Phil and Jen

66, Retired organic farmer / teacher/mail delivery contractor

PHIL- I have worked in the farming / gardening area for the last 22 years, 16 of which we ran our own organically certified property producing vegetables and eggs. I have also been conducting a garden maintenance service and a roadside mail delivery contract. I am a non smoker/ non drinker and am very comfortable in tasks and duties that involve upholding and maintaining. I have a strong sense of responsibility and commitment and have been involved in leadership roles within our church. Natural history is a keen interest for me as is bushwalking and kayaking. With Jen, I have been house/property sitting for the past seven years, including care of both household pets and livestock.
I hold a current police check.
JEN - In addition to working on our farm, I was also an infants/primary teacher, conducted a house cleaning service and partnered with Phil in the mail delivery contract and recently in the garden maintenance service. I am a non smoker/non drinker and we both enjoy good health and fitness. I enjoy caring for my home and treat others homes with the same sense of care and responsibility. As I was involved in tutoring and youth work at our church, I have a current police check and we can provide references from previous house sits if needed. I enjoy farm and outdoor activities as well as music and singing.

DEBBIE (Wandandian NSW NSW, Mar 2024 - 2 weeks 4 nights)
Phil and Jen were excellent house sitters, and very nice genuine people. They went far beyond what was anticipated and expected of them doing significant tidying up in the garden and around and in the shed in addition to looking after my 2 elderly dogs. They also were excellent in looking after my cattle which were/are calving at the time. They aided in moving the cattle and lick blocks from paddock to paddock and checking my heifers at least twice per day. They also left everything in a very ... MORE

Jenny &Phil looked after our hobby farm, sheep,chooks,vege & general gardens & paddocks for 2 months. When we met them we were confident they would do a good job and they did not disappoint. It was so good to come home to a beautifully kept property after a great holiday. That made it even more worthwhile. We would not hesitate to highly recommend them

NEIL (Bayonet Head WA, Sep 2020 - 1 week 3 days)
Phil and Jen were amazing house and pet sitters. We were very comfortable leaving them to look our beloved Daphne, who isn't the easiest dog to look after. Phil and Jen left the house even better than they found it, having tidied the gardens and even our messy shed. Thank you Phil and Jen!
 
SARAH (Hopetoun WA, Jul 2020 - 3 weeks)
Thank you Sarah for your review. We did enjoy you place and found no problem s with Daphne. She is a delight very easy to look after and so well behaved. Thanks again for having us. We are at Walpole at moment in our van. Lovely spot. Regards Jen and Phil
Phil and Jenni Beach house sat for us on our rural property for two weeks during February 2019. We were able to have a very restful holiday knowing our house and dogs were in their care. They kept us informed of anything we needed to know, put up with some painters and cared for our dogs. The garden was so well maintained while we were away that on our return it looked much better than it ever does. They even took a tyre to town for repair and fixed a blind in the bedroom. We would ... MORE
 
WENDY (Orange NSW, Feb 2019 - 2 weeks 2 days)
I cannot say enough positive things about Phil and Jenny. They took such wonderful care of our home, garden and pets - in fact they went above and way beyond all and anything that was asked of them. They are kind and thoughtful and will do an amazing job for you should decide to select Phil and Jenny to care for your home and pets. Our deepest gratitude for all they did for us. They bonded with our pets and they were clearly sad to say bye to my three dogs too. Thank you, thank you thank you. ... MORE

Thanks Steve, we enjoyed your sit and appreciate your review of us.
Outstanding housesitters who cared for our home and garden and general farm so well. Dogs were well looked after and walked daily. We highly recommend Philio and Jen and look forward to welcoming them back to our property anytime.
 
JANNIENE (Dorrigo NSW, Oct 2018 - 1 week 1 day)
Phil and Jen looked after our house for 4 months and we were very pleased with everything on our return, and also while we were away. We felt very comfortable with them when we met them and loved keeping in touch with email while we were away. The house and gardens were lovely and tidy and we could just pick up where we left off. Thanks Phil and Jen, it was a load off our minds while we were away to know you were looking after things at home.

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
