On a house-sit right now
Dutch-Australian couple available in Brisbane
39, Retail Store Manager
42, Anti Money Laundering Specialist
We are a Dutch (Hans) Australian (Natasha) couple based in Brisbane.
We met each other in late 2015 in the Netherlands, Europe. Everything moved rapidly from there on. We moved in an apartment together, where we really got to know each other. Although our life in Europe was great, we decided life could be even more fun at the other side of the globe. In September 2018 we migrated to Australia. We travelled for 3 months from WA up to the top end, down to the red centre and up again to the tropics before settling down in Brisbane for 8 months. We absolutely enjoyed Brisbane and the sub-tropical laidback lifestyle it brings. Due to career opportunities we moved to Sydney in August 2019. Sydney has been fast paced living and a lot of fun. Now the opportunity has come forward for us to relocate again, back to Brisbane. From the moment we left Europe the plan has always been to settle down in Brisbane, it fits our needs in life perfectly. Sydney was great and we embrace all the good friends we have made, but the plan was always to return back to Brisbane. We enjoy travelling, camping, hiking, sightseeing and lots of other things, the good life!
We have enjoyed our housesitting adventure so far, and created an amazing profile that holds over 75 excellent reviews. Feedback is very important to achieve a high level of service, and constantly improve the way we care for your pets and provide security for your house, attend your beloved garden and so much more.
We are responsible, organized and tidy people. We have had the pleasure of housesitting with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, ginea pigs and goldfish. Besides giving your pets all the love and care they deserve we provide a service that includes keeping your house tidy and clean, garden work (hedge cutting, lawn mowing, edge cutting, pruning of veggie beds) and pool maintenance (filter cleaning, adding chloride/acid and pool samples testing).
We both love animals, we just love the company and affection they give. We have had one occasion without pets, and it made us feel like we were missing something.
Natasha had many pets back in Australia. Dogs, cats, fish, birds and rabbits. She also house sitted in England and the Netherlands. Natasha worked as a nanny looking after twins and a third child. They had a big house not far from London, with pets and a garden. Her job was to run the household and make sure that everything went perfect.
Besides her recommendations from the UK, we also have recommendations for us together on this website, still growing as we progress. Feel free to roam our reviews and to learn what other people have to say about us. These people have given us the chance to prove we are excellent house sitters. Out of necessity in March 2020 we can also provide proof of good behavior from our rental apartment in Petersham, Sydney.
By housesitting we have had the chance to explore almost every nook and cranny in Brisbane, it's a beautiful laidback city with a welcoming vibe. Sydney is a large city packed with fun and different cultures, and offers a different quality of life. We feel privileged having spent time in both cities.
By housesitting we get to enjoy many different suburbs, meet awesome people and become comfortable with the city. It started out to save money as we look for jobs, then the plan was to rent a house. But after completing one housesit we were hooked, and we discovered this is the way to fast track our goal to save and buy our own house. One day this will all come to an end, when we reach our goal. What we are certain of is that we will also be looking for house sitters to return the favor when we go on a holiday.
This is why we are house sitters, and we love taking care of your home and pets. With our experience and knowledge we have developed over the years, we can provide you with a high level of comfort and service. We aim to provide you a careless holiday or business trip.
Warm regards, Hans and Natasha

Hans and Nat are excellent sitters, we are always super happy to secure their services looking after our very spoil black cat. This is the third time we have used Hans and Nat and we will be happy to use them again. The house and gardens are always pristine upon our return and even more important for us is Master Winne (our cat) isn’t keen to see us as he has been so well looked after I often think he’s disappointed we have returned! Hans and Nat provide regular photos/videos of Master Winne ... MOREHans and Nat are excellent sitters, we are always super happy to secure their services looking after our very spoil black cat.

EMMA (Alderley QLD, Oct 2024 - 2 weeks 5 nights)
This is our second time using Hans and Natasha for house sitting and looking after our Cavoodle and again they were excellent sitters, Our dog was in great hands. They were very responsive and looked after everything as if it was their own and left the place immaculate for our return. They communicated very well and went the extra mile when our trip was delayed and for this we are very grateful. Would highly recommend and hope to use again in future.
KATRINA (Yeerongpilly QLD, Sep 2024 - 3 weeks - 1 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
We couldn't speak more highly of Natasha and Hans and how well they looked after our home and dogs while we were away. House was spotless when we got back, they kept us informed when necessary and our dogs were super happy when we got home. Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a house/pet sitter. Thanks again Hans and Natasha!
KATIE (Jindalee QLD, Jul 2024 - 4 weeks)
This is the second long sit (7 weeks) and feel lucky to have been able to secure Hans & Natasha once again! They’re such a responsible young couple. Hans mainly works from home so it’s ideal if you have a pet that needs company or a feeling of extra security like our little 16 yr old 🥰 They left the house very clean and tidy and also did extra things in the garden and pool area which we just discovered - thank you! The place looked great and so did our little one! We’ll always turn to them ... MOREThis is the second long sit (7 weeks) and feel lucky to have been able to secure Hans & Natasha once again!

