The Gallaghers

58, Sportzing NSW North tennis court maintenance

62, Sportzing NSW North tennis court maintenance

We are a house and garden proud, non smoking mature couple that decided to take time out from our jobs, to travel around Australia, to find our preferred new place to settle. We are not the camping type and enjoy our home comforts. We love gardening and all animals, maybe not a pet snake though! We are well travelled and enjoy becoming part of a community, taking part in sport and local activities. We love to walk and explore natural surroundings. We settled in Port Macquarie in 2018 and purchased a franchise, servicing tennis courts. This takes us to all parts of NSW North of the Hawkesbury River, so we are well travelled and familiar with many parts of NSW.

Being proud home owners ourselves, we know what is important, peace of mind that our homes will be returned to us in good nick with happy pets and healthy gardens.

We were active on Aussie House
Sitters for 6 months in 2017 and now that we are maintaining tennis courts, we are often asked by our clients to house sit and look after their pets while we work in the area.

We have decided that we would like to house sit again where it is convenient for both parties.

Thank you, we loved our house sit, so comfortable and all 4 pets crept under our skin. We are looking forward to being back in November.
Debbie and Gary looked after our home and French Bulldogs for 6 days whilst we visited the NT. They left the house spotless and responded quickly to messages. Lenny was very well cared for and we would highly recommend them. Chantelle and Jason

WARNING, WARNING, WARNING The actions of Deb and Gary are despicable, atrocious and disgusting. This was was my first time using house sitters and my experience has left a terrible taste in my mouth. Went on a 12 night cruise overseas, received a frantic message from my sister out in middle of the ocean 2 days after leaving, saying that house sitters have left and abandoned the dogs and birds. There excuse was they couldn't deal the dog poo, and slugs outside. This couple did a facetime, ... MORE

We would like to confirm that we have never and would never abandon anyone's loved pets. So sorry that your family have been untruthful in relaying what actually happened.
I was very happy with everything. Debbie and Gary took great care of my furkids and my home. I really hope they are available should I need another holiday :)

If we can we will be available 😉😊💞
I was so pleased that Debbie and Gary responded to my invitation to sit. With so many pets to look after things can get a bit complicated and I needed a couple that could manage that and everything else that goes on around here! Such a wonderful team that left the house in immaculate condition and our pets looking like they had been expertly cared for. I've no hesitation in recommending Debbie and Gary and look forward to having them back in the future. They are experienced house sitters, ... MORE

Thank you Tony, we miss the gang. They were fun.
Thank you so much Debbie and Gary for looking after everything so well while we were away. The animals all looked super relaxed when we arrived home and the house was left immaculate. Great communication from Debbie. I would highly recommend Debbie and Gary.

No rating There is just not enough we can say about Debbie and Gary! They were the best surrogate parents for our two fur babies! The pups still miss them. They looked after the house beautifully! Would love to have them back!
ANGELA (Highton VIC, Dec 2017 - 2 days)
No rating Debbie And Gary are a warm friendly outgoing couple who love nature and animals making them ideal sitters for our property and much loved horse Autumn. They left the cottage immaculate gardens still thriving and a happy horse and wildlife. We even received a beautiful bunch of flowers on our return as they knew I loved them. We would happily recommend them to others. Thank you Debs n Gary!
JULIE AND JAKE (Fountaindale NSW, Nov 2017)
No rating Our fur baby Gus LOVED Debbie and Gary! Being a British Bulldog with hip problems we are always worried when we need to leave him with others but thanks to Debbie and Gary we could enjoy our holiday since they texted us daily updates about how Gus played with his balls and took his meds. The only pity is that they aren't available for our next holiday;-) Thanks heaps for looking after our home an baby!
LINNEA (Upper Coomera QLD, Oct 2017 - 4 days)
No rating Thank you Debbie and Gary for minding our two dogs. A very clean house and two very happy dogs when we returned home! We truly had peace of mind while away that all was in good hands. Thanks so much and safe travels.

No rating Hi Deborah and Gary When we arrived home the dog, two cats, three chooks, one horse and thirty sheep all looked at us and said "Not you again. Where are those nice people who were here looking after us?" Thanks for spoiling them and looking after our house. You did a great job. We appreciate it.

Green garden!

Make sure the garden and pot plants are thriving when you get back - get a house sitter.
