Hi! My name's Jacinta and it is with 100% confidence that I can assure you that your pet/s will be in great hands while you're away..
I love to travel for sits and am fine with most locations.
I have been around a variety animals most of my life - majority have been rescues.
I am very respectful of the spaces I am in and will leave your house spotless. I am a calm and quiet person.
I spend my time studying as i'm planning to start my own pet-sitting business, walking, drawing, painting, cooking, gardening, yoga, and doing sits.
If you have doggies, they can join me on daily walks or runs.
I will ensure your pets are given loads of enrichment activities, and they can be comforted by my presence in your home.
***Booking Info***

- I love lists... Please do not hesitate to write up the daily ins-and-outs of your loved one/s routine.
Thanks for viewing my profile.
I look forward to hearing from you◖⚆ᴥ⚆◗

On top of being great with the dogs, Cindy is exceptionally clean. The house was immaculate when I got back- better than before I left, and she even mowed the lawn and weeded the garden. Im actually thinking of asking her to move in permanently
Cindy really went above and beyond for us, and we are so grateful. Thanks again Cindy ⭐️
JILL (Tighes Hill NSW, May 2021 - 5 days)
Jacinta agreed to do a last-minute sit for us (despite travel being involved for her) and even agreed to extend by an extra night on extremely short notice.
Not only this, she took excellent care of our dogs and communicated to a high standard throughout, sending us pictures of them so that we could rest assured our dogs were in good hands and enjoy our trip.

When we returned home, Jacinta had gone the extra mile by remaking our bed and washing/hanging out the linen she had used. We were grateful for this, as the last thing you feel like doing is making a bed and doing a load of laundry.
We highly recommend Jacinta and would have no hesitation in having her sit for us again.
Thanks again, Jacinta! We are extremely appreciative :)
JACOB (Hamilton NSW, Nov 2024 - 2 nights)
Jacinta was a wonderful housesitter. She left the house even cleaner than she found it, was very communicative and did a fantastic job of caring for our cat and plants.
I would happily have Jacinta in my home again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, caring and conscientious housesitter!
LAURA (Wollstonecraft NSW, Sep 2024 - 3 weeks)
Such a lovely clean lady! Loved having her look after our puppies!!!! Thank you!
ELLA (Five Dock NSW, Jun 2024 - 3 nights)
Jacinta was an excellent house and pet sitter! She took wonderful care of my dog and my home and was always communicating with me. She left the house spotless and I would have her sit again in an instant.
JENNYKATE (Newtown NSW, Jun 2024 - 3 nights)
We are so lucky to have found Jacinta. Such a lovely and calming soul who Chad warmed to straight away. Jacinta was great with communication and it was so easy to arrange her stay. I was very comfortable leaving Chad and the apartment in her care. Jacinta was very respectful about what differing needs each owner may need, and happy to support any requests if I had any. I returned home to a very content Chad, and a beautiful clean apartment complete with clean sheets (a real treat). I’m so glad ... MOREWe are so lucky to have found Jacinta.

LISH (Cronulla NSW, May 2024 - 3 nights)
Cindy was a dream! She took care of our home and pets like they were her own. Reliable, responsive, accommodating and a pleasure to deal with. This was our first time using Aussie Housesitters and we were lucky to srtrike gold the first time around. Thanks Cindy 😊
TAMI (Chatswood NSW, Apr 2024 - 6 nights)
Jacinta is an amazing house and pet sitter! She took super great care of my cat and my house while I was away for a week on holiday. She is SUPER clean. I think she left my house cleaner than I left it and went above and beyond by washing all the linens. Jacinta is also a great communicator; she sent me daily photos and videos of Lucy. I would be happy to have Jacinta back any time!
SHERRY (Surry Hills NSW, Mar 2024 - 1 week 1 night)
Jacinta looked after our 3 year old Cavoodle and 5 year old cat. Both were well looked after for 6 nights.
Jacinta kept in contact throughout the time we were away and sent lots of pics. She also left the house immaculate for our return.
Thanks Jacinta.
NAOMI (Narraweena NSW, Feb 2024 - 6 nights)
Cindy was a great house sitter. Our dog loved her, left the house extremely tidy and even mowed the lawn before we got back from holiday. I highly recommend her and will contact her again when we next go away.
BRETT (Carrington NSW, Feb 2024 - 2 weeks 1 night)
Jacinta (Cindy) was an absolute dream of a house sitter for us during a two week stay over Christmas, looking after both our house and our elderly cat.
As soon as we met I knew she would suit the vibe not only of our house but also our neighbourhood, which is very close knit. She stayed in contact while we were interstate and kept us updated, but also struck a fine balance with allowing us to enjoy our holiday without interruptions.

