Prior to joining Aussie House Sitters as a Sitter, I was a member of one of your competitor's sites. The difference is remarkable! Your site is so refreshingly easy to use, everything works as it should, super simple to quickly search for house sits. I absolutely love it! I am also getting regular direct contact from owners - another differentiating factor with your site compared to others out there. Within 48 hours of joining I had secured my first house sit and was approached by numerous home owners! Thank you for the superb service your provide. If I could send you a gold medal I would :-) Tara
