Reliable, quiet pet-lover

59, Unified Communications/IT Consultant

Hi there!

I am a single (divorced), late 50's, professional man. Having owned several houses myself I am fully conscious of the care and security required to maintain a house. I love pets and have owned dogs, cats and birds throughout my life and would be happy to care for yours. I am currently available for any period of house-sitting and can provide personal and professional references. I am a highly reliable, responsible and considerate person and would take excellent care of your property and pets. I also enjoy peace and quiet and enjoy my own company. I like gardening and can perform simple home maintenance jobs, if required. Non-smoker and non-drinker.

If you want peace-of-mind while you're away from your home and pets, you can relax while I'm in residence.

Enjoy your break! :)

We feel very lucky to have met Nick and have him as our house sitter and companion for our dog Campa. We caught up a couple of times in the weeks leading up to the the sit to ensure everyone was happy (ie - the dog and Nick) and that he knew the routines. Nick was really caring and confident from the moment they met and Campa took to him straight away. During our trip, Nick kept in touch to let us know all was well and that he and Campa had bonded beautifully. It was wonderful knowing that ... MORE

This is the second time Nick has house sat for us and everything went just as smoothly as the first time. Nick is very easygoing and friendly and our dog seems to enjoy his company. The house was in perfect condition following his stay and we wouldn't hesitate to have Nick stay again next time we go away. He is the perfect house and pet sitter and his 5 star rating is very well deserved, Thank you Nick!

Nick is always top of our list to look after our home and animals whilst away. Nick takes great care of the animals and leaves the house immaculate. Thank you so much for all you do for us.
 
GRACE (Blackwood SA, Jan 2021 - 3 days - 1 of 3 endorsements from this owner )
This is the second time Nick has house sitted for us and we would reach out to him again. Nick cares and loves our animals and returns the house to us more tidier then we left it. Nick keeps us informed on how the animals are going and is just a lovely person to know.
 
GRACE (Blackwood SA, Aug 2020 - 5 days - 2 of 3 endorsements from this owner )
Nick did a fantastic job looking after our house and 2 cats. On our return home, house was very clean and tidy - wouldn't know he'd been there. Our cats were well looked after - obviously not stressed as they hadn't lost any weight! Nick was the first professional house sitter we have used and would highly recommend him to others and use him for our next holiday. Thanks again Nick!
 
PAM (Blackwood SA, Jul 2020 - 4 weeks)
This is the 3rd house sit that Nick has sat for us and each time we have come home to a happy dog and clean and tidy house and garden. Our communication with Nick has been very easy and he has obviously gotten on very well with our dog Stella as she has the sad sacks on the day after he has left as though she is missing him. I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending Nick to look after anyone's house or animals - he's very easy to get along with and hope we might be lucky to ... MORE
 
PAULINE (GLENGOWRIE SA, Feb 2020 - 2 weeks 4 days)
It was so lovely coming home to a clean and tidy house and a happy rabbit. Nick was fantastic, he communicated when needed and went beyond to ensure the house was tidy for a house inspection.
 
GRACE (Kidman Park SA, Jan 2020 - 1 week - 3 of 3 endorsements from this owner )
We had Nick house sit for two weeks. We returned to happy beagles and a clean house with maintained gardens. Nick was reliable, friendly and we would highly recommend especially if you have pets. We would welcome Nick to our home to sit anytime.
 
KERRI AND DAVID (Craigburn Farm SA, Dec 2019 - 2 weeks 2 days)
We were more than happy that Nick house sat for us for 2 weeks recently. The house was immaculate on our return, and he managed to look after the garden very well, despite the horrendous heatwave in Adelaide during his stay. He also took great care of our very elderly dog who required a little more care than usual. We would be more than happy to have Nick house sit for us again and highly recommend him to others seeking a sitter.
 
LORRAINE (Colonel Light Gardens SA, Dec 2019 - 2 weeks)
Nick is always reliable and I feel very happy to leave my precious kitty and pup with him. His communication is spot on and everything was perfect when I arrived home. He's back in January and I highly recommend Nick as a house and pet sitter!
 
ANNABEL (Adelaide SA, Dec 2019 - 1 week - 1 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
To come home to a clean and tidy house is a dream at the end of a long day's travel. My cat and dog were so well cared for and Nick has won my dog Talulah's heart! (She spent the evening looking for him! ) I felt 100% comfortable with Nick looking after my girls and my home. He washed the bedding and brought in laundry for me! Watered plants and the garden and walked Talulah twice day. I have already booked Nick in for a week in December! Nick also responded to my texts promptly and ... MORE
 
ANNABEL (Adelaide SA, Oct 2019 - 1 week 3 days - 2 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
Nick looked after my inner city house and 2 large dogs for 5 weeks. The dogs were both well looked after and were walked twice a day. He also sent regular messages to me while I was away with pictures of the dogs. I would recommend Nick as a house sitter.
 
GEMMA (Adelaide SA, Jul 2019 - 1 month 1 week)
We left Nick in charge of the care of our house, garden and cat Tigger, for a period of ten weeks. We met with him before engaging him and had no doubt from that time that we could have confidence in him. He has excellent communication and problem solving skills. The house was as clean as when left, the cat well looked after, sheets washed, lawns mown and garden tidy. We would have no hesitation re engaging if we ever go away again and would recommend him to others.
 
RICHARD & PAULINE (Aldinga Beach SA, May 2019 - 2 months)
Thank you Nick for taking care of our home and fur babies over Easter .This was our first time using Aussiehousesitters and we were delighted with the process . The communication was excellent and we felt completely at ease . The house even seemed tidier than when we left ?! Wonderful arrangement.
 
JANE (Mylor SA, Apr 2019 - 4 days)
Great guy, very friendly. No problems at all with great communication and looked after our dogs. He even mowed our lawns and we never asked him to. Thanks! Would definitely have him back.
 
JOYCE AND LUKE (Nairne SA, Apr 2019 - 5 days)
Nick came 2 days early to get to know our cat and learn his routine. Nick won the cat over and took great care of him, our lovebirds and the garden, He also washed the sheets and towel that he used which we did not expect and kept the house and yard very tidy. If you want a great sitter Nick is excellent and extremely professional
 
GLORIA (MANNUM SA, Mar 2019 - 1 week)
Nick is a reliable Housesitter. He left our home very clean and tidy. Nick's care of our dog Bo was thoughtful and as instructed. We would highly recommend Nick as a Housesitter and have booked him again. Nick left a vase of beautiful roses for us - indicative of his thoughtfulness.
 
DEBORAH (Moana SA, Mar 2019 - 4 days)
We are new to Aussie House Sitters & Nick helped us with what we needed to do. We were please to find Nick who was happy to look after all our animals. Taffy our dog liked Nick from the start & Max the cat found a new lap to sit on. When we arrived home from holidays we found the house neat & tidy, the garden looking good & happy pets (dog, cat, fish & chickens), We would recommend Nick & Aussie House Sitters.
 
TRACEY (Croydon Park SA, Jan 2019 - 1 week)
We had a last minute find with Nick who came to our rescue to care for our two dogs and home. Was so happy to come home to see my dogs happy and relaxed and my home well kept.. Great communication up and throughout the duration of our short holiday away. Very friendly and respectful gentleman. I definately recommend Nick for the care of your pets and home.
