moved. Overall they made us feel like house and our dog were well looked after.

I came home to two very happy and content pets. The regular updates were great and kept my mind at ease while I was away. I came home to a lovely clean house too. I highly recommend Mel and Craig, and would happily have them stay again.

Couldn't ask for better house sitters. Our dogs looked very happy and healthy when we got home. And the house and gardens were spotless. Would highly recommend Mel and Craig to anyone in the future.

I was extremely happy with Mel and Craig. I came home to a very clean and tidy house and a very happy cat. They are more than welcome to house sit for me again in the future.

Great to come home to a happy dog, clean house and a nice bottle of wine. Mel & Craig spoiled Izzi with walks, pats and cuddles and looked after my house as their home for the last three weeks. Recommend Mel & Craig for future house and pet sits.
