ENJOY YOURSELVES, EVERYTHING IS IN SAFE HANDS

55, Massage Therapist

You can go away and enjoy your holiday/ adventure knowing that everything (including your property, pets and plants even your business admin if required) is in safe and experienced hands when I am taking care of things!

I specialise in Luxury Home Sittings.

Naturally, I am all the things that you need in a house sitter including; super reliable and responsible, honest, clean and experienced, with impeccable references available. But I bring much more than this to the housesitting experience to make sure that you have peace of mind and know that everything at home is well taken care of.
I am also:

-An animal lover - I will have a love affair with your pets. Inclusive of Dogs, Cats, Chooks, Ducks, Rats, Goats, Sheep, Cows, Horses and everything in between - they will be in super good hands. My flexible working hours mean that I have plenty of time to spend loving them and looking after them. I will even make WhatsApp calls / videos so you may stay in touch with your beloved's.

-All photos of animals on profile are from previous house sitting assignments.

-Mature and considerate so there won't be any Facebook parties (or parties of any kind) when I'm looking after your place.

-Great with plants - both indoor and outdoor. I may need a lesson on how to use a ride on mower, but willing to learn, how hard can it be. I can also clean a pool.

-Take instructions easily and follow house rules to the letter.

-Being a Virgo everything will be cleaner and in better order than when you left it.

-Good with admin - If you have a business you need to keep running I can assist with that too.

-Happy to meet and catch up for a coffee so you can get to know who will be looking after your precious home and pets before you go. Can even do a Skype/Zoom call interview if outside of Sydney area.

-Easy-going and flexible - so if you are not sure how long you are going to be away this is fine with me. I am able to commit to what you need.

-I do have my areas of choice, but you can always contact me if you out of my chosen areas as I am flexible.

I look forward to hearing from you.

In Gratitude Taranga

We were so impressed with Taranga, she was just amazing with our dogs, she left the house super tidy and was very communicative through the process. We can highly recommend her to anyone wanting top quality care for their beloved pets and home. We have found the perfect housesitter and will most definitely be engaging her again. She’s also a lovely human, thanks Taranga!
 
LEANNE (Bonville NSW, Apr 2024 - 1 week)
Taranga is obviously an experienced sitter, and I would recommend her. She communicated well from answering the ad through to my return home. My kittens were well looked after & I received at least daily updates and videos of them playing and interacting with her. Taranga’s genuine care for them was obvious & she took time to get to know them before I left
 
KIRSTEN (Centennial Park NSW, May 2024 - 1 week 6 nights)
We could not recommend Taranga enough. Our Cat, Peta, received a lot of love, and the house was immaculate on our return. There were always lots of lovely pics and commentary, We would be happy to recommend Taranga. Thanks again!!
 
DAVE (Bondi Junction NSW, Apr 2024 - 1 week 4 nights)
I was very happy with my house sitter Taranga, She left my unit spotless and my cat Slinky was well feed and very much loved. I had a few indoor plants that were still alive upon my return. Slinky appeared to be relaxed after my time away, I would highly recommend her services to anybody looking for a great house sitter
 
MIA (Redfern NSW, Jan 2024 - 6 nights)
Taranga did a great job looking after Colin. The house was perfect when we returned and communication with Taranga was easy and very thorough.
 
JUDE (Osborne Park NSW, Dec 2023 - 2 weeks 6 nights)
Taranga is a total gem. A highly capable & competent woman, we knew from first contact that she was going to be the perfect fit for our home and doggos. Communication was fast & simple. She kept us fully updated whilst we were away & the house was immaculate when we got home. Most importantly the puppies were relaxed & happy & had clearly fallen in love with Taranga in our absence. Our black lab Boof developed a hip injury our first week away & was clearly in some considerable pain. ... MORE
 
DAVID (Arakoon NSW, Aug 2023 - 2 weeks 3 nights)
Taranga is an excellent house sitter who I could not recommend highly enough. Our little westie adores her and it is great to know that we can go away and have her in such safe hands. She also looked after our chooks, fish, vegie garden and house beautifully. She is proactive and great at communication. 5 stars!
 
ALAN (Lane Cove NSW, Jun 2023 - 4 weeks - 1 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
Taranga is SUCH a find if you're lucky enough to book her as your house sitter. She stepped in at short notice and took everything in her stride. Her communication is absolutely exceptional and we enjoyed her regular videos and photos which helped us to relax while away as we could see how happy the animals looked. She is very tidy and we came home to a clean and organised home and the plants are looking terrific. Taranga is a life saver and we'd love to have her in our home again.
 
AVRIL (Carlton NSW, Mar 2023 - 6 days)
What a gem. I couldn't be more happy, pleased or thankful that Taranga accepted the position of house/pet carer. Horses, poultry, sheep, goat, cats not to mention two over energetic dogs. Taranga handled everything with calm efficiency. Can't recommend enough and hope she will be available next time we want time out. Thank you Taranga.
 
