I've had 2 great years housesitting from this site, and would just like to say thank you for the great opportunity and the ease-of-use for everyone involved. I've recommended you to so many people on my travels, and have been to places I never thought I'd go. I'm sure I've seen more of Australia than anyone I know! I've made some great friends along the way too. Thanks again Aussie Housesitters, and may you have a joyful and successful 2018. Christine
