RobynandShane

62, Retired Primary School Teacher

67, Retired small business owner

Robyn and I are experienced housesitters and have also engaged housesitters when we owned our own home in Montville, Qld.
We lived on 7.5 acres in Montville and we had 2 pet 9 year old steers called Victa and Rover. We have in the past owned and loved both dogs and cats, and we are both kind and caring pet owners.
We are both non-smokers, fully vaccinated against Covid-19 and extremely house and garden proud, clean and tidy people. We would treat your home and pets as we would our own.
Robyn is a registered early years primary school teacher and I am retired after the sale of our business in 2015. I currently have a QLD Blue card as I also did casual maintenance work at a school near us.
I would consider myself to be very handy. We have had experience with electric fencing which we used for our steers.
We are caravanners and are thoroughly enjoying housesitting and caring for some beautiful pets and homes as we travel. We have had experience with dogs, cats, chooks, alpacas, horses, cattle, birds, mice, guinea pigs and fish!
We would be delighted to look after your home and pets.

We have included below some reviews of us as house owners .
and we also have a number of reviews from recent house sits on our profile.

Review 1: Wow, how lucky were we to be selected as sitters for Shane and Robyn. Their home is gorgeous and the gardens spectacular. Looking after their steers Rover and Victor was a breeze. The location is stunning, and nothing was too much trouble for Robyn and Shane. Cannot recommend them highly enough and would love the opportunity to sit for them again one day.

Review 2: Thanks for providing a lovely well kept neat and tidy home for us to enjoy in beautiful Montville, We really enjoyed our stay with so much to see and do in the area as well as the Sunshine Coast so close. The boys, Victa and Rover kept us entertained at feeding times and we thoroughly enjoyed their company. Would love to revisit again.

Robyn and Shane were wonderful looking after our home for just over a week. I came home to a sparkling clean house and one very happy cat!
 
LIBBY (Camp Hill QLD, Jan 2024 - 1 week 1 night)
Robyn & Shane were absolutely amazing house sitters from start to finish. They were communicative, easy to deal with, and very friendly. Throughout the sit they kept giving us regular updates, they even made changes to their schedule so the electricians could come and visit. We then arrived home to a clean house, fresh bedding, a lovely note, snacks in the fridge and one very happy cat!! If I could, I would use Robyn & Shane to house sit for every holiday we go on. Thankyou both for ... MORE

Robyn and Shane were truly amazing. They kept in contact and sent regular photos of our very happy animals! When we arrived home, the house was like a hotel with small things such as milk in the fridge and fresh towels on the newly cleaned beds. It was a relief after a long trip away. Thank you Robyn and Shane! You made our holiday stress free for sure!
 
NIKI (Balmoral QLD, Dec 2023 - 2 weeks)
We came home to a lovely clean house & one very happy cat, who now loves to play with the toys that Robyn & Shane left. (1 big brown paper shopping bag & a couple of ping pong balls) She has a new lease on life & is like a kitten again. Robyn (or Shane) had done some baking & had left us some yummy Anzac bickies & slices. Very much appreciated. Robyn & Shane had communicated with us pre the house sit & came & met us prior to doing it. As soon as we had met them we knew that we were leaving both ... MORE
 
JANETTE (Port Fairy VIC, Jan 2023 - 2 weeks)
Shane & Robyn are lovely people. We felt so at ease knowing that they were looking after our home & fur babies. We were a little concerned leaving Rosie & Snowy because they were a little out of sorts before we left as we had to say goodbye to our old girl Millie a week before we left. But we were updated as to how they were going which was great. They treated them like they were their own. I'm sure if they could tell us they would say they miss them. Communication was fantastic from before ... MORE

Robyn and Shane are lovely reliable sitters who communicate honestly. We came home to a very well cared for house and garden. Thank you Robyn and Shane you are highly recommended.
 
MARY (Baranduda VIC, Oct 2021 - 2 months)
Oh my goodness..the best word to describe this beautiful couple (Robyn & Shane) is magnificent... they knew how much I missed my kitty so they would send me photos and videos a few times a week .. the house was just as I left it if not better the garden was beautiful even edged where we didn't but needed .. Robyn and Shane went above and beyond their sitting duties we just think the world of them .. when we didn't think we could get back over the border because of COVID they came up with a plan ...