We really appreciated Cindy's care and attention during our time away, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her for any future house sits. She is a most unobtrusive guest who gives her upmost to caring for the space and much loved pets. Thank you Cindy!
GEMMA (Forest Lodge NSW, Dec 2023 - 2 weeks)
Cindy looked after our 2 cats in October 23 for 3 weeks and she was fabulous!
She came to stay while we were away and I don’t even think my kitties knew I was gone. They were pampered to their usual liking with regular updates and pictures.
The apartment was so well looked after , in fact I’m sure it looked tidier on my return with sheets and towels all washed.
I would always use Cindy when available and recommend her.
She is kind and trustworthy
TONI (Camperdown NSW, Sep 2023 - 3 weeks)
Cindy did a fantastic job looking after my place and my Dog, Rusty, for the 6 weeks I was away.
Cindy sent regular photos and updates of Rusty and he was really well looked after. Couldn't be happier. I would definitely recommend Cindy and will contact her again in the future for sure.
DEAN (Earlwood NSW, Sep 2023 - 1 month 2 weeks)
Cindy was a lovely sitter! She took care of my two cats and apartment for 10 days and was fantastic.
Right from the start she communicated regularly to arrange the sit, and sent updates during the stay. Both of the cats have behavioural quirks and Cindy handled them like a pro, as well as taking great care of the apartment - it was sparkling clean when I got home!

GEORGIA (Redfern NSW, Jul 2023 - 1 week 2 nights)
Cindy was amazing. She sent through updates every couple of days so we felt very at ease while we were away. The house was in great condition when we arrived home again too. Would happily have Cindy sit again for us.
TIM (Thornbury VIC, Apr 2023 - 2 weeks 2 days)
Cindy was very nice and communicated well. We even had an issue where the apartment building was messaging us about an issue and we were able to get a hold of Cindy right away about it, and she handled it all great. The place was very clean when we got home.
CHELSEA (Zetland NSW, Mar 2023 - 3 weeks)
Cindy was a lovely and reassuring sitter. Upon meeting she was super friendly and I felt comfortable allowing her in to my home to look after my fur baby.
I arrived back home to a completely clean and spotless apartment, and her communication while I was a way was great. I would love to have her look after Prince again.
Thank you Cindy!
VALENTINA (Ashfield NSW, Mar 2023 - 2 days)
Cindy was an excellent pet and house sitter. Firstly, she was very generous with her time by travelling to our home to meet Simba ( our cat) and to get the run of the house. Cindy is a gentle woman with a very calm energy and immediately put us at ease in leaving our home and pet in her care. Cindy provided a daily photo and update and we could tell that Simba was very relaxed and that Cindy really got to know him and all his personality traits.

We would definitely book Cindy to return as our pet and house sitter.
LOUISE (Boronia Park NSW, Mar 2023 - 1 week 3 days)
Cindy was to great to have in my home, I felt comfortable leaving her to manage my apartment and look after my cat. She was great on communication and sent regular updates. When I got home my apartment was much cleaner and tidier than I'd left it, and my plants had been tended to :) Hoping Cindy will be available to sit for me again in the future.
BEATRIX (Stanmore NSW, Nov 2022 - 1 week)
My dog was healthy and the house was tidy and clean when I came home. I appreciate both of these.
Cindy was slow to respond to text messages or calls. I did get a few updates during my time away, but in some cases had to ask. Since coming home I have not had responses to my text or call.
Cindy moved things around to suit which is fine, but didn't put things back and I'm till missing bits and pieces. Several cupboards in the kitchen were rearranged totally unnecessarily and to me this ... MOREMy dog was healthy and the house was tidy and clean when I came home. I appreciate both of these.