Hans and Natasha impressed from the start with regular communication and the opportunity to meet them and introduce them to our highly strung fur baby, Bean, before we left on our trip.

EMMA (Lutwyche QLD, Mar 2024 - 1 month 2 weeks)
Thanks, Natasha and Hans. We came home to a very happy cat, happy houseplants, and a well-looked-after house. Communication was great leading up to and during the stay. 10/10. I'm More than happy to recommend them as great housesitters.
BIANCA (Chapel Hill QLD, Mar 2024 - 3 weeks)
Hans and Tash are the ultimate pet-sitting dream team! From the moment they walked through the door, I knew my furry friend was in the best hands.
Not only did they follow all of my instructions to a T, but they also went above and beyond to ensure my dog felt comfortable and happy in their care. I received regular updates and adorable photos, which put my mind at ease while I was away.
I cannot recommend Hans and Tash highly enough for their professionalism, reliability, and genuine love ... MOREHans and Tash are the ultimate pet-sitting dream team! From the moment they walked through the door, I knew my furry friend was in the best hands.

Would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Thank you Hans and Natasha
Greatly appreciated your help with house sitting and more importantly looking after my two dogs , Teddy and Sonya.
I was able to enjoy my week away knowing that they were well looked after. Thank you to for taking care of my garden too.
I returned to a clean house, well tended garden and two happy dogs. Thank you.
LYN (Newport QLD, Feb 2024 - 1 week)
Hans & Natasha were the loveliest couple and our two dogs loved them right away! Even our super shy cat came out to cuddle with them. The house was also spotless when we returned. Really easy to talk to and super friendly. Would highly recommend to anyone and we would have them back anytime 😊
ANDREA (Nudgee QLD, Jan 2024 - 2 nights)
Hans and Natasha were amazing house - and most importantly - dog sitters 🙂 Our little senior dog has trust issues but bonded with them quite quickly. Especially Hans as he worked from home. They were sending photos and updates a couple of times a week (however often we wanted) and let us know if there were any concerns with the house/pool/ garden.

Natasha and Hans were fantastic at taking care of our 2 furbabies and keeping our house in order. You can really see the love they have for pets, our dogs warmed up to them straight away. They kept our house clean and maintained the gardens throughout their stay.
Would definitely recommend them to anyone that’s after a thorough house/pet sitter.
They got 5 stars from us! 🙂
ANGELA (Capalaba QLD, Nov 2023 - 5 nights)
Great sitters. Looked after our fur babies very well. House was lovely and clean when we returned. We would have Hans and Natasha back any time. They emailed us letting us know how our cats were doing.
Appreciated that very much
Natasha and Hans were great, the home was clean and looked after. Everything looked great, and most importantly, our cats were comfortable with them, even the skittish one, and when we came back they were in great condition. They provided great updates, and were quick to respond when we messaged them.
ROBERT (Moorooka QLD, Oct 2023 - 3 weeks)
Hans and Natasha are a friendly couple and we are very pleased with the care and attention they have shown for our pets and home. They are easy to communicate with and accommodating of our requests. We would happily have them back for future housesits.
HAYLEY (Heritage Park QLD, Sep 2023 - 3 nights)
We were first time users of house sitters and nervous of what to expect. Hans and Natasha calmed those nerves completely! They are two very experienced House sitters with a wonderful friendly and calm approach. They are both very organised, effective communicators and wonderful with pets. Our dog has anxiety issues and can be a handful but Hans and Natasha had no problems at all. They were able to also deal with any issues that arose with the house effectively and efficiently.

