Such a blessing to meet Luke, Pip & dear Kids! They're the most kind, warm & friendly family ever! I truly felt privileged to meet them and felt such a pleasant, positive vibe straight away :-) Their dear kitty cats have beautiful little natures which is a great reflection of their whole family! I cherished their placid little companionship and it was a breeze to look after them :-) Such a lovely family home too! So charming, well organized and easy to look after.

We had a lovely week with wee Beanie and beautiful Lily. The house is in a gorgeous, leafy spot—being able to stroll over to D and D Espresso for a morning coffee was a bonus. Beanie is such a friendly, busy little guy! He’s always announcing his arrival and giving us the full 'report' on his patrols. Like any kitten, he’s a total play machine, and we absolutely loved his loud, chatty greetings whenever he came back in the room Lily is the total opposite: relaxed, sophisticated, and ...

Like any kitten, he’s a total play machine, and we absolutely loved his loud, chatty greetings whenever he came back in the room Lily is the total opposite: relaxed, sophisticated, and happy to just hang out and supervise (Beanie and us!) Pip and Luke were very welcoming and provided detailed information about the kitties and house. We really enjoyed our stay in their beautiful, cosy home.

We had an amazing week at Luke and Pip’s place! Their two cats, Lily and Beanie, are absolutely adorable (we already miss them so much). Beanie is a curious little kitten and incredibly affectionate, while Lily is a sweet, calm, and easygoing cat. Their home is cozy, warm, and truly feels like a family home. We felt completely at home from the moment we arrived. We would be absolutely delighted to return to Luke and Pip’s for another pet sit in the future!

It was truly beautiful to house sit for Luke, Pip and family once again! I'd had the good fortune of helping out a few years ago and it was just so special to be able to help again! Not to mention to see their dear little Lilly puss again! She's such a friendly, affectionate and adorable little thing and the easiest, easy-going little puss ever! Pip and Luke's home was, again, so neat, clean and comfortable and a beautiful, peaceful family home. So special to connect with such a lovely family ...

It was such a happy week getting to spend time with the adorable and lovely Lily❤️ And thanks to the incredibly kind Pip and Luke, I had such a comfortable and lovely stay.
We had a wonderful experience house-sitting for Pip and Luke. Communication was excellent from start to finish, with clear instructions and routines explained in detail. Their home was clean, comfortable, and a pleasure to stay in. Their two cats, Albi and Lily, were absolutely adorable and very easy to care for. Both were friendly and quickly warmed up to us. Administering Albi’s insulin injections was straightforward, as Pip explained the process clearly and made it simple for us. Thank ...

Lily and Albi are two very sweet natured cats, and a pleasure to take care of. Pip and Luke, their human carers, are great communicators, leaving helpful notes and available as needed. Their home is a very comfortable Queenslander and a short walk to a fab shopping centre, that includes a library, medical centres and cosy cafes. I highly recommend this stay.
We looked after Luke and Pip's home while they were away for a week. We also cared for their adorable cats, Albi and Lily. Albi is getting on in years and needs extra attention. The house was clean and tidy.
We had a lovely time in a charming, clean and pleasant house. The cats were extraordinary. They are so easy to live with and so endearing. Communication was excellent. We will be delighted to come back and look after these two marvels.
I had a lovely sit for Pip, Luke and family. There was great friendly communication with clear written instructions and easy contact when needed. They even left me an Easter egg! The cats were so sweet, and although showing his age, Albert was very good taking his injections. The house (2 levels with stairs) was clean, quiet and comfortable and I was able to work online and enjoy some Netflix too. There is a beautiful deck with trees and visiting bird-life.

We had a wonderful moment in their house! Cats are lovely and easy to take care of. Luk and Pip were absolutely kind, the comminucation was very easy. They left some very clear instruction!! We loved it. Thank you very much we recommend without any doubt.
Pip, Luke & family are lovely. Taking care of the house and their lovely cats was a breeze. We met beforehand and Pip took us on a little tour to get to know the house, gave us all the info we needed, and introduced us to Albi, Lily and Momo. These cats are beautiful! Old Albi has our hearts forever. We never felt lonely with Momo around talking to us. And Lily and her beautiful soft hair, would visit us and cuddle. Thank you for choosing us! We'd definately housesit their beautiful home ... MorePip, Luke & family are lovely. Taking care of the house and their lovely cats was a breeze.

