Melinda was fabulous, we could not have had a better pet/house sitter. She is very professional, reliable, totally trustworthy, confident and competent with animals. After our initial meeting with Melinda we felt completely comfortable leaving her with our 2 dogs, and the house. Her communication with us was great, we got regular updates and photos while we were away. The little extras she did were appreciated. The house was immaculate when we returned, and it was clear that the dogs had been ... MORE
 
MANDY (Penguin TAS, Jun 2023 - 3 weeks)
Thankyou Mandy and David, your House is such a relaxing space and beyond convenient to the Beach and Penguin Township. Buddy and Lucy are soooo relaxed and a dream to look after. I would be more than happy to Housesit for you again if I am available : )
Oh my goodness! Where do I start? Melinda is the bomb! Honestly I cannot recommend this lovely lady more highly. Melinda looked after our most precious fur children Sam (golden retriever) and Aggie (cat) probably better than us! At all times we felt that they were in the very best of care. I'm sure Sam is having withdrawal symptoms currently � Our home and garden were very well looked after. Without a doubt, this lovely person Melinda is fantastic! Thanks so much Melinda
 
SHARI (Bridport TAS, Nov 2022 - 7 weeks)
Thankyou so much Shari, was not a difficult ask to look after Sam ♥ and Aggie or your beautiful Home in lovely little Bridport. 7 weeks of Bliss!
Melinda is wonderful she left the home immaculate, dogs were well cared for and we came home to a meal too. Melinda stayed in touch regularly too with regular photos sent through and updates as well. She looked after our dogs well and washed them and their bedding before we returned. Melinda is coming back for another sit too.
 
MEREDITH (Longford TAS, Sep 2022)
Melinda house-sat for us for approx. 10 weeks. From our first conversation we felt very comfortable and confident Melinda was the right person, and she was. She looked after our home beautifully, We kept in contact regularly. She even left us a beautiful welcome home gift, We have already asked if she would return next year. We are more than happy to recommend Melinda for any future house-sits. Jude and Rob (0418102623)
 
JUDE (Launceston TAS, May 2022 - 10 weeks)
It was a delight to have Melinda in our home and taking care of our pets. Melinda went above and beyond our expectations. Her communication prior to her stay and during was friendly and reassuring. Our dog and cat were exceedingly well looked after and our home on return was as we left it plus more! Melinda is caring, respectful and took her position as our house sitter with responsibility. I can confidently recommend her and will certainly call on her again.
 
ROBYN (East Devonport TAS, Jan 2022 - 4 weeks)
Melinda was fantastic to have housesitting for us. We knew Millie and the house were in great hands. She kept us informed of what was happening and sent through some photos. The house was in great condition when we returned and she'd even left us some treats. I would not hesitate to recommend Melinda and would be keen to use her again if the circumstances allowed.
 
CLAIRE (Point Cook VIC, Nov 2021 - 12 days)
Claire was just great to communicate with, the Home is so Beautiful, super Tidy and so convenient to the leafy shopping Village and very peaceful walking Millie around the Wetlands area, she is just beyond the cutest little dog in the world. Thankyou for allowing me to look after Millie and your ... MORE
From the initial conversation with Melinda we felt very comfortable having her look after our home and much loved dog Indi and cat Skittles. The process was so easy and simple. Melinda took care of our home and pets as if it were her own. Our pets just loved her and we loved getting updates along the way. The house was immaculate on our return which is so appreciated. I would not hesitate recommending Melinda and hope that we can have her back someday. Thanks so much Melinda! Indi and Skittles ... MORE
 
RACHEL (Jan Juc VIC, Jul 2021 - 3.5 months)
Melinda is amazing! I felt extremely comfortable leaving my house and kitty in her care. Her communication while I was away was outstanding including lots of photos of the kitty. The house was super clean when I returned and my cat was very calm and happy. I really couldn't have asked for anything more from a housesitter. Highly recommend Melinda and I am hoping that next time I need a sitter she will be available.
 
KATHY (JAN JUC VIC, May 2021 - 5 weeks)
Thank you Kathy ! Very relaxing space to Housesit, such a lovely house and short walk to Beach. Thankyou for use of the Car it was so Handy. Davey (Cat) well he is the cutest, most affectionate, most adorable little orange Gem ive ever had the pleasure of looking after : )
I cannot reccommend Melinda highly enough. Initially I was looking for someone for the two weeks of school holidays but Melinda was available for a four week stint just prior to holidays (lucky because due to covid 19 the school holiday trip had to be aborted). So she came at a moments notice and I instantly felt that she would be a great fit. She quickly developed a good rapport with my dog which made me feel really confident about leaving her with him for four weeks. Melinda regularly posted ... MORE
 
KAYE (Aspendale VIC, Mar 2020 - four weeks)
Thankyou Kaye, absolutely enjoyed having the opportunity of being so close to the beach and sharing it with Tex everyday. Lovely vibe with the property and Tex just completes it : )
From first meeting Melinda, I instantly knew that she would be a great fit to look after our house and care for our fur baby. Melinda was often in contact, giving us reports about the ever so changing climate of Melbourne in January and the welfare of our dog. She took great care in keeping the house clean and tidy, with the added care of the garden and pool. Nothing was too much. I would not hesitate recommending Melinda to care for your house and animals whilst enjoying your holidays. We hope ... MORE
 
MEREDITH (Aberfeldie VIC, Dec 2019 - 3 weeks approx)
As first timers with having a house sitter we were just a little apprehensive about the concept. Our fears, however, were groundless; Melinda is a gem, one in a million. Melinda took complete care of our house and chooks during our recent five week trip and kept us informed of how things were going with regular updates. We were able to have a relaxing time knowing our home was in safe hands. On our return we found the house to be immaculately clean and tidy. We wholeheartedly recommend ... MORE
 
STEPHEN & FIONA (Mount Evelyn VIC, Oct 2019 - 5 weeks)
Thankyou for such a great review ! I absolutely enjoyed your lovely home and the veggie garden : ) Really peaceful area and the little chickens were so friendly, fresh eggs everyday. Thanks again for an enjoyable stay.
Being first timers to the House sitting world, we were very apprehensive and nervous about it. However, Melinda was absolutely lovely. Upon meeting her for the first time we instantly felt comfortable, meeting her a second time for the handover before we went away we felt so much more relaxed about leaving our dog and home to someone we no longer felt was a stranger. Throughout our absence, Melinda sent photos of our dog and their adventures and it really helped us relax, knowing he was ... MORE
 
LEE (Sunbury VIC, Sep 2019 - 5 weeks)
To Whom It May Concern, Faye and I engaged Melinda to look after our Home and Pets (Molly and Max our Dogs, George our Rabbit and 45 Fish) while we were Overseas for six weeks. We were very happy when we returned to see our home in a spotless condition. Melinda did an excellent job taking care of our home and gardens. Our Pets were also well looked after with their feeding and what needed to be done. Melinda also kept us updated by Email on what was going on, which gave us reassurance ... MORE
