Emma & Courtney

Hi there!

We’re Emma and Courtney, a couple offering pet and house sitting services in Melbourne. We've been fortunate enough to do this full-time for a few months now, and it's been such a rewarding journey!

As dedicated and reliable house sitters, we take pride in providing a clean and caring environment for your pets and home. Our goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, ensuring your pets are happy and your home is well looked after. 😊

Our experience covers a wide range of animals, including rescue pets, different dog breeds, kittens, and cats. We’re always happy to discuss any specific requirements and can keep you updated as often as you'd like.

Emma is a teacher, and Courtney works in customer service with a flexible schedule, allowing her to work from home depending on her schedule. This means one of us is usually around to keep your pets company and your home secure.

A little more about us: We’ve been living in Australia since February, having moved from New Zealand. We love cooking and are real homebodies, so we’re more than happy to spend time at home taking care of everything while you're away.

If you think we’d be a great match for your house and pet sitting needs, feel free to reach out! We’d love to chat and arrange a meet and greet.

We had Courtney and Emma look after our house and much spoilt dog for three weeks in November. They were lovely people who made an effort to be friendly with the neighbours and kept the house and property in a tidy condition for the duration of their stay. Our dog also took a shine to them and genuinely enjoyed their company, and she can often be snobby and uncomfortable around strangers. They walked her daily, took her to the beach and for drives in the car, and also brushed and bathed her regularly. They really made an effort to keep her happy and in her usual routine. We also loved the daily picture updates! We would recommend Courtney and Emma to anyone else needing a house and/or dog sitter, and would definitely have them come and stay again.

We had Emma and Courtney stay at our house for a week these school holidays. We especially wanted someone to be home with our three very precious fur babies, our three very spoilt pugs. They are both very friendly and caring people, who looked after our home and our three pugs very well indeed. They also knew we look after our 92 year old neighbour and they even went to her house to collect her rubbish bins and to put them back when they had been emptied. For this we were extremely grateful! One of our pugs needed daily medication and they both ensured that he had his medication daily. They made a special effort to keep the pugs in their normal daily routine and also sat outside with them every day, even though Melbourne was bitterly cold. We loved getting photos of the pugs every day as well as daily updates. We got home to a very clean home, where everything was well looked after. We would certainly recommend both of them to anyone looking for a house and pet sitter.
