Business Owner, Hospitality & Business Management.
John and I have a wealth of experience with housesitting in Australia and overseas. A large number of our sits are repeat sits, demonstrating that we are honest, reliable and caring. Being homeowners, we can understand your concerns, and that you need trustworthy sitters caring for your property, as well as being proactive and practical.
Our focus ensures that your pets will have great care and plenty of attention while you are away. Your instructions for pet care will be adhered to, and we will happily follow their usual routines and food requirements. We have expertise with many different animals; - dogs, cats, birds, fish, chooks, guinea fowl, tortoises, guinea pigs, horses, and cattle.
We are non-smokers, who are active and healthy, Other interests include; gardening, cooking, travelling, movies, and reading - as well as, a social glass of wine and a cup of coffee!
We both enjoy gardening, so maintaining your gardens and plants is an easy chore for us. Pool care is a pleasure, and we have had loads of experience with pools, both with our own homes and while housesitting.
Being house proud, clean, and tidy is a must for us, and security is a priority. We will treat your property with every respect and with the utmost care. We are competent in all aspects of house management and we can sort out any maintenance issues that can arise while you are away. e.g. sick pets, hot water system failure and flooding.
We are more than happy to talk with you, provide additional references, and answer any questions.

Judi and John were excellent housesitters. Our house and yard were really well looked after. A few minor issues were quickly and efficiently dealt with. It is great to have people who you can have confidence in, when away from home. We would have them house sit for us anytime.
MARG AND PAUL (Lake Barrine QLD, Apr 2023 - 9 weeks)
Although a short sit for Judi & John, they were great & due to their experience we felt very comfortable leaving them to take care of both our home & spoilt older dog!
WENDY ( Samford QLD, Nov 2024 - 5 nights)
Judi and John took great care of our dogs and house while we were on holiday and kept in touch to keep us updated.
We really appreciated them looking after our dogs while we enjoyed a relaxing break.
I would recommend them for housesitting and they are a lovely couple.
Thanks again Judi and John for looking after things while we were away.
CLAIRE (Yungaburra QLD, May 2024 - 1 week 3 nights)
John and Judi are a lovely couple, very capable of house sitting any property. They did a remarkable job under extreme circumstances, having heavy rain 13 days out of their 14 day sit. As you can imagine with German Shepheds and wet weather...?? It was very nice coming home to a clean, tidy house, and very excited dogs. Thank you for an amazing job under terrible circumstances.

Judi and John were Ama img house sitters and looked after our little pooch with such love!!! Oh my goodness and they left such a clean house!!!! Thank you Judi and John!!!
We loved Judi and John the minute we met them. They are trustworthy, reliable and organised to come for a visit before the house sit which was comforting. Judi and John looked after our 2 acre property, dog and chickens really well and we came back to a beautiful clean house, happy animals and sparkling pool.

Rod & Cherie were an absolute delight to sit for in their beautiful tropical corner of Doonan.
They and their two boys were such a lovely family. Their dog Nala was as well behaved and friendly as we have cared for.

MEGAN (Buderim QLD, Dec 2022 - 1 month 1 week)
Judi and John are honest, conscientious, clean housesitters.
Both are nice likable people who can be trusted to look after everything and communicate easily and have a helpful attitude toward the property and animal care.
I had 3 horses and one dog in their care and have been fortunate enough to find them available on two occasions.
Highly recommended.

All went well, House, garden and animals were just as I left them.
Thanks John and Judi, I am happy to have you back any time

Enjoyable housesit that came with great communication.
Nellie and Casper were super to look after - no hassles and good fun. A very interesting regional area and we would certainly housesit there again.
Judi was absolutely amazing! We came home to a beautiful clean house and some lovely little gifts. She is the most thoughtful and kind lady. We appreciated your stay :) Thank you
ALEXIS (Canungra QLD, Apr 2022 - 5 days)
Wow, what amazing home owners and home. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay as A & G were so thoughtful and considerate even though they had just lost their dog.
Thoroughly recommend this sit and I would return in a heartbeat.
Wow! The house and garden on our return was tidier than it had been in years. The animals were loved and well cared for. They had to deal with a little flooding from our local creek. Delt with it and told us on our return. We would certainly have them back again, couldn't recommend them more highly.
RODNEY (Wooloowin QLD, Nov 2021 - 1 month 2 weeks)
Lovely people! Can't recommend Judi enough. The doggo was well looked after and I'm sure they got a giggle out of her! Thanks guys, we will defiantly use you again. Cheers
BARB (Redlynch, Cairns QLD, Jul 2021 - 2 weeks)
Judi and John looked after our one acre property as well as our german shepherd Arnie and our chooks for 3 weeks. We will be forever grateful to Judi and John for the amazing job they did, We were first time users of Aussie House sitters and can honestly say it was the best decision we could have made for having our home and animals cared for while we were away.

