I cannot recommend Carole and Russ highly enough. They were exceptional. My elderly rescued toy poodle, Ebonee was cared for with great attention and love. She’s a very nervous dog yet warmed to Russ and Carole very quickly and appeared to be contented whilst we were away. No health issues were communicated to me and any anxiety I initially felt about leaving her so long soon dissipated. When we returned, Ebonee was sleeping - and the house was spotless, much cleaner than when we left it! ... MORE

Thanks Nina for your lovely review. It was our pleasure to look after the beautiful Ebonee and your lovely home. You were very warm & welcoming and easy to communicate with. Your home was very comfortable and in a great area close to lots of facilities and things to do .Would happily care for ... MORE
Carole and Russ, Could not rate them high enough, they were just like friends and looked after our House, Garden and Little Dog as it was their own. 10 out of 10. Thank you both.
 
OWEN (MERINGANDAN WEST QLD, Jun 2024 - 3 weeks)
Thanks Ross and Jenny for your review. You were very friendly, hospitable and welcoming from our first meeting/communication which made our sit in your lovely home with Missy easy and very enjoyable. Thanks again
I highly recommend Carole and Russ. They sat my house for 10 days. They confidently looked after our little dog who really took to Russ as soon as he met him. Although my little dog was very excited to see me he settled quickly and apart from being a little clingy he was happy and healthy. My home was left like a pin. I can't thank Carole and Russ enough as having them house sit allowed me to have a restful break.

Thanks Carmel It was a pleasure to look after Nigel and your lovely home. Although only there for a short time we got very fond of him and would be happy to look after him again .It was nice to meet you .You were lovely to deal with and gave us clear instructions about things .
Carole and Russ looked after out place for about 2 weeks and we came home to a very clean house, which was much appreciated. We are aslo grateful that they helped our neighbours look after our dog while we were away.
 
LIZ AND JIM (MALENY QLD, Feb 2024 - 1 week 5 nights)
Thanks Liz and Jim for choosing us to look after your lovely house in the great location of Maleny .It was a pleasure to look after your sweet little dog
Russ and Carole were excellent sitters. They came before the sit so we could get acquainted and to see the property - and meet the cat. Communication was very good [except for a blunder on my part] and the house etc were very well cared for and the cat wants to know when they are coming back. No hesitation in recommending them.

Thank you Please let Cuska know we,d be more than happy to come back and see him again
Carol&Russ set new gold standard. Came home to sparkling house & very happy & healthy dog & cat. Felt great trust & peace of mind when leaving my little friends with them.
 
LILIAN (mandurah WA, Oct 2022 - 3 weeks)
Carole and Russ were the perfect house sitters - my house was spotlessly clean when I returned home, my pets were exceptionally well cared for, and they were highly communicative throughout the whole process. Aside from being great house sitters, they are are genuinely lovely and exceptionally likable people. I would absolutely use them again and can't recommend them highly enough. Thanks again Carole and Russ and best of luck with your adventures!!
 
AMANDA (Embleton WA, Sep 2022 - 1 week 3 days)
No rating We have no hesitation in recommending Carole and Russ. They looked after our house and our dogs for the first time in September for 13 days. They left the place spotless and, just as importantly, cared so much about our chihuahuas, Pedro and Baxter. Pedro is 14 and has health problems and Baxter is a rescue dog that we had acquired only a couple of months earlier, so we were naturally anxious that our housesitters would bond with them and take care of them. Not a problem. Russ and Carole ... MORE