FAYE (Willawarrin NSW, Oct 2022 - 2 weeks)
I am very happy to write this review for Taranga as she did an awesome job looking after our house and two cats while we were away. Taranga was willing to come over before we left to meet us and the cats and to go over what would need to be done while we were away. We were able to leave knowing she had a good grasp on everything already and had met the cats and knew what to expect. The family enjoyed her video updates and it was very reassuring to see our very nervous cat had taken to her and ... MORE
 
SUZIE (Wahroonga NSW, Sep 2022 - 2 weeks 1 day)
Taranga is an excellent communicatore and sent us lots of lovely photos and Videos of walking with our dogs and playing with Milo the cat. We felt very confident she did a great job and the house was very clean when we returned. We would highly reccomend Taranga to anyone needing a caring sitter who loves animals.
 
GRAHAM (Caringbah South NSW, Aug 2022 - 3 days)
Taranga is a fantastic house sitter who I couldn't recommend highly enough. She is great at communication and sent us daily updates on how our dog and chooks were going which the kids absolutely loved. She took great care of the house and was very conscientious. She even made sure we had milk and cereal for us when we got back. Five stars all around for Taranga
 
ALAN (Lane Cove NSW, Jul 2022 - 2 weeks 2 days - 2 of 2 endorsements from this owner )
Taranga house sat for us for a period of 2 weeks while we were away on holiday. She took great care of our 8yr old bishoodle and 2 year old cat. We loved receiving our daily videos and photos via Whatsapp. It was clear to us that our pets were besotted with Taranga and were blissfully happy. We found communication with Taranga to to be easy and would have no hesitation to recommend her as a house sitter. We came home to a beautifully clean home and were very appreciative that we had a stress ... MORE
 
MICHELLE (Wentworth Falls NSW, Apr 2022 - 2 weeks 2 days)
Taranga did a wonderful job looking after our house and kitten. She is honest and reliable; most importantly, she honoured her commitment to do the house-sit and turned up at the agreed time for hand-over. She kept in touch with us daily and looked after the house very well (everything was left neat and tidy and back where it belonged). Our kitten was kept safe and well looked after. I would not hesitate to recommend Taranga and would be very happy to have her house-sit for us again in future ... MORE
 
GAIL (Mosman NSW, Mar 2022 - 3 days)
What a pleasure it was to have Taranga looking after our pets and home. From our initial meeting we knew that they would be in safe, capable hands. Communication was excellent culminating in an amazing compilation video story of Taranga's stay, which was a very special touch. We would have no hesitation in recommending Taranga and will keep her in our contacts for future house sits. Thank you so much Taranga!
 
LINDSAY (St Ives NSW, Jan 2022 - 4 days)
Taranga sat for us over Christmas 2021 and New Years. Absolutely lovely and caring sitter who took care of our rescue dog Ruby. We came home to a pristine house and very content, happy and relaxed Pet. .She is generally a little standoffish with new people but was happy to interact right away with Taranga, she is simply fantastic!! So pleasant and friendly, even our neighbor said Taranga was wonderful. Highly recommend sitter. Honest, caring and so friendly. Amazing with pets. She even ... MORE
 
MANDY (Gymea NSW, Dec 2021 - 5 days)
Taranga was awsome! She took great care of my cat Nala and my cat grew to like her very quickly. She communicated well and sent lots of photos/videos of my cat during her stay which was great as it made me feel less worried. She also left the place very clean and tidy. Overall I would highly recommend her for any house-sitting jobs
 
ABIR (Lakemba NSW, Nov 2021 - 2 days)
Taranga took great care of my cat Raymond and she left the house in a very clean and tidy condition. She was easy to communicate with and kept me up to date with Raymond's antics. Taranga was happy to come a day early to meet Raymond and get to know his routine, and she was helpful in regard to this being my first time using a house sitter. I have no hesitation in recommending her to others. She did a fabulous job.
 
CAROL (Quaama NSW, May 2021 - 1 week)
Taranga looked after my lovely 13yo Labrador Bailey so well, photo updates daily and I could see how happy my fur baby was. She did a wonderful job of taking care of our home and communication was fantastic. I would recommend Taranga to anyone.
 
JANE (Auburn NSW, Mar 2021 - 5 days)
Our elderly dogs, Roy & Ruby, and house were well cared while we were away. Everything was in great order on our return. Communication, with pictures, with us while we were away was very welcomed Roy & Ruby were very happy and cared for. Roy especially missed Taranga after she left . Would recommend for any future housesitting. Bob & Chris
 
BOB & CHRIS (Maryland NSW, Feb 2021 - 5 days)
No rating What a delightful house sitter, a cat whisperer to boot. Taranga took care of our 3 cats and household as if it were her own. She kept in contact regularly and sent many pictures of the pussies and even a video when it started to rain. House was left spotless, plants all watered, certainly a fabulous house sitter!!
