I've been housesitting for nearly 3 years now and have found Aussie House Sitters to be very professional. I've enjoyed many different homes and pets over the years. Finding a house to sit is very easy and receiving emails about any new house sits is fantastic. Having looked after some amazing houses and met some fantastic people over the years. I look forward to keeping house sitting and this is the only site I would ever use. When I buy a home, this is the site I will be returning to for house sitters. Thankyou Aussie House Sitters for running a very professional site. David
