The Thoughtful Carer

48, Doctor

I am an experienced housesitter, and enjoy taking care of pets and gardens.
I have a lot of experience caring for cats and dogs and am sensitive to their needs.
I have looked after extensive gardens on previous housesits and enjoy watering plants.
I have excellent references from previous housesitting and am currently on a housesit.

As you can see from my photos, I have been a keen gardener since I was young.
I also included my university graduation photo.

I don't have any children or pets.
I don't smoke, drink alcohol or have parties.
I am a quiet person and treat animals with kindness.
Currently I am not tied to a job, so I have freedom to move around and have time to look after your pets and gardens.
I am a GP but pursuing my interest in music and composing.
I look forward to helping you by looking after your home and pets.

For us Stephen is the ideal house sitter, particularly because of his cat whispering skills. We have a shy rag doll who hides away from most visitors. Stephen was able to befriend our cat within 48 hours of them meeting each other. Stephen also went beyond the call of duty in looking after our garden and house. Stephen is the kind of house sitter that one can plan holidays based on his availability. There is no better recommendation than this that we can think of.
 
ROBERT (TAFFY) & GLENYS (Kingaroy QLD, Oct 2023 - 4 weeks)
Thank you for your kind words.
Stephen is definitely a very caring and thoughtful house sitter. We were very impressed with this attention to detail when caring for our two cats. He went above and beyond in the care of our senior cat that required special care and administration of medication. Stephen handles all situations without fuss, left the house tidy and clean, and attended to our garden and lawn maintenance. He is very personable and is an excellent communicator. We would highly recommend Stephen and would ... MORE

Stephen was a wonderful house sitter and took very good care of our property and garden. He was easy to communicate with and it was peace of mind to have him stay. We would highly recommend him and wouldn't hesitate to contact him again. Neil & Lorelle

Thank you.
Would highly recommend Stephen. House and gardens were well cared for and communication good. He even popped over a few days later to ensure all was well.
 
MERRIL (Annandale QLD, Mar 2023 - 4 months)
We really appreciated the great care Stephen provided for our House, Garden and Banjo our dog. Great communication and flexibility due to flight delays also. Highly recommend Stephen for any house sit.
 
PHILIP AND JANINE (North Lakes QLD, Jan 2023 - 2 weeks 1 day)
We had a very positive experience with Stephen house sitting for us. Cats and gardens were very well looked after as was house and cars. I had a whole list of notes on cats, house and garden which didn't phase him at all! Communication was also good and I got reply's very quickly when I sent emails. As a result we are having Stephen house sit for us again. I would recommend Stephen without hesitation to anyone who needs a house sitter and would be more then happy to provide a reference.

No rating Stephen looked after our house and garden very well, harvesting the produce and keeping the plants trimmed. The house was tidy on our return and we are very happy with our first house sitting experience.
BRENDA (Albany Creek QLD, Aug 2018)
No rating Stephen is a friendly, cheerful, honest and reliable person. He pampered our dogs, mowed the lawn and kept the house spotless and the gardens well tendered. We highly recommend Stephen to care for your animals and property.
CHRIS (Southport Park QLD, May 2018 - 2 months 1 week)
No rating We were very pleased with Stephen's care of our home, garden and wildlife while we were away, everything was in good condition when we returned. He took care of minor problems that developed unexpectedly in a competent manner, kept us informed, and dealt well with our neighbours. We can recommend his care of your home and garden.
RAY & JENNI (Macleay Island QLD, Mar 2018 - 2 months 1 week)
No rating Stephen is a commendable Housesitter who you can really trust and who took a keen interest in caring for both my cats, noticing each of their quirks and identifying any particular need they may have. Stephen genuinely adores animals and having a clinical background also an advantage in terms of the level of care provided to the pets. Stephen kept the house very tidy, kindly made several repairs and changed lightbulbs etc, collected mail and organised a cleaning job required in the bathroom. ... MORE
