Hi there,
We joined the Aussie House Sitters site when we were travelling around Australia in 2016/17. We did several house sits and really enjoyed them.
We are now waiting for our new home to built in the country, so find ourselves living in our caravan again. We are available for house sits for the next 6 - 12 months. We will both be working so need it to be in the Rockingham and surrounding areas.
We absolutely love animals and are particularly fond of dogs. We love taking long walks in the bush or on the beach. We would love your dog like we love our own. I like gardening and my husband is also very handy and can fix just about anything!
We often look after our family and friends dogs when they go on holidays. Our dog Reggie, a whippet, is social, a little shy but friendly. He is 4 years old - mostly sleeping 22 hours a day. He can stay with my family if you do not want him to housesit as well. :-)
We will need space to park our 21ft van and can live in that, or your home, if you prefer. We also can store our caravan with family if you don't have room.
We both have police clearances and character/work references.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Catherine and Chris Marwood

I am so impressed with Cath and Chris at Aussie Housesitters. They took such good care of our house and 2 fur babies that I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone considering housesitters. My dogs needed medications and specialised feeding and they were well and happy when we arrived home so they were obviously looked after very well. We are so pleased that the house and garden were in the same clean and tidy condition as we left it. As we are new at having our house sat for ... MORE

This was the first time I had used Aussie House Sitters and I feel incredibly lucky to have had Cath and Chris look after my home and animals. From the first time we met I knew that I had made the right choice. I returned home to a lovely clean home and happy pets. Chris had even fixed the sliding door runners and Cath had replaced a rose bush and done some gardening! Nothing was too much trouble and going away knowing the house and animals were in good hands was a great feeling. Highly ... MORE

What a lovely experience. Thank you so much for looking after our house and pets. The house was impeccable upon our return. You went over and above our expectations, even fixing our flush lol. The time and effort you put into getting to know our beloved Butch before the house sit even started was so appreciated. And your kindness when he passed just before we left. Do not hesitate to have your home looked after by Cath & Chris.

Cath and Chris were wonderful house sitters for the 6 weeks we were away. They looked after our fur-babies so well (better then us I think) I don't think they wanted us to come home. Cath communicated with us weekly with photo updates, even making our Frankie girl a pup-cake for her bday. My house plants have never looked so good and even came back to herbs growing in my garden. As soon as I met Cath, she had a beautiful personality and knew she (and Chris) would be perfect. We ... MORE

No rating Cath and Chris were the perfect house sitters. We left them to care for our home and our dog and not once in the 6 weeks did I ever have to worry about home. They are a lovely couple and looked after our home as if their own. They sent us regular updates on all the adventures they were taking our dog on, and to top it off we arrived back to a spotless house. We would not hesitate to recommend Cath and Chris.
