Roving North to the Border

64, Retired

I am retired and deciding where to settle in our lovely state of NSW and I am living a bit of a nomadic life, house/pet sitting in different regions to help me get a feel for where I may end up. (Coastal, from Sydney up and down to the Borders)

I have already been house-sitting for a few discerning friends for many years, looking after their beloved pets—dogs of all shapes and sizes and cats from moggies to various pure breeds.

Sold up in 2021 in the Mid North Coast and went back to look after Mum during the end of Covid and started doing this in May 2022 for other people and having the pleasure of looking after the properties of so many lovely people and lovingly caring for many beautiful 4-legged family members. All of my sits have resulted in repeat sits when they have been required.

I have owned and bred dogs since 1985 and have experience in most activities, Showing, Obedience both competing and teaching, agility, and even some field work, I have always been gentle, loving, and caring with my pets and those of others over the years.

I had owned a very successful boarding kennel (Dog and Cat) that I rebuilt over many years on the Mid-North Coast and regularly had people traveling from Sydney or Brisbane to board their much-loved pets with me only. (Word of mouth was the best advertising). Even having people who had never boarded their pet/pets before.

It will be my pleasure to take the very best care of your home and or beloved pets.
Lawn, garden care, and pool care are perfectly fine. Long-term stays are preferred, but short-term stays of over a week are also ok.

It will be just me and I live very quietly, a non-smoker and non-drinker, not coming and going a lot - home most of the time, optimising your security and pet care or house care with no pets.
I look forward to hearing from you

Regards

Kevin.

Kevin was a very meticulous and caring house and pet sitter. Our little dog, Sammy was very well looked after and loved. Kevin provided us with updates while we were away, ensuring that we didn't need to worry. Not only did he look after Sammy, but also, our home and our lawns. Thanks, Kevin, for taking care of everything while we were away.

Kevin was an excellent communicator from first contact. He left our home in immaculate condition and our boisterous Labrador pup Mack was happy and content. Kevin went out of his way to find the best grooming tool for Mack as we struggled to cope with his thick coat and shedding. He also purchased a better feeding bowl to slow Mack's "hoovering" eating style down. In other words, Kevin treated Mack as well as if he was his own pet. We would highly recommend Kevin to anyone considering a house ... MORE

We could not have had a better sitter than Kevin. He is an expert with absolutely all aspects of dog and cat care, and our whole house was left much cleaner than we left it! He kept us well up to date with how our little guys were doing, with beautiful photos as well. We also really appreciated Kevin’s flexibility when we got sick overseas and had to come home early. Thank you Kevin, we know exactly who to call next time. Georgie and Toby will love to see you again for sure. Best wishes, Tracy ... MORE

We were so lucky to have Kevin do our house sit. He took excellent care of our dog and sent many photos. The house was very clean and tidy on our return and garden was well watered. He sorted out a few hiccups we had with wifi and our computer ( I asked for the help). He is a delightful person and I highly recommend him to do your house sit Diane
 
KEN (Macmasters Beach NSW, Oct 2023 - 2 weeks 2 nights)
Kevin came to our rescue with a recent 4 week house and dog sit. . We certainly hit the jackpot with this experienced and avid dog lover! Our pooch Banjo was happy and healthy on our return and Kevin sent us lots of reassuring pictures and videos while we were away. Kevin is an excellent communicator and a very genuine, caring person. We hope to keep in touch with him, and we have our fingers crossed that he will be available to look after our precious Kelpie again in the ... MORE

Kevin was the perfect housesitter for us. Our house and garden were in excellent condition when we arrived home. We loved getting photos and updates from him. We look forward to Kevin housesitting again for us and highly recommend him.
