Retired couple with genuine contactable references, We enjoy the simple things in life.
We take pride in always leaving house & pets in better condition than when we arrive, believe in WIN Win situations where everyone is happy, if you are not satisfied we would not be either.
We understand your animals are very important, our Cat used to have her own French window seat & ate whiting & prawns.
Jennifer raised on farm & cared for over 100 pigs & 50 cats, some experience with other stock.Once committing to sit for you we will be 100% locked in for those dates and will not seek or take other offers even if they would suit us more.
BOTH NON SMOKERS Preferred initial contact by message on this site as I try not to have mobile on all the time.
FY I love small acreage, if you have trees and dogs we are really happy.

There is a very good reason why Andrew and Jennifer continually get rave reviews, and that is because they are that good! Two horses, 3 dogs (Jack Russell's) and a large garden setting is a significant undertaking at the best of times! Add a very warm summer and a major veterinary episode with one of the dogs and you have significant additional complexity. All managed with compassion, calm and professionalism, along with excellent communications as required. Came back to very spoiled ... MORE
 
BRETT (Mahogany Creek WA, Feb 2023 - 4 weeks)
Was absolute pleasure looking after your piece of paradise and all the animal family.
I absolutely could not have asked for better housesitters ! From the moment Andrew & Jen stepped through the door, it was evident that they genuinely cared about all my animals. They took the time to get to know each pet's personality and specific needs, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout their stay, they maintained a consistent feeding schedule for my cows ,emus ,dogs ,cats, goats & geese . They tended to the garden and watered all my plants diligently . What truly ...

DANIELLE (Kendenup WA, Jan 2024 - 2 weeks)
Thank you for making our stay so easy and enjoyable. Such a beautiful piece of paradise with the most amazing eclectic group of animals who all are lovely and affectionate . 🙏🏻💜💜💜💜💜💜
Fabulous! If they want to sit for you, do yourself a favour and take them before they go elsewhere (and send me flowers later). My dog has anxiety and does not do well being left alone, this was not an issue to Andrew and Jenny. Frankie fell in love with them. He was in top health upon coming home, so shinny and happy and fit. The house was lovely and clean, the spare room already made up and ready to go. Not even a spoon in the sink. Gardens wonderful, there will be nothing but relaxing to ... MORE
 
RHONDA (Bridgetown WA, Dec 2023 - 4 weeks)
Thanks for your lovely words 🙏🏻💜we had a wonderful time and Truly enjoyed every moment with Frankie 💜 A & J
Andrew and Jen were fab house sitters. We were concerned as first time we've left Benson for a long period of time. But we didn't need to worry as they gained his trust and he loved having them. Would highly recommend and would love to use them again but they're booked out !
 
STEPH (Baldivis WA, Dec 2022)
Thank you for entrusting us with Bensons care.
This was our first experience with getting someone to housesit for us let alone leave our beloved pets for two months and we hit the jackpot when we found Andrew and Jen. They are the loveliest couple who looked after our pets whilst we were away like they were their own and showed so much love and affection to them and best of all we received regular updates with how they were going. We never had any worry about them while we were away and best of all our dog Bowie got to go to her favourite ... MORE
 
LEISHA (Dalyellup WA, Jul 2022 - 2 months)
Thanks you It was an absolute delight to look after Bowie & Red. So glad you had peace of mind to relax and enjoy your holiday with family.
Andrew & Jen have been amazing! I'm sure they looked after our little dog and spoilt him more than we do! There was good communication especially in regard to him with photos and regular updates. He even got a new toy. I was a little nervous about returning home after many weeks away as our home and garden are important to us but there was no need to worry! The house and garden were beautifully maintained and Jen had even left us a lovely meal to eat on our return. We have no hesitation in ... MORE
 
LEE-ANNE (Albany WA, Apr 2022 - 2.5 months)
Thank you both for entrusting us with the care of both your house and Mr. Bingley
Andrew and Jen were fantastic with Cashew. They took care of our home and provided peace of mind for us to want them back (if they had availability)
 
MARK & NICOLE (Atwell WA, Oct 2021 - 2.5 weeks)
Thank you it was an absolute pleasure looking after Cashew
It was so nice to come back to a nice clean home, well cared for gardens and a very happy and content dog. (Chooks and fish too). Place looked better than when we left it a month ago. Communication was great. Couldn't be happier.
 