ADAM (Bardon QLD, Jul 2023 - 3 weeks)
This couple were so genuine and easy to communicate with. Everything was perfect from when we first met them right up to when we arrived back from our 6 week holiday.
Our dog was well looked after, loved and cared for. Our home was immaculate when we returned. We have even struck up a friendship with them and will catch up with them again for sure! We highly recommend them and will be using them again! Hopefully they will be available next time.🙂

I would have no hesitation in recommending Hans and Natasha as house sitters. They were great to communicate with and looked after our home immaculately.
MICHELLE (Toowong QLD, Mar 2023 - 1 month 1 week)
Super impressive couple who cared for my diabetic schnauzer with confidence. Leaving a dog with special needs requires trust and I was given reassurance when I needed it. My home and my schnauzer were in excellent hands and I couldn't be more grateful. I highly recommend this competent and confident team to care for your home and animals.
MARIANNE (Kedron QLD, Feb 2023 - 2 weeks 6 days)
Hans and Tash are superstar sitters, My place was extremely well kept and Romeo the pug was loved and cared for well. He's senior and they were able to make him very comfortable and medicated as directed. Communication was great, wonderful sitters and I would consider them friends now,
DAVID & KYLIE (Teneriffe QLD, Jan 2023 - 1 week 1 day)
Hans and Natasha kept our house in good order and the pets were just as we left so we were very happy with them. We would be happy to recommend them to others or use them again.
NICK (Greenslopes QLD, Jan 2023 - 5 days)
Hans and natasha did a great job looking after our house, garden and cat. It was lovely to come home to a clean house, tidy garden and happy cat! We'd recommend these guys for any housesitting assignment. Thanks guys for doing such a great job. Stephen & Sophie
STEPHEN (Moorooka, Brisbane QLD, Dec 2022 - 4,5 weeks)
Hans & Natasha were great, I don't think our cats missed us at all and the house was beautifully clean when we returned home. They communicated with us regularly with updates on the furbabies and house giving us peace of mind and allowing us to enjoy our holiday. Highly recommend them.

ELLEN (Sinnamon Park QLD, Aug 2022 - 2.5 weeks)
Hans and Natasha were wonderful! We got thrown a bit of a curveball with sudden surgery on our dog just before we were meant to leave. It was hard to leave him and we knew it wasn't what they had originally signed up for but Hans and Natasha made us feel very reassured that he would be in the safest of hands. We got lots of updates of his recovery and came back to a very happy doggy and a lovely clean home. Thank you so much guys! Chester would love to have you back one day!
JILL (Taringa QLD, Jul 2022 - 3 weeks)
Natalie and Hans were great housesitters - very friendly and easy to talk to. They sent us many messages and even photos of our dogs while we were away, This allowed us to enjoy our holiday knowing the house, garden and pets were in good hands. The house was clean and tidy when we arrived home. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone looking for housesitters!
BELINDA (Brookfield QLD, Jan 2022 - 6 days)
Hans and Natasha looked after our Rottie Rosie and cat Gordon for 5 weeks. It was a relief to know that our pets and home were well looked after while we were away. Rosie can be a bit of a handful being a big boisterous girl but Hans and Natasha were very comfortable with her right from the start as she was with them. We didn't have to worry about her at all. And Gordon can be quite aloof and particular about who he cuddles up to but he warmed up to his new carers very quickly. Our home was ...

TRISH (Wooloowin QLD, Dec 2021 - 1 month 1 week)
We were so lucky to have Hans and Natasha house sit twice for us! We hope to have them back again soon. The puppies were in great hands and we know they were well loved and cared for. It was also nice to know that Hans was working from home so the puppies had a little extra company during the days. Both times the house was left clean and tidy. Highly recommend Hans and Natasha. Thanks guys!
MELISSA (Jamboree Heights QLD, Nov 2021 - 3 days - 1 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
Hans and Natasha were wonderful to work with. From the moment we met them our whole family were comfortable and confident in leaving our puppies and house in their care. They won the puppies over instantly and gave us updates along the way. Hans and Natasha were punctual, clean and tidy - I think they vacuumed even more than me!!! As an added bonus, Hans was working from home so the puppies had company during the days. Would highly recommend Hans and Natasha!

Natasha and Hans were fantastic in looking after our home and our greyhound Valerie while we were away for two and a half weeks. Communication was great and we felt comfortable knowing the place was in the hands of experienced house sitters. We came back to a super tidy home and a happy pup, thank you guys!
STEPHEN (Keperra QLD, Oct 2021 - 2 weeks 4 days)
Hans and Natasha were great from the moment we first got in contact. They communicated well throughout and we felt confident in their abilities and happy to leave them be.
Cajun has been very relaxed which is always a sign of a happy, well cared for dog.
We have no hesitation recommending this lovely couple to anyone looking for someone to look after their most prized possessions and would be more than happy to have them again
SUE (Stafford Heights QLD, Oct 2021 - 2 weeks 1 day)

They are a lovely, caring couple who kept us up to date with photos and information while we were away.

