Varena

59, Chef

55, 25 years Public Servant

We are a sensible and reliable non-smoking, professional married couple in our 50's travelling around Australia in our caravan. We have few time constraints so can do short or longer term sits. We are happy to sit most types of homes, large & small. Pets are fine too. We have looked after a variety of animals including dogs, cats, sheep, guinea pigs, chickens, aviary birds, ponies, pigs and fish. We are also experienced in looking after pools & gardens.

Geoff grew up in Canberra & I lived there for 10 years, Then, we relocated to Darwin for a further 10 years & have now been travelling this great country for nearly 13 years!
It's a big place, with loads to see, & the house sitting has given us the opportunity to explore areas in a more relaxed, & extensive way.

We have police clearances & can provide reference contacts if required.

We are currently in Western Australia & will be located here till at least the end of 2023.

Preferred Locations: Western Australia

No rating Varena and Geoff took excellent care of our house and cats while we were away. We came home to a clean house and 2 very happy and well cared for cats. We had regular updates and photos via email while we were away so we knew everything was going well. We had a relaxing holiday away safe in the knowlede that all was well with our house and cats. Highly recommend Varena and Geoff to look after your house.

Varena and Geoff where fabulous house and pet sitters. They looked after the property and cat to a very high standard, sometimes going beyond expectations. Their communication was regular and informative over the 10 weeks we where away. Highly recommended.
 
SUZANNE (Leschenault WA, Feb 2023 - 2 months 2 weeks)
I couldn't be happier with the house sitting service provided by Varena and Geoff - they took amazing care of our home, garden, pool and pets. They kept in touch while we were away, they made sure we had some staples in the fridge on our late evening return, and despite a delayed flight, they waited for us to get home to hand over in person. It's so nice to return to a clean house, sparkling pool and happy pets! I cannot recommend them highly enough!
 
SUSAN (Roleystone WA, Jan 2023 - 2 weeks)
Varena and Geoff looked after our 2 cats, chooks, ducks and fish for just over a week. We couldn't have been happier , they kept us informed with msgs and photos of our cats being totally relaxed and at ease with them! Our house was very clean and tidy and would not hesitate to have them look after our house and animals in the future. Thanks Again to Varena and Geoff.

Varena and Geoff looked after our property and chickens to the highest professional category. I would highly recommend Varena and Geoff to anyone wanting a professional, caring, lovely couple.
 
CAROLINE (Gelorup WA, Jun 2022 - 4 weeks)
Varena & Geoff were very punctual in responding to any communication prior to the house sit. They took the time to come & visit before they committed. We had a lovely 2 week break & although they had some regrettable plumbing problems in our absence they used their initiative & sorted it promptly. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them & wish them luck with their future adventures.
 
JENNY (Bookara WA, Aug 2020 - 2 weeks 3 days)
Geoff and Varena looked after our house together with our two indoor cats for several weeks September-November and then again from December-January. Having never had a house sitter before we were nervous about the whole concept of letting complete strangers into our home. We needn't have worried as this lovely couple did an outstanding job. Everything was extremely well looked after and presented to us immaculately clean and tidy when we returned from overseas trips on both occasions. Varena ... MORE