Pip and Luke have a comfortable house in a quiet area on Kenmore but close to all conveniences. Their three cats all got on well and were a pleasure to look after. Pip and Luke are easy going, interesting and enjoyable to interact with. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here.
Pip & Luke we're so delightful; they opened up their beautiful home to me and entrusted me with their three gorgeous cats which I absolutely adored. They communicated so well prior during and after; it was an absolute dream housesit. Thank you Pip & Luke. Till next time
Thank you for trusting me with the house and too not betray that trust! This family was so patient and loving seeing me. The children was very friendly and talkative. Just waited patiently to answer all my question i have. Even spent time answering question via sms as i sent them alot. Very organize family and written everything that is needed. Very open to have any of their food eaten. Their cats were very relaxed they stick with you and follow you to keep you company. The ...

The family left really good instructions for me which made the house sit simple! It is lovely and relaxing to sit on the back deck. The cats were nice to have around as company and you may catch one having a nap on your bed :-) I recommend sitting for this nice family!

I have been Luke and Pip's sitter multiple times over the years and every time it is a pleasure to be in their home, caring for their pets, and the excellent communication between us before, during and after each sit. Thank you!
I really enjoyed looking after Albi, Momo and Lily. They were easy going, friendly cats. Pip left great instructions which also helped.
I very much appreciated the opportunity to house-sit for Luke and Pip. The three cats were easy to care for and the house was comfortable, spacious and airy. Thanks so much.
Pip & Luke have a lovely home and their 3 cats are adorable, particularly the kitten Lily. I really enjoyed looking after them and sitting with Lily in the evenings to watch TV, with her purring like a car engine next to me or on my lap! Would be happy to housesit for Pip & Luke again any time.
Luke & Pip were absolutely great with their communication and had clear instructions for the house sit which were easy to follow. It was a delight looking after their adorable cats which are very loving. Their house is comfortable and has everything you need to feel at home. Would definitely recommend house sitting and taking care of their cats and would do it again anytime.
I had a lovely time looking after these two gorgeous cats! Albert needed regular shots, but was so well behaved, and even purred when he got them. It was a very easy place to look after, and I really enjoyed getting to know these gorgeous friendly cats. They just purred up a storm!
Thanks Luke and Pip for letting us sit for you. Communication was very good, everything well explained, too easy. They have a very nice home where you can really relax. Giving Albert the shots was easy. The other cat (Monmouth?) was being affectionate to us, big boy! Thanks again for the gift basket, very nice! Would sit again for these people, we'll organized!
If you want to go somewhere where, even though we hardly saw each other, you feel welcome and cared for by the energy in Pip and Luke's home, then this is a beautiful place to be. xx

Luke and Pip offered us a house where we completely felt at home. It's a nice, clean and light-flooded place with a wonderful terrace, where you'll see a lot of birds and butterflies. The cats we had to look after do not belong to the avarage kind of cat that prefers only coming home for food. They really enjoyed our company and showed how grateful they are being cuddled. Luke and Pip gave us a lot of trust and free space when it comes to house duties. Giving the cat insulin and looking ... MoreLuke and Pip offered us a house where we completely felt at home.

Luke and Pip gave us a lot of trust and free space when it comes to house duties. Giving the cat insulin and looking after them was the only thing they really expected us to do. They always kept in contact with us and were lucky to help with every question or problem. If you'll ever think about taking a housesitter job at their home be aware, that it will be hard to leave this place again. Maybe you shoudn't even go and call us instead because we woule love to go back there!

Pip and Luke made us feel very welcome and comfortable in their lovely home. Their cats were a pleasure to care for and Albi was no trouble receiving his daily injections.

We enjoyed looking after your cats, they were so easy to look after. We also enjoyed visiting the area with the Botanical Garden and Mt Cootha. Kenmore was handy to the city with a great public transportation available outside their house.

We thoroughly enjoyed house sitting for Pip, Luke and family. They have two lovely cats, momo and albi. Albi required two insulin injections a day which he actually seemed to enjoy!! Their house is lovely and very easy to live in and is also in a great area with shops only a ten minute walk away. We would love to come back and house sit again.