KYLIE (Mitchelton QLD, Sep 2021 - 3 days)
Hans and Natasha were always easy to communicate with, and a joy to have in our home. When our flight was delayed by a day, they graciously stayed another day to watch over our cat Manja. We're very grateful and would be very happy to have them sit for us anytime.
Highly recommended.
LEENA (Ferny Hills QLD, Aug 2021 - 1 week 3 days)
Hans & Natasha are a lovely couple.
A couple of months prior to the house sit we had a chat with them on the phone as they were in Sydney and we live in Brisbane. We enjoyed our chat and without hesitation appointment them as our house sitters.
A couple of weeks prior to our holiday, Hans and Natasha came out for a meet and greet. The puppies loved them and so did we.

Hans & Natasha were the dream house sitters! Mind, courteous and gave our Labrador Benji a lot of love. We had no worries whilst on our holiday as we knew Hans & Natasha were looking after our place perfectly. Would not hesitate to have them re sit in the future
CAITLIN (Griffin QLD, Jul 2021 - 3 weeks)
Hans and Natasha - well, one couple who were readily and easily contactable and obliging. Even though we met only for 5 minutes before I had to leave, they were unflurried and ready to walk in to explore and meet Ms Tilly and the house and the regime. Tilly was happy on my return and that's always a great sign. I'd be most happy to have Hans and Natasha for any period care for my pet and house.

NADIA (Singleton NSW, Jun 2021 - 4 days)
Hans and Natasha have housesit for us more than a half dozen times, from a weekend to 6 weeks. They have become personal friends and stayed with us between housesits when they were short of housesits. They are really wonderful with the animals (3 dogs and a cat), the house, and water the plants. The house is cleaner when we get home. When they arrive the dogs run to greet them happily and do not look at all sad when we leave hauling suitcases. They are absolutely top top housesitters and I ...

THERESE (Engadine NSW, Mar 2021 - 2 weeks 6 days)
Once again Hans and Natasha were outstanding house sitters' for us back in March 21. We would be happy to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable dependent trustworthy couple to look after their pets and house while they are away. We hope you are both doing ok in these Covid19 times guys.

We were so lucky to have them look after our house and out two fur babies. Highly recommend this lovely young couple if you need pet sitters.
Thanks again Natasha & Hans xxx
DEBORAH (Caringbah South NSW, Feb 2021 - 1 week 5 days)
This was our 2nd sit with Hans & Natasha; we actually worked our travel dates to fit in with their availability to have the reassurance of their care for our boys. Communication was prompt and consistent, and once again we returned to 2 very content dogs and an immaculate house.
We highly recommend securing them to look after your house and/or pets if you are fortunate to do so. Thank you again guys and I don't doubt we'll see you again soon!

Very spoilt cats indeed! Thank you again Natasha and Hans for the best house sit (our first with Aussie House Sitters) We hope you'll come back to visit again one day!

We have been lucky that Natasha and Hans have housesat for us several times. The puppies run eagerly to them when they come through the door - we know the puppies love them and will be well cared for. Hans mowed the lawn for us this time!! Which was much appreciated. I feel very comfortable going on holiday with Hans and Natasha housesitting. You can be assured your pets are in good hands if they are sitting for you.

Hans and Natasha are a lovely couple who looked after our cat Dasha and the house beautifully. They came over to meet us and Dasha before the house sit. I could see immediately that they would be lovely with Dasha and would respect our house.