Judi and John provided updates on how they were getting on and how Arnie was going along the way. When we came home the house was spotless and they had even managed to bring back to life a few of our dying plants, We would not hesitate to have Judi and John look after our property and pets again in the future. If you are looking for a couple to house sit your place and take careof your pets then look no further!
PHOEBE (Goldsborough QLD, Apr 2021 - 3 Weeks)
Judi did a great job of looking after our house, gardens and cat.
A couple of small issues arose but we quickly communicated and sorted them out. We had confidence in her care and attention.
She arrived before we left, to facilitate the hand-over.
Communication was great.
We would be happy to have Judi housesit for us another time.

BILL (Highgate Hill QLD, Mar 2021 - 1 week 3 days)
Judi took great care of our dog Pippa with regular updates and photos to use on how she was going. She problem solved an issue with our pool and all went well with that. House and garden thoughtfully cared for and lovely touches in our home when we returned. Would recommend Judi and invite her to our place again.
DIANE (Indooroopilly QLD, Feb 2021 - 21 days)
Judi house sat my home and dog for 8 days in October 2020 and she was absolutely wonderful.
As soon as I listed, I was overwhelmed with applications but chose only Judi, purely based on her profile and after our first phone chat, I felt confident she was the right lady for us.

My precious little dog was immediately attracted to her friendly and gentle manner and she proved to be more than I expected. I found Judi to be committed, trustworthy, intelligent with common sense, down to earth and kind. I returned to a clean and tidy home with a happy doggy who was missing Judi for days later.
We would be very fortunate if Judi was available to house sit for us again in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, friendly and caring house sitter.
BARBARA (Caloundra West QLD, Oct 2020 - 8 days)
I felt very confident leaving my pets and home in the care of Judi. She communicated with texts and sent photos assuring me everything was going smoothly.
On my return, the house was clean and tidy. My pets were happy and content. I would recommend Judi unreservedly and would be pleased to have her again to housesit for me.
KERRIE (Norman Park QLD, Sep 2020 - 2 weeks)
It was a pleasure to meet Judi and have her look after our house and, especially, our garden. She tended to all that was required and kept us regularly updated with texts and photographs. We would recommend Judi as a well experienced and confident house sitter who does an excellent job.
LENORE (Gympie QLD, Aug 2020 - 1 month 2 weeks)
So good to have Judi look after our place and the pets. It makes such a big difference when you go away to know everything is in good hands back at home. The place was spotless when we got back.
Thanks Judi. Hope you can stay again.
DAVID AND STEPHANIE (Wooloowin QLD, Jun 2020 - 10 days)
A delightful family with a very organised house and animals. A pleasure to sit their two dogs who are very well behaved and love their walks.
I would be happy to sit again for this family.
Judi has looked after my two cats on two house sits and all went very well.
Communication is excellent and organising the details for the sit was very easy.
MARGIE (Newmarket QLD, Jun 2020 - 8)
Judi was lovely and took amazing care of our home and especially of our little dog, Missy.
Missy looked relaxed and happy when we got home and that was fantastic!
Judi communicated well with us and let us know how things were going during our time away. We would recommend her highly to any future homeowners requiring a dependable housesitter.
MERYL (The Gap QLD, Sep 2019 - 2 and a half weeks)
What a wonderful house sit. Highly recommend this family, the location and an adorable, affectionate little dog, who is no trouble. I am looking forward to my next sit at their house.
Judi is an exceptional house sitter whom I would happily have look after my house & cat again. Most importantly she took great care of my beloved cat providing lots of love and tummy scratches.
I came home to an immaculate house on my (late night) return and she even left me a fresh litre of milk & fresh bread for the morning which was greatly appreciated.

I highly recommend Judi and would love to have her back for our next holiday.
SHEILA (Scarborough QLD, Jul 2019 - 2 weeks)
Judi looked after our property well even though it really is too much for one person on their own. Our two year border collie Chelsea was also very well looked after and we came back to a healthy happy girl. We would recommend Judi to anyone looking for a reliable and caring house sitter.
JANE (Peregian Springs QLD, Mar 2019 - 3 weeks)
Judi was a perfect fit for us and our house. Compedent, obliging and very friendly. She was marvellous with the garden in very harsh conditions (extremely hot and dry) going the extra mile and mulching some of the stressed plants. A crystal clear pool greeted us on our return. And the house was as we left it.
We have no hesitation in recommending Judi as a house sitter. We are disappointed she is not able to sit for our next holiday.
ROSEMAREE (Red Hill QLD, Jan 2019 - 4 weeks)
Judi is a fantastic person to house sit. My pets, garden and house were all very well cared while we were overseas for a month. Judi kept in touch with us regularly with updates and photos of our pets. We would certainly use Judi for house sitting again.
LAUREE (Ashgrove QLD, Nov 2018 - 4 weeks)
It was a pleasure to have Judi house sit for us. Our animals & home were well cared for during her stay. We were very happy with Judi.
KATE (Glenwood QLD, Oct 2018 - 3 days)
Judi looked after our house and pets for three weeks. She was great in sending us updates from time to time by way of photos and texts and we came home to a clean and tidy house. All of our pets were happy and healthy too. I would not hesitate to recommend Judi for house sitting in the future.
LIZE (Bayside - Manly QLD, Aug 2018 - 3 weeks)
Green garden!
Make sure the garden and pot plants are thriving when you get back - get a house sitter.
