My name is Paul and I am in the fortunate position to be able to work from home on various exploration projects.
I am honest, caring and hard working. With lots of excellent references from previous house sits. I have found house sitting to be a rewarding experience as I have met great people, cared for many wonderful pets and stayed in beautiful homes.
I enjoy looking after both hills, rural and coastal properties and have found house sitting a great way to explore many awesome Western Australian locations.
I will care for your home like it is mine own including looking after the garden/pool or doing minor DIY repairs.
Thank you for reading my profile and I look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards,
Paul

Paul was nothing short of outstanding! Our house was sparkling clean, Paul truly went over and above any expectations we had! We came home to shiny windows & a new front garden.
Paul's communication was phenomenal with daily updates, photos and videos of our pets! Paul also had a great sense of humour which was appreciated! Our overweight doggo was also whipped into shape with daily walks and a cut back on food, we appreciated all the effort Paul put in!

Paul was fantastic, he took care of my parent's house in the Perth Hills like it was his own. Not only was the place spotless when they came back, but he went the extra mile and extended his stay by a week when they had an emergency hospital stay while overseas. We will forever be grateful for this.
I can highly recommend Paul and should we ever need another house sitter he'll be the first I'll ask.
Thank you!

Paul is a great house-sitter who looked after my two cats (adults) and home for a period of over 3 weeks. He kept in touch during the sit with updates on the cats and on the house. I returned to two happy cats and an well looked after home. I would heartily recommend Paul as a house and pet sitter. Thank you Paul!
SENG (Willetton WA, Jan 2024 - 3 weeks)
Paul did a great job.
He had 2 dogs, a large garden and pool to look after.
I would happily and confidently use him again.
TARA (City Beach WA, Dec 2023 - 1 month 1 week)
Paul was an excellent Housesitter . He had great communication and photo updates while I was away. Dogs seemed happy & settled when I returned home.
Paul offered to do jobs around the house which was so very helpful for me.
I would highly recommend Paul and would definitely ask him back if I needed another house sitter
Thanks Paul

I can't recommend Paul highly enough. He kept us updated daily with pictures and stories about how Ted was doing. He looked after our home as though it was his own. We arrived home to a spotless house and a very happy dog. We would not hesitate to have him house sit for us again and would thoroughly recommend him to anyone else.
MARIA (Hilton WA, Oct 2023 - 8 days)
Paul was an excellent Housesitter and far exceeded our expectations. He had great communication and updates while we were away and we returned to a clean house, happy dogs and the extra little jobs he did around the house was a great added bonus! We would highly recommend Paul and will be asking him back when we go on our next trip
RACHEL (Beldon WA, Jun 2023 - 1 week 6 nights)
just wanted to say how lucky we were finding Paul, we thought that a huge garden, two dogs and huge aviary with over 100 birds would frighten anyone off, but he took on the challenge, kept us updated daily with pics of our "woofers" and birds, all we can say is....job well done Paul, came home to a spotless home and we suspect....two very spoiled beagles....thanks again Paul.....great job, Domenico and Brian......or as he referred to us as.....B&D.

Paul went above and beyond our expectations completing many tasks on our property. Including digging burning out a huge stumps.
Making sure our property was fire safe towards the summer ahead.
When Paul leaves Bullsbrook, he will be sadly missed by many people that he assisted in the community. We highly recommend Paul with no hesitation. Thank you for honesty and trust.

Thank you Paul
ISOBEL (Bullsbrook WA WA, Apr 2021 - 5 months)
Patricia and Paul looked after our dog and house without any fuss. Easy to communicate with before we went away and then updates every now and then when we were away. Would certainly recommend and we'd ask back.
CLAIRE (Bayswater WA, Mar 2021 - 1 week 2 days)
Thank you Paul for looking after our home like it was your own. Clean, tidy and extra cleaning was done which we really appreciated. Our plants looked better with you than they ever did with us!
You sent photos to us of our pets every couple of days and this made us feel so happy. We had people tell us that you were so polite and a great temporary neighbour. We would have you back anytime. Thank you again for all your care. Dave and Suzie.

What an amazing experience we had! This was our first time having a house sitter and we hit the jackpot with Paul and Patricia. Paul was excellent at communicating with me before, during and after their stay at our house. He provided regular updates and photos of our dogs which we loved. Our house was in a far superior state when we returned than when we left it!! Paul had done so much work in our veggie garden and tidying around outside our house, we are forever grateful.

Paul & Patricia came to house sit and look after my dog Koa. Wow wow wow, I've never experienced a dog sitter who spent his relaxation time doing amazing maintenance jobs around the house! I was absolutely blown away! From cleaning all my windows, to fixing the toilet, fixing a window, cleaning the air con filters... just wow. What an absolute treat to come home to.
As well as this I came home to a very happy Koa who I believe was well looked after and loved whilst I was away.