BEV (Roelands WA, Apr 2021 - 1 month)
Thank you, it was an absolute pleasure looking after Olly at your beautiful and peaceful abode.
Andrew and Jennifer did a fantastic job looking after our 2 dogs and cat and the house, we couldn't be more happy. Andrew is clearly a dog whisperer and both dogs fell for him very quick . He also posted some amazing photos of them, well done!! When we returned from our trip the dogs looked super happy and healthy and the house was cleaner than ever. Thank u so much :-)
 
SABRINA (SINAGRA WA, Mar 2021 - 10 days)
Andrew and Jen looked after my Bruno and Cindi whilst I went on a short holiday and upon my return found my babies extremely relaxed and happy, my back yard mowed, weeded, swept and the house spotless! Andrew and Jen went above and beyond. They are beautiful people and highly recommend them for any house sit. The photos I received of Bruno and Cindi were amazing; Andrew is a fabulous photographer and it is so nice to know my babies were happy with them whilst I was away. On behalf of Bruno, ... MORE
 
CHRISTINA (Coodanup WA, Nov 2020 - 6 Days)
Christina thank you for taking the time to post such a lovely review, we loved looking after Bruno & Cindi, they are both so affectionate and interactive. Hope the stars align and we get to look after them again in the future,
Andrew and Jenny were absolutely fabulous! The house was well looked after and all the animals were much loved. I have zero hesitations in recommending them for a sit.
 
RACHAEL (Barragup WA, Oct 2020 - 5-6 weeks)
Thank you very much Rachael, it was our delight to look after your place and all the lovely pets.
Andrew and Jennifer were wonderful house sitters. We came back to very happy animals and a spotless house. They sent regular pictures and updates. Will recommend to anyone. Will definitely have them again
 
LEXY (Warnbro WA, Sep 2020 - 2 weeks)
Andrew and Jennifer were exceptional house sitters. Meg, our pet Kelpie was cared for thoughtfully and lovingly. Our home was treated with respect. This couple come with our highest recommendation and we would eagerly seek their services in the future.
 
JOHN AND MARILYN (Albany WA, Aug 2020 - 2 months)
Andrew and Jen were excellent house sitters. My dog just adores them, as do I. I came home to an immaculate house and yard. They went above and beyond my expectations and I highly recommended them.
 
VICKY (Embleton WA, Feb 2020 - 1 month)
Thank you Vicki , we adored Simbas company, he was a delight to look after
Andrew & Jen did a fantastic job looking after our 2 Boxer dogs & house. We felt totally at ease going on holiday knowing everything would be looked after. The dogs loved them both & were very well cared for. We got lots of photos while we were away which was really reassuring, meaning we could relax. Got home to a lovely clean house, Jen had sorted out my messy pantry which was a bonus :-) We also got a lovely home cooked meal which was great after travelling all day. We both totally recommend ... MORE
 
MARIANNE (Byford WA, Feb 2020 - 16 days)
Andrew and Jenny were amazing, by far the best house sitters we have ever had. They are down to earth common sense people who clearly love animals. Our two young pups were difficult to say the least, but Andrew and Jenny went over and above to keep them happy. Our geriatric dog with special medical needs and our cat were well cared for. Daily communication was great. The house was absolutely spotless on our return, probably cleaner than it has been in months! I would absolutely recommend Andrew ... MORE
 
AMITY (Kardinya WA, Jan 2020 - 1 week)
Thanks, for the kind words, we truly enjoyed our stay and the company of your fur kids
Andrew and Jennifer house sat for us over the Christmas period and were great in the lead up, during and after their stay. They visited before the sit to ensure the pets were comfortable around them and so that we could "show them the ropes". They cared dearly for our chooks, fish, cat and dog like they were their own. During the housesit they sent us lots of photos and updates of the adventures they were all up to together. We arrived to clean and tidy house with fresh linens and everything as ... MORE
 
ZOE (Stoneville WA, Dec 2019 - 2 and a half weeks)
Outstanding house sitters. My little cat was spoilt beyond belief and is grieving Jenny and Andrew's departure. Many thanks indeed.
 