MOREHans and Natasha are a lovely couple who looked after our cat Dasha and the house beautifully. They came over to meet us and Dasha before the house sit. I could see immediately that they would be lovely with Dasha and would respect our house.
Throughout the sit we got gorgeous photos and videos of Dasha and good communications about parcels, planned bbqs etc.
The house and garden were spotless on our return - I had nothing to do - except unpack. Thanks guys, we will definitely be lucky to book you for our next holiday.
MARTINA (Fairlight NSW, Nov 2020 - 2 weeks)
Hans and Natasha are very approachable & easy tocommunicate with. They cared for our elderly staffie & he was sad to see Hans go. As Hans works from home he was able to give Scooter the attention he craves. Natasha kept our home spotless & was a joy to return home. I would highly reccommend them for their care of needy pets.
PAM (Gladesville NSW, Nov 2020 - 7 days)
A big thanks to Hans and Natasha for the great house sitting job they did. We came home to a very happy cat and a clean, well looked after house . We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this lovely couple and would gladly use them again.
Hans and Natasha were wonderful sitters. Communication up front and throughout was clear and friendly and we received a few photos to show how well they and the cats were getting on!
The house was left impeccably clean and tidy and we would have no hesitation in having them sit for us again and would highly recommend them to anyone else.
NEIL (West Pennant Hills NSW, Oct 2020 - 5 days)
Hans & Natasha were amazing sitters!
They provided excellent care to our 2 fur babies and Fish the axolotl.
Regular updates were provided and our kitties seem to have really loved having some new humans to spoil them.
Our apartment was well taken care of, no issues and was left clean and extremely tidy.
Highly recommend Hans & Natasha for your next house sit!
FAY (Croydon Park NSW, Oct 2020 - 2 days)
Cannot speak highly enough of Hans & Natasha. I was impressed from the off with their prompt communication & upon meeting them further reassured our French bulldogs were in good, experienced hands.
They were receptive and respectful of our house rules and we came back to an immaculate house and 2 very content dogs.
If you are fortunate enough to have them available to sit for you, you will be not be disappointed. We will be contacting them when we next go away without a doubt.
NATALIE (Eastlakes NSW, Oct 2020 - 4 days - 2 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
I highly recommend Natasha and Hans - they are a lovely, friendly couple. The first time we met them, one of our cats (Button) jumped on to Hans' knee and snuggled right in! It was at that point we knew we could trust them with our fur-babies and we were not wrong!
Natasha and Hans sent us regular updates and photos and let me know that our nervous cat, Sprout, was doing well. In a week he'd gone from hiding under the bed to sleeping on the bed with them!

When we got back the house was absolutely immaculate and the cats were so happy and relaxed.
I cannot recommend Natasha and Hans enough. We would love to have them look after our boys again.
SARAH (Five Dock NSW, Oct 2020 - 1 week 1 day)
I highly recommend Hans and Natasha as house sitters. They communicate well, are warm and friendly, and took fantastic care of our home and kitten. We also arrived home to clean house and a sparkling clean stove top, which was a lovely surprise. You can trust them completely. And I will look to use them again in the future.
LYNDAL (NARRAWEENA NSW, Oct 2020 - 5 days)
Natasha and Hans were great house sitters. Our dogs are big and excitable, but they loved Natasha and Hans.
They communicated well, and really looked after our place while we were gone and left it clean and tidy. We would definitely book them again.
ANGIE (Tempe NSW, Sep 2020 - 1 week 1 day)
JACKPOT !
From the moment we met Hans and Natasha our feeling was they were the right people to care for our two dogs and look after our home. We had many offers from Sitters so it was not easy to decide . We hit the jackpot with them.
During our time away we made contact several times and although we missed our dogs Norman and Millie , it became apparent Hans and Natasha had bonded with our dogs .
On return home we found our home just as we had left it . More importantly for us Norman ... MOREJACKPOT !

David and I have plans to go away again in the not too distant future and Hans and Natasha are on speed dial as we work less and travel more.
JENNIFER (Castle Hill NSW, Aug 2020 - 7 weeks)
Natasha and Hans were wonderful sitters for us. They were reliable, easy to work with, and lovely. Best of all, we came home to our darling dogs who had obviously been well looked after. We would certainly be happy to have them sit for us again.
LINDA (Forestville NSW, Aug 2020 - 1 week)
We are grateful Hans and Natasha were able to housesit for us. We met them before the sit and immediately liked them. We could tell from their interactions with the animals (3 dogs and a cat) that they were good with animals and our pets clearly became fond of them quickly. While we were away they kept up updated with how the animals were and sent photos.