Paul and Patricia were fantastic house sitters. We could not have wished or asked for anything better. Meg, our 11 yr old kelpie, was looked after marvelously well and walked regularly. Photos of her on some of those walks were regularly sent to us and she was obviously very happy. Our house and garden was left in better condition than when we left which shows that Paul and Patricia take their house sitting role seriously and with great pride..We would not hesitate to have them house sit ...

We couldn't have been happier with Paul and Patricia.
They took great care of our poochy and also great care of us by sending lots of pictures and updates about how he was going. It was such a relief to know he was being well looked after which made it easier for us to relax and enjoy our time away.
Banjo also enjoyed the company of Lulu (Pauls chocolate lab) who came to stay.

There is nothing negative that could be said about our experience. We would highly recommend Paul and Patricia to anyone wanting peace of mind that their house and pets are in very good hands.
MEGAN (FORRESTFIELD WA, Jul 2020 - 5 weeks)
From the moment I confirmed Trish and her partner Paul as our house sitters for our trip to Europe they have been nothing but respectful, kind and honest people. Tasked with looking after a reasonably large house and an energetic border collie x retriever, we could not have selected better people. We had two handover meetings before we left ensuring everything was well covered. Both Trish and Paul are clearly animal lovers.

MOREFrom the moment I confirmed Trish and her partner Paul as our house sitters for our trip to Europe they have been nothing but respectful, kind and honest people. Tasked with looking after a reasonably large house and an energetic border collie x retriever, we could not have selected better people. We had two handover meetings before we left ensuring everything was well covered. Both Trish and Paul are clearly animal lovers. This became more evident with daily updates including photos and videos of their adventures to the beach etc. with our dog Molly. Upon our return the house was wonderfully tidy with lots of extra jobs done throughout including gardening, hedge trimming, weeding, window cleaning etc. etc. They certainly went beyond the call of duty and it was such a nice surprise after a long trip back. My wife, who is a bit of a clean freak was so pleased with how the house looked when we got home. In summary, if you are after a house sitter, Trish and Paul are fantastic.......lovely people, extremely respectful and animal lovers through and through. What more could you want.
RICHARD (Doubleview WA, Dec 2019 - 4 weeks)
Hi Richard and Sue
We really enjoyed looking after Molly and your lovely house. Thank you for your wonderful review and we certainly look forward to seeing Molly again.
Kind regards
Trish and Paul
Paul and Trish were excellent in every respect. A delightful couple. We found them to be insightful, analytical with attention to detail. Thoughtful & caring. We have absolute confidence in them and recommend them highly. Should their availability fit in with our future holiday plans, we would love to make use of their services again..

Trish and Paul took great care of our house and dog (Fred) whilst we were away.
Communication and regular updates were fantastic!
We came home to a very clean house and happy dog.

We had a great time looking after Fantastic Fred in your sweet character house in Freo.
Long beach walks for Fred are the best.
Thank you again
Trish and Paul
Trish and Paul are definitely 5 star house sitters who not only provided love and care to our beautiful boy Red but also looked after our home, did some garden tidy for us and left our home clean, secure and tidy for our return. I'd gladly recommend this duo for your house sitting needs short or long term. They even sent gorgeous videos of the fun adventures they had with Red so we could see what they were up to. Thanks once again Trish and Paul for looking after everything so well.

We really enjoyed looking after Red. He is a super woofer and although we took him to the beach, the park and the dams we were never able to wear him out ( I tried really hard to) One extremely fit dog.
You have a lovely house, so easy to get to the city and we look forward ... MORESandy and Steve

Our pets were loved so much in our absence, we received frequent updates on what was going on and lots of photos of the adventures that they were all having.
Communication was great in the lead up to the house sit and during. We have also spoken post house sit and Paul has even taken our dog out on another adventure as I can tell she already misses them!
You would be lucky to have Trish & Paul look after your home, I think we need to go away more often and lock these two down as much as possible!!
Thanks again Trish & Paul, you're amazing!

Communication was great, we kept in touch over the weeks leading up to the house sit and we received lots of reassuring messages and photos while we were away, including all of the fun adventures they took the dog on. They had a few issues with the house due to bad weather while we were away and they were more than happy to attend to them as needed without making a fuss or causing us stress while we were away which was much appreciated. We returned home to a very clean home and well cared for yard/pool/gardens + happy pets!. We would definitely recommend them to others and would happily have them back again!
EMMA (Kiara WA, Aug 2019 - 2 weeks 4 days)
Thank you Emma.
We already miss George and his antics of disappearing under the furniture.
The growling sofa!!
Trish did a great job she is a lovely person, kind and thoughtful. Our dog was well looked after and he obviously enjoyed being looked after by Trish. The house was perfect. We would highly recommend Trish to anybody looking for a house sitter. Trish got around to fixing a couple of small jobs that I never seemed to have the time to do.
JULIE (City Beach WA, Dec 2017 - 1 week 1 day)
We were away for 6 weeks and had absolutely no concerns about our home. Trish and Dan did a wonderful job taking care of our sheep, cow, dog, chickens, garden and house. The house was immaculate. We have no hesitation recommending these lovely people.

A house sitter provides loving, full-time, home-based pet-care while you're away.