KERRY (Pinjarra WA, Jan 2019 - 3 weeks)
Thanks Kerry & Brian we had a lovely time at Pinjarra,BJ was such a loveable Puss
Andrew and Jen did a great job in looking after our property (and my husband's precious lawn, groan) and of course our animals here. Our dogs actually went into mourning I think after they left, loitering around the doorway of the studio and looking for their pats! I would highly recommend A&J to any homeowner ... and I would love for their return in the future if we can scrape more money together to have another holiday, sincere thanks to you both. Keep well guys and thanks for the cookies and ... MORE
 
JENNY (Quindalup WA, Dec 2018 - 4 weeks)
Thank you for the kind words, it was truly our pleasure to stay at your piece of paradise and look after your three lovely woofers. Hope to catch up in the future
Andrew and Jen were great, o came back to a very happy spoiled Lucy (my dog that means the world to me) and a spotless clean house! I think Andrew and Jen can be considered animal wisperers! And I explain why.. Lucy is an anxious dog that doesn't enjoy being by herself and don't trust men very much (why should she? Lol) so I was really worried about leaving her for a month to visit my family in Brazil, in fact I've been procrastinating this trip for almost 4 years because of this. Andrew and ... MORE
 
DANIELA (Hamilton Hill WA, Oct 2018)
I have no hesitation in recommending Jenny and Andrew as trusted and responsible house sitters. Their love of animals is obvious and they cared for my dog and 4 cats as if they were their own. My only worry was that my dog may want to leave with them! Unfortunately we had to return from our holiday half way through the expected sit and we have enjoyed having them stay with us as friends for the remainder of the time, They are fabulous cooks and in addition to continuing to help with household ... MORE
 
JANENE (Denmark WA, Sep 2018 - 1 month 2 weeks)
Seriously the best sitters, made everything so easy for us, on our return you could tell my darlings were super contented. The house and garden were tidied than when I left. Already booked Andrew & Jen for our next holiday.
 
SKYE (High Wycombe WA, Aug 2018 - 2 weeks)
Andrew and Jennifer looked after our dog, cat and 2 piggies for three and a half months. We could not have asked for better house sitters. They sent regular updates and photo's of the animals, and looked after the house and property impeccably. They always had their finger on the pulse and saw to any issues that arose. We would always give this wonderfully competent couple first refusal for our house sits in the future. We give them 11 out of 10!
 
CAROLINE (Wandering WA, May 2018)
No rating I am very happy to recommend Andrew and Jennifer as house/menagerie sitters. They were most attentive to the needs of our animals and I was very relieved to have them look after everything on the occasions that I had to be away, knowing I could to depend on them to attend to all that had been asked of them. They left the Cottage/Granny flat in immaculate condition and went out of their way to make sure all animals had food and clean water, even got to mow the lawns when they themselves were ... MORE
WALLY & GLENNIS (East of Brookton WA, Feb 2018 - 1 month 3 weeks)
Thank you Andrew and Jenny, you exceeded our expectations. We were pleasantly surprised by the condition of our property upon our arrival back to our (well fed and exercised dog Baci). We would certainly have no hesitation in recommending you both for any similar role you would wish to undertake, and/or seeking your support should the stars align again in the future.
 
JENNIFER (Pemberton WA, Dec 2017 - 1 month 2 weeks)
Jennifer and Andrew looked after our house and our dog Callie for three months - and were fantastic. On our return our house was immaculate and our dog obviously well cared for. It was much appreciated that they kept in touch throughout our travels. We would highly recommend them as housesitters.
 
