We come to you with years of experience. Over 20 years, we had the privilege of caring for our 3 Border Collies (Molly, Kimba, and Kye) from puppies through to old age. Over the last 8yrs, they have left us. When our last, Kye (17) died a few years ago we decided to fill the space they left by becoming house/pet sitters ourselves. We used many house sitters over the years and feel this helped us understand what is important in a house /pet sitter. When we were looking for suitable house sitters, we looked for sitters that could fit into our dogs' lives, follow their routines, and provide each needed individual attention. When we look after your pet/s, we will ensure your pet's life remains as normal as possible. Their routines will be followed and after having 3 border collies, exercise and walking is easy for us. As for your home, we also know how important it is to come home after your break and walk into the house as you left it. My husband had a rural upbringing surrounded by horses. He is capable of managing any outside tasks you may have, and I am a keen gardener so your plants will be well looked after. We now live in Launceston and are currently interested in sits on the north coast . Please see references of sits completed. We look forward to hearing from you.

Michael and Margaret house sat our farm including 6 horses, 2 dogs and one eccentric goat for nearly 3 weeks and they were absolutely fantastic! Communication was excellent from the very start and this continued throughout their stay as they kept us regularly updated with photos and news. We felt very confident as soon as we met them - they are a lovely, down to earth and sensible couple. The house was kept beautifully - even the windows were cleaned and lawns mown which was well above and ... MORE
 
NICOLA (Upper Woodstock TAS, Apr 2024 - 2 weeks 4 nights)
Margaret and Michael looked after our dog Lola and our home as if it was their own. From the first moment we met them, we knew we’d be comfortable to leave on our trip knowing one spoilt dog and our home would be in very capable and caring hands. They were kind enough to drop and collect us from the airport. They communicated regularly with us, sending updates and photos of Lola. We came home to a spotless home and a very well cared for and tidy large garden. And we won’t forget that extra ... MORE
 
RENISE (Nile TAS, Mar 2024 - 2 weeks 6 nights)
Margaret and her husband did a great job of looking after our dog Rosie and our house. The house was left very clean and tidy and Rosie seemed very happy. We received daily updates and photos of Rosie and could see she was having no trouble training our house sitters to play with her, and take her out.
 
LOUISE (West Hobart TAS, Feb 2024 - 4 nights)
We felt like we'd hit the jackpot when we connected with Margaret and Michael. Having had 3 border collies of their own, we knew that our 3 fur babies would be in very experienced hands. Our dogs warmed to Margaret and Michael immediately and now that we are home I am quite sure they miss them! We arrived home late at night to a spotlessly clean home which was wonderful. The following day we received glowing reviews from our neighbours as to the love and affection they had observed given ... MORE
 
CAROLINE (Nords Wharf NSW, Jan 2023 - 5 days)
How lucky we have been to have Margaret and Michael house sit for us recently and care for our two cocker spaniels. From the first contact to the conclusion of the house-sit the communication has been brilliant. We came home to a beautifully clean home and two very happy and settled dogs. it was clear to us that they have been incredibly well looked after and loved. Margaret thoughtfully left us a few groceries so that we didn't need to rush out to the supermarket when we got home. She ... MORE
 
GAYLE (Orange NSW, Dec 2022 - 7 days)
Thank you Margaret and Michael for being such great housesitters. You did a stellar job looking after our pets, keeping to their routines and taking Indie for lots of walks. You were flexible, accommodating and good communicators. Thank you especially for the excellent and clean condition in which you left our house. We couldn't have asked for more and are most appreciative of all your efforts.
 
MEGAN (Bonnells Bay NSW, Apr 2022 - 1 week)
Margaret and Michael looked after our house, garden, dog and cat for a week and we couldn't speak more highly of them. Benny and Mouse were spoilt rotten with cuddles, brushes and daily walks, and we returned home to a house that had been thoroughly cleaned from top to bottom. Highly recommended house sitters!
