Our home

I am going away on the 31/08/2026 returning late in late afternoon of the 17/09/2026 and need someone to look after my 2 little dogs.

The house is a lovely 1920's bungalow only about 9km from the city centre.

Henry & Tilly are small elderly dogs that stay inside. I am looking for someone kind to look after them while I am away to give them love, attention and to be walked daily.

Only experienced house sitters with references need apply.

No students please or people with children ... Read more

Lucky to enjoy another 2 weeks caring for Teresa’ lovely home & happy friendly 2 doggos Henry & Tilley in Colonel Light Gardens. Fingers crossed for next time !? Thanks Teresa 🙏 Peter & Faiza 🤗
Henry and Tilly were an absolute pleasure to take care of during our stay and Teresa the owner was a wonderful communicator and welcomed us to her home warmly and with plenty of information from the get go. It was easy to get in contact with her if needed, although the pups were very chill and just loved spending time with my partner and I and going for walks or hanging out at home. We would absolutely sit for these two again!

This was the second sit we had done for Teresa. As always the house was spotless & pets easy to care for. Both dogs enjoy company after getting over their initial shyness. They enjoyed their daily walk in the park conveniently located just across the road from the house.

Thank you for your review . It was a pleasure to look after Tilly & Henry they were so well behaved. Your home was very comfortable & the garden full of colour a great place to sit & enjoy breakfast & lunch on the warm days.

This was my second sit for Teresa and again it was most enjoyable. I was kept busy and amused by Tilly, Henry and cousin Moose. All are real characters and no trouble to sit. Teresa is easy to communicate with and her house is very comfortable. I would be happy to sit again if required. Sandy

Teresa was pleasure to sit for. She has a large comfortable home and her small dogs (Tilly and Henry) were a delight once they overcame their initial shyness. They loved the company and walks and were very enthusiastic. It was a very easy sit and I fully recommend her. Sandy