JANET (Bankstown NSW, Jul 2020 - 1 month - 3 of 3 endorsements from this owner )
Natasha and Hans are a friendly, responsible and reliable couple. They came to meet us and see the house before the sit and we felt confident leaving our home in their hands. It was a pleasure to come home to a freshly cleaned, neat and tidy house with everything in place. We have no pets but my husband has some precious plants and these all survived. Natasha is lovely to deal with and replies quickly to messages and emails. I would recommend them as house sitters.
DEBBIE (Engadine NSW, Jan 2020 - 1 month 3 weeks)
Thanks Natasha and Hans once again . House was left clean and tidy and Tillie seemed healthy and happy despite the hot weather during the week .
ROSALIE (Epping NSW, Jan 2020 - 1 week - 1 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
We couldn't have asked for more. Hans and Natasha were professional and friendly from first contact. They have a genuine love of animals and we were never worried about their having our precious pooch in their care! They are well accustomed to minding homes and I would say they have had some tougher gigs than this one, but still come out shining. I highly recommend them as the house minding power couple!
COLIN (Hurlstone Park NSW, Dec 2019 - 3 weeks)

They were great, were super easy to talk to and organise times with. Once we realised we had to be at the airport super early they agreed to come sit a day early, which was great.

Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a house sitter, if they are free next time we need a house sitter they will be our first point of call.
DANE (VOYAGER POINT (NSW) NSW, Dec 2019 - 6 days)
Hans and Natasha are the ultimate housesitters ! We feel very lucky to have found them. Our little Westie Muffin immediately took to them at the meet and greet - I could tell she liked them by the way she sat on Han's feet at every opportunity :-) We felt totally at ease going on holiday leaving our home and Muffin in their extremely capable hands.
The house was spick and span at the end of the sit, and Muffin was one very happy little dog.
Can I give them 6 stars ?
Would love to have them ... MOREHans and Natasha are the ultimate housesitters ! We feel very lucky to have found them.

Natasha and Hans were amazing!
Above all, they were fantastic with our two cats, who are pretty shy around most people. After a few days they were getting pats on the couch (with a little patience and a few cat treats). They also left the house super clean which was such a nice feeling getting back from holiday

OSCAR (Alexandria NSW, Oct 2019 - 1 week 1 day)
We were really lucky to have Natasha and Hans as our pet sitters during our holidays. The guys are really friendly and communicative and they took great care of our fur babies, not to mention leaving the house in a perfect state.
We can definitely recommend them for your house sitting needs :)
Thanks again guys!

Dear Hans and Natasha, I don't think there are words to describe the quality of your sitting. This was a totally new experience for us and of course, being all of us strangers to each other, we had our concerns. All of these started fading from the initial phone and FaceTime contact. This is such a loving and caring couple! Our fur babies were taken care and loved as if it was us (priceless and I will be forever grateful). And the house... it's like we were never gone.

This is such a loving and caring couple! Our fur babies were taken care and loved as if it was us (priceless and I will be forever grateful). And the house... it's like we were never gone. They literally made it their own and I could never consider anyone else for looking after our home. I had made up my mind to get ready for bed sheets change and a bit of cleaning after 20 or so hours flying. The lovely Natasha surprised me having taken care of this so our arrival could be a bit less hectic. This kind of detail show how caring they are of the place they stay at. Looking forward to see them again!!! Thank you guys again, for everything you did for us. The Corvalan Sotomayor family.
Natasha and Hans were perfect house sitters. Our home was just as we left it and our labrador Tillie, looked healthy and happy when we returned .
We would definitely recommend this couple .
Thanks Hans and Natasha