DAVID AND ELIZABETH (Albany WA, Sep 2017 - 2 months 2 weeks)
Andrew and Jennifer are a very reliable couple. We are very happy we found them. They are amazing. We left them with one very large garden 5acres, to water and mow. The roses were well tended by Jenny who spent a lot of time deadheading. Our 3 cats and 1 dog were so spoilt and loved. We live on a small farm and Andrew was very handy checking the water troughs and fixing up leaking pipes. No problems were to big for them. When we came home after 7 months away our home was just like we left ... MORE
 
SHARON (Narrikup WA, Feb 2017 - 6 months)
This was our second experience with Aussie House sitters and after a marvelous first experience, and our high expectations were easily met by Andrew and Jenny. Andrew and Jenny stopped by a few months before the actual dates to get acquainted with each other and the house, a reassuring experience. They then joined us a couple of days before our departure, which gave us plenty of time show our daily routine and get into much more detail than we would normally about the house and its ... MORE
 
DIRK (Gnangara WA, Jan 2017 - 1 month 1 week)
No rating many thanks to Andrew and Jenny. A charming couple who looked after both our home and dog recently. They were everything we could asked for in a home/pet sitter ( maybe spoilt the dog tpp much !!! - he was sorry tp see them go ). Highly recommended Barry & Joy
BARRY (Mt Claremont WA, Nov 2016 - 6 days)
No rating Kay and I are both so pleased that Jennifer and Andrew had the care of our dog , the farm and the beaut meals they prepared for us on our departure and return topped off us recommending them to future House Sit enquiries.
KEN (Northcliffe WA, Oct 2016 - 3 weeks)
From the very start of our 4 week trip, we knew that our big hairy dogs and 2 moggies were being loved, cuddled, spoiled rotten! We had daily updates with amazing photos and so we had a totally stress-free holiday knowing our pets were absolutely happy. We also got messages from friends saying that our dogs were having a great time! House, garden, pool all in great shape too. I would recommend Andrew and Jenny 100%. They're pretty booked up so get in early!
 
KAREN (Joondalup, Perth WA, Sep 2016 - 4 weeks)
No rating Andrew and Jenny were the first people we've ever had look after our farm and animals that we haven't known and the first from this site. It's always a worry to leave part of your family with strangers but they were great. They had a myriad of animals to feed and look after including animals they had no experience with (emus) but we were kept up to date with photos and text so my concerns were alleviated. It was wonderful to see my animals especially the dogs enjoying themselves while we were ... MORE
TANIA (North Tammin WA, Sep 2016 - 1 week 4 days)
No rating Great couple that took the time to meet us before the sit and arrived early to confirm details the day we left. Highly recommend them our pets loved them and our place was left spotless. Will be using again
ASHLEY (Vasse WA, May 2016 - 1 week 1 day)
No rating Andrew and Jenny did a great job of looking after our place when we were away for seven weeks overseas. The house was clean and tidy with sparkling windows and the drive and garden had been cleaned up.Tyke our little dog was obviously well cared for and we were not sure if in fact he wanted us back or he wanted them to stay longer. Thanks Andrew and Jenny for your care and efforts . Roger and Thalia
ROGER (Margaret River WA, Apr 2016)
No rating Andrew and Jen did a brilliant job caretaking our farm for three and a half weeks looking after horses, dogs, chooks, garden and cattle. Any issues that arose where simply sorted with little fuss. I would have no hesitation in recommending both Andrew and Jennifer to anybody that requires house or farm sitting.
MICHAEL (Woodanilling WA, Mar 2016 - 3 weeks)
We could not have asked for better house sitters! They cared for our animals so well, so much so that when we returned from our holiday, our animals did not seem too happy to see us :-) Our house was clean as a whistle also. Beautiful people, good hearts, great intentions!!!!!
 
