Our pets

DogsDogs (2)
Looking for a caring and confident pet sitter for our two dogs, Nala (Staffy x Cattle Dog) and Frankie (German Shepherd x Kelpie). They’re affectionate and love human company, but are reactive to other dogs, so walks are best done early morning or late evening when it’s quiet (We usually walk them at 5:30am before work). They’d suit a couple or two people, as walking them together is much easier with two sets of hands. They sleep indoors, have backyard access during the day, and need feeding twice daily, playtime, and lots of cuddles. Not suitable for children. Full instructions and support provided!

Had a great stay at Nicole and Stuart’s! Completely fell in love with Nala and Frankie… such cool, cuddly doggos!
We absolutely loved staying in Randwick with Frankie and Nala, two gorgeous dogs! We loved playing, going for walks, and spending time at home with them they were such sweethearts! Thank you to Nicole and Stuart for their kindness, communication, and trust! Téo and Alyssa.
We had a truly wonderful experience housesitting for Nicole & Stuart. Communication with them was very easy and clear from start to finish, which made everything run smoothly. Their dogs, Nala and Frankie, were absolutely lovely—extremely affectionate, playful, and cuddly. They were a joy to care for, and as long as you stick to their routine, everything goes perfectly.

The house itself was in an ideal location, offering a peaceful setting while still being conveniently close to local attractions. Highly recommended! :)

We had a brilliant time looking after Nala and Frankie for the weekend! Nicole and Stuart were so easy to talk to in the run up to the house sit and left us brilliant instructions for caring for their dogs. Thank you so much for having us look after your beautiful pets and home!
Looking after Nala and Frankie was great fun!!! They are both very sweet and like to stay close and cuddle with us whenever possible!!! Very intelligent and know how to follow commands and learn quickly. The walks can be a little challenging for less experienced people. They require someone who can control and handle them well, especially if you choose to walk them together. The house is very cosy and we felt at home with people very similar to us, which was a nice experience. ... MoreLooking after Nala and Frankie was great fun!!!

Communication was clear and effective and we were given all the information we needed to carry out the sit with confidence and peace of mind. We were comfortable and would recommend the sit!

It was so lovely to stay at Nicole's and look after Nala and Frankie! They are gorgeous, cuddly and friendly dogs. This was a perfect getaway for us and Nicole was very kind and understanding. She communicated really well!
We had an amazing pet sit for Nicole and her two lovely dogs Frankie and Nala. We got very clear instructions and communication was perfect! The house was super clean and Nicole provided us with anything we would need. Being in the house with Frankie and Nala was really pleasant. We loved to play frisbee with Nala in the garden and Frankie gave us all his cuddles, while we were working from home. With clear instructions on the walkies, we always navigated around other dogs, so it was perfectly ... MoreWe had an amazing pet sit for Nicole and her two lovely dogs Frankie and Nala.

Thank you Nicole for your trust - we are happy to sit on the next occasion and to meet Nala & Frankie again!

A Huge Thanks to Nicole and Stuart! We had a wonderful time looking after Nala and Frankie! ❤ About the House: Nicole and Stuart's home is in a quiet area, close to Coogee Beach and UNSW. We enjoyed taking the dogs for relaxing walks around the scenic neighborhood. The house is conveniently near supermarkets, buses, and the tram. It was spotless, spacious, and had a lovely backyard—perfect for the dogs! We had a cozy room, and Nicole and Stuart provided all the info we needed, plus some ...

They're both affectionate and sweet, and playing fetch with them was a highlight. They’re not fans of other dogs on walks, but their happiness made it all worth it! ❤

This was a last minute call up and Nicole was perfectly organised for it with all the information I needed organised and clear and prompt communication throughout the weekend. The home is super clean and tidy with everything you could need for a comfortable stay Nala and Frankie are the sweetest dogs - full of beans and also very happy to chill on the couch for slow mornings or lazy afternoons between walks or play time in the backyard 10/10 would recommend
Nicole and Stuart were so friendly and welcoming, really good communication throughout. We loved looking after Frankie and Nala, they're lovely dogs. Would recommend to anyone!
We had the best time looking after Nala and Frankie. They are both loving dogs who enjoyed some cuddles on the couch and were also happy to chill and do their own thing. They loved to play in the back garden with their toys and they had their own little quirks that made us laugh everyday. Nicole & Stuart were great right from the start. They made sure we knew how everything worked in the house and kept up communication during our stay to make sure we were alright. Their house is lovely and ...