Cindy moved things around to suit which is fine, but didn't put things back and I'm till missing bits and pieces. Several cupboards in the kitchen were rearranged totally unnecessarily and to me this is borderline snooping.
I didn't ask her to do this, she didn't ask, nor tell me.
I would have talked to her about it, but she hasn't responded.
MARGARET (Thornbury VIC, Oct 2022 - 3 weeks)
Cindy was fabulous. The house looked beautiful and she had gone to a lot of effort to ensure it was so -better than we had left it. I think.
The garden and pots were extremely well cared for too.
Definitely recommend Cindy any time.
MARY (Eltham VIC, Sep 2022 - 1 week 1 day)
Absolutely loved having Cindy look after Prince Jasper (free flying 8yo Budgie). He went straight to Cindy with her calm nature, making him feel comfortable. I have left him before to come home with him looking stressed & moulting, but this time he was super happy. And did I mention how clean/organised my house was?! Cindy is an absolute gem and I would have her back in a moment. Heck, I'd pay her to stay again!
RACHEL (Millers Point NSW, May 2022 - 4 days)
Thankyou so much for looking after Jaxon and our home as if they were your own!
We have never used a house sitter without meeting them previously but you quickly put our mind at ease & we knew Jaxon was in great hands.
On arriving home the house was absolutely immaculate and we are so thankful.
We would recommend you to anyone requiring a reliable and friendly sitter for your home and pets.
We highly recommend Cindy so much that we've already booked her in for our next holiday!
MEGHAN (Manning WA, Mar 2022 - 1 week 3 days)
Cindy was so easy to deal with from the first interaction. Always fast to respond & honest. The only thing I would change which was out of both our controls is we didn't get to meet in person and I would of loved to. Cindy looked after Moses so well and even had night time cuddles with him in our bed because that's what the old boy is used to. The place was left perfectly clean & tidy!

Hopefully we will even get to meet in person that time! xxx Thanks Cindy! xxx
DANIELLE (Earlwood NSW, Mar 2022 - 2 days)
Cindy was such a charming person, and very attentive to what was needed by my pets - three cats (one needing regular medication) and five bantams! She was fabulous at communicating any concerns, and listening to what was required with a speedy response. She took stellar care of our home and garden and it was lovely to come home to it sparkling. I am so glad we went with Cindy for the house sit, and would recommend her in an instant to all who need their home and animals cared for.
GRETCHEN (Erskineville NSW, Jan 2022 - 2 weeks)
Only one word for Cindy, PERFECT! She was amazing with our pets, fabulous with communication and the house was immaculate when we got home! Loved having her sit for us!! Highly recommend.
ERIN & MATT (Clarence Gardens SA, Oct 2021 - 5 days)
We felt immediately comfortable with Cindy and she was very relaxed and comfortable with our dog. Communicating with Cindy was a pleasure as she always responded promptly or indeed reached out to me also. I felt completely confident that we could rely on Cindy to arrive when we needed her to and to look after our house and pets. We are glad to hear our animals were easy to look after and that Cindy enjoyed her stay. She left our home tidy and we had no problems at all.
MICHELLE (Blackwood SA, Sep 2021 - 4 days)
I can't say enough about how impressed I was with Cindy! The things you hope a person will do when in your home: clean up after themselves, keep animals and plants alive, maintain decent contact... tick. But the above and beyond care and respect was phenomenal! I was humbled by Cindy's gratitude for being in my apartment, and that she found my fur babies characteristics endearing rather than annoying...

I was humbled by Cindy's gratitude for being in my apartment, and that she found my fur babies characteristics endearing rather than annoying... I was completely at ease with her being in my home, as if she had come to visit many times before. Even amidst covid travel and lockdown uncertainties, she kept her cool and communicated consistently as we had to change the plan several times. What a legend!
You would be lucky to have her in your home, and I hope to be lucky enough to have her back.
Cindy, you've set the bar high!
VALERIE (North Melbourne VIC, May 2021 - 4 weeks)
Jacinta looked after our house and dog Astro for 4 nights. Her communication was great before and during the sit, the house was left spotless and most importantly Astro was very well cared for and got lots of cuddles. I would recommended Jacinta as a sitter.
BRENDAN (Lawson NSW, May 2021 - 4 days)
Jacinta was so lovely and kind, all the pets took to her immediately. My fur babies were very happy and content as they had Jacinta's undivided attention. The place was kept absolutely pristine. Jacinta communicated every day and updated me on the activities for the day.
I would highly recommend Jacinta to anyone looking for a perfect house sit guest and would love to have her sit for me again.
SIMONE (Hamilton NSW, Apr 2021 - 2 days)
Jacinta has been a delight to have as a sitter. The house was spotless (and much more organised than when I left) and my dog was super happy and looked well looked after.
Jacinta has been very kind and a great communicator. I can recommend her without hesitation.