Natasha and Hans took care of our fur-babies - 3 kitties and 3 doggies -.wonderfully well . They sent us daily updates with lots of photos and videos. And they left our home spotlessly clean. Thank you so much for looking after our babies!!
SUNDEEP (Chatswood NSW, Aug 2019 - 4 weeks)
Hans & Natasha were great, they provided me updates on Kiwi. The house was spotless when we got home. We would definitely have them again and recommend them to anyone wanting their pets looked after while they are away.
SARAH (Dee Why NSW, Aug 2019 - 1 week)
Hans and Natasha are a lovely couple that took great care of our 2 dogs while we were interstate. Both are very experienced with animals and out pups took to them instantly. House was very neat and tidy when we got home. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable sitter. Would happily have them sit for us in the future
REBECCA (Guildford NSW, Aug 2019 - 1 week 2 days)
Natasha and Hans did everything that was required and more. They're a great couple, easy to get along with and happy to oblige. They communicated often to let us know how things were going. The house and garden were left in great condition. We would highly recommend Hans & Natasha as house sitters and would readily ask for them again. Thank you!
GLENN (Newport QLD, Apr 2019 - 4 months)
Hans & Natasha were fantastic at looking after our house and cats.
The house was in great condition.
The cats had clearly been cared for and spoilt.
Communication was great.
Thanks Hans & Natasha - welcome back any time
LUKE & PIP (Kenmore QLD, Apr 2019 - 4 days)
House pretty well ship-shape when I returned after regular updates while I was away Most importantly, the cats had been well cared for - even spoiled I think. Hans and Natasha . a lovely young couple, honest and reliable and I am hopeful that they will undertake another 'sit' in the future.
GLENNYS (Forest Lake QLD, Mar 2019 - 4 weeks)
Nice friendly young couple. Our dog Astro loved them and they took great care of him. I would highly recommend them and hope they will sit for us again sometime.
PHIL (Clontarf QLD, Mar 2019 - 4 days)
Natasha and Hans looked after our three dogs and house for three and half weeks. We couldn't of had better house sitters, when we got home the dogs were very happy and the house was clean.
We would gladly have Natasha and Hans look after our house and dogs again.
They communicated with us regularly during the house sit.
NERIDA (Mount Crosby QLD, Feb 2019 - 3 weeks)
Natasha and Hans took great care of my house, hounds fish and garden. They were very respectful of my home and animals even taking time to learn how to clean my hounds teeth like I do as Natasha saw me doing it before I left. (not my expectation for house sitters) Side note here - greyhounds have lousy teeth.
Beds were made, floors cleaned and house tidy as.
Thanks Natasha and Hans - good luck with your endeavours. You are welcome back
LEA (Meadowbrook QLD, Feb 2019 - 1 week)
Thanks to Hans and Natasha for looking after our animals and managing our little airbnb micro-enterprise for us while we were away. The house was clean when we returned and our little dog who frets without TLC was obviously very happy and content when we returned home. We remunerated them for their extra duties (airbnb) on top of normal house sitting responsibilities, as required by the Aussie House Sitters policy. We would happliy engage them to be house sitters again.
DUNCAN (Woolloongabba QLD, Jan 2019 - 1 week 5 days)
Natasha and Hans were friendly, polite and showed great interest in looking after our two Sharpei dogs and our home....we came back to a clean well looked after house with happy dogs to greet us.. thank you for all your efforts we really appreciate it and would be happy to have you back again..
MARISA (Currumbin QLD, Jan 2019 - 6 days)
Natasha and Hans were really friendly and I felt comfortable leaving my pets and home in their care. The house was neat on our return and all the pets were happy. They even helped out with my bathroom reno a little which was sweet and unexpected. I would recommend using them for your pet sitting needs.
CHRISTINE (Holland Park QLD, Jan 2019 - 4 days)
Hans and Natasha are a lovely, young couple and we were really pleased with the way they cared for our house and pets whilst we were away, over Xmas 2018 and New Year.

They were very accommodating and happy to arrive the day before we left so that we could get to know them, and introduce the pets to them. They were confident around our 2 dogs and 1 cat and demonstrated experience with the dogs - and whilst we were away, they gave us updates on how they were all doing. We came home after a very long flight to find a nice clean house (they had swept and mopped our floors, as we requested in our house sit guide) which was great to come home to! They are a very contentious and reliable couple, so I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others for house and pet sitting!
SHONA & NICK (Sherwood QLD, Dec 2018 - 3 weeks)
Hans & Natasha were great sitters. Their communication with us was great before and after the sit. Our animals were all happy and content with them and I felt content leaving them. They were friendly, easy to get along with and very respectful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others and I wish them all the very best in their future endeavours and travels. .

Happy you!
With a house sitter looking after your pets, house and garden - you can really relax. Happy days.
Couple
Hans and Natasha exceeded our expectations. We were a little nervous using this site to begin with but after meeting these guys, and having them care for our home and dogs, all fears disappeared. Home was immaculate when we returned, dogs were well loved and cared for and a true bond was evident, proving to us that all our requests had been met. Thanks guys for giving us peace of mind...we would recommend this awesome couple to anyone, we will use them again and will stay in contact for ... MORE
Hans and Tash did a great job again.
Would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.
We could not have asked for better sitters. Hans and Natasha are a lovely couple. The cat was happy and everything was neat and tidy.
Hans and Natasha are very approachable & easy tocommunicate with. They cared for our elderly staffie & he was sad to see Hans go. As Hans works from home he was able to give Scooter the attention he craves. Natasha kept our home spotless & was a joy to return home. I would highly reccommend them for their care of needy pets.