JENNY (Jarrahdale WA, Feb 2016 - 4 days)
No rating Andrew and Jenny house sat for us and our two girls earlier this year, wow what a special couple. We are on a small acreage and are pretty fussy about who we bring into our space. Andrew and Jenny were the perfect choice. The house and land are pretty high maintenance, especially in Perth summers, but they took all of our instructions on board, even our little quirks of how we like things done. When we returned from overseas 5 weeks later, the garden and land looked better, our ... MORE
KAY SYNNOTT (Wungong WA, Jan 2016 - 4 weeks )
No rating Andrew and Jen looked after our 10 acre property and our menagerie - 1 cat, 4 pet sheep, 2 alpacas, 11 chooks and 1 rooster, for 5 weeks. They did a magnificent job and the animals were very well cared for ( Jimmy the cat had been spoiled rotten), the house was clean on our return ( a fresh bread baked for us too) and the garden was well maintained. We had the opportunity to get to know them and they are a truly grounded, earthy couple with excellent values. Thank you Jen and Andrew for ... MORE
FAYE (Yelverton in the Margaret River region WA, Nov 2015 - 1 month 1 week)
No rating 'Andrew and Jen did a great job caring for our home and beloved fur kids. Our animals are all rescues so a couple are still very cautious of people. When we got home from abroad, all our fur family were happy and relaxed as if they had known their sitters forever! We know that Jen and Andrew are avid animal lovers and this means they are gentle, respectful thoughtful with animals. I can't recommend them highly enough'.
SKYE (High Wycombe WA, Nov 2015 - 4 days)
No rating Andrew & Jenny looked after our two very much loved dogs for 8 weeks while we were away, we came home to two happy dogs that were well exercised while we were away. The house was extremely clean to my standard and I am very fussy. There was also a freshly baked loaf of bread for us on our arrival home.
NORMA (Brunswick WA, Aug 2015)
No rating Andrew & Jenny recently completed a 2 month housesit for myself & my partner whilst we travelled overseas. This was the first time we have used a housesitting service and were quite unsure about the whole thing. We are now so glad we made the decision to use a house sitting service & even happier that we chose Andrew & Jenny to look after both our home & dog Ruby. I was extremely anxious about leaving Ruby for 2 months as she never reacts well to me going away. I was very quickly put at ease by ... MORE
RAQUEL (Baldivis, WA, Mar 2015 - 2 months)
Andrew & Jen - wow what can I say. What amazing, wonderful people. They arrived just under a week before we went away so our baby(dog) could get used to them, and we could show them the ropes of the house etc., we had a lovely time with them before we went away for our 3 week holiday. My brother-in-law (who also lives with us) ended up only going away for 2 weeks and they very kindly looked after him for a week before we got back too (he's not too good in the kitchen haha). We spent 3 days ... MORE
 
PAULA (Caversham, WA, Mar 2015)
We had Andrew and Jenny house sit/dog sit for us for a week in January while we were away seeing family interstate. I couldnt recommend them enough. We met them a few weeks before our trip and they are some of the most friendly and genuine people we have met. They told us about why they house sit and some of the people they have house sat for. Which was good as we were basicly leaving a member of our family with them and we wanted to make sure she was well looked after. They arrived for the ... MORE
 
SIMON (Muchea, WA, Jan 2015 - 1 week 1 day)
Andrew and Jen were the first housesitters we have ever had so I was a little nervous handing over responsibility of our property, dog, cat and horses for a month, but I needn't have been. Our animals were all spoiled, happy an healthy on our return, the house spotless which was welcome after a long time away. I always say it is a measure of a person how they cope in a crisis and I can say that Andrew and Jen managed extremely well with a few issues that cropped up. One of the horses decided ... MORE
 
PAULA VAUGHAN (Cookernup, WA, Jan 2015)
No rating This is our first experience with bringing strangers in to care for our most valued belongings. We live on a 5 acre lifestyle property with large home, predominantly ruled by our 3 Kerry Blue Terrier girls. At best the dogs are spoilt rotten and can be a handful for even the best dog person. Andrew and Jenny proved themselves very worthy and their relaxed nature obviously won the girls over. On our return it was very evident the girls had been wonderfully cared for, if not even loved. Our ... MORE
CRAIG & PAMELA (Furnissdale, WA, Nov 2014 - 4 days)
No rating Andrew and Jenny house sat our bush block for two months while we went to WA. They looked after the place exceptionally well, which included our two dogs who I think were better looked after than when we are home. The house was spotless when we came home (much better than the way we had left it and gardens well watered and attended to. I would recommend them to any one who wanted a house sitter.They are a very honest couple and we felt very safe leaving our house in their hands. They also had ... MORE
PAM (The Range, SA, Nov 2014 - 2 months)
No rating Having never used a house sitter before my partner and I were nervous about having people in our home. Adding to that we have two excitable puppies that we were leaving in their care. Turns out, we had nothing to worry about. Andrew and Jen were in frequent contact with us about how things were going and even sent us photos of them out on walks with the puppies. When we arrived home, our house was absolutely spotless (cleaner then when I left it!!). I would not hesitate to have Jen & Andrew ... MORE
