Katie & Bob

Hi there!

We are Katie and Bob, and we are from New Zealand. We moved to Melbourne two years ago to explore and get some new experiences. We started housesitting on arrival and haven't looked back! We are both professional engineers, working full time, but we have the flexibility to work from home, to make your pets time away from you as comfortable as possible.

For the past two years we have been housesitting throughout various areas of Melbourne (with a few housesits in other states). We have looked after a variety of dogs and cats (and fish), and we understand that all pets have their different quirks and personalities! We are very adaptable to suit each pet (and pet parent)'s needs. We are a quietly social couple who love the outdoors, so when we are dogsitting, we love going to the local parks and /or beaches and lakes. Additionally, we have looked after many homes with indoor plants, gardens, and pools, so we have a lot of experience! We have successfully completed over 30 housesits so far, and we love the opportunity to meet new people and care for their furry friends!

We are a very tidy and respectful couple, and know how to care for a property, as we own our own home in New Zealand. We love looth cats and dogs, and we really enjoy having some company in the form of a furry friend. We go above and beyond to look after your pets, and look after them as if they were our own. Happy to provide references on request (otherwise look on our reviews page). Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks, Katie & Bob
