After more than ten years of working and living in Sydney (for Ben) and over twenty years (for Phei), we made the decision to embark on a journey through Australia in our fully converted campervan, exploring the beauty of our own backyard. After several months of traveling along the east coast, Tasmania and Queensland, we chose to return to Sydney, staying close to our friends and family while saving up for the next leg of our adventure.

We started pet and house-sitting in Sydney in June 2022 and have loved every moment since. Reliable, trustworthy, and easygoing, we adore the company of animals and promise to care for your home as if it were our own. The bonds we've formed with the pets and homes we've had the privilege of looking after have been truly special. Each pet has its unique personality, and it brings us joy to get to know them.

Ben and I work two days casually in the office on different days. With someone always at home, your pets will never be alone. We relish being in nature and engaging in outdoor activities but also savor quiet and relaxing times at home, hanging out with the animals. We especially love taking dogs out for walks, ensuring they get the exercise and attention they need to thrive.

We own a Ford Transit campervan that resembles a work van (very stealthy), and we typically have no issues parking it on the street. No specialized parking is required, and we use it as our commuting vehicle when needed.

We look forward to connecting and invite you to send us a message if you have any questions.

Ben and Phei have stayed in my house with by two border collies and my cat, on three different occasions over the past year. The sits have been 4-7 weeks long. They are wonderful sitters. Everyone has been extremely well looked after and the communication is always excellent. When I have arrived home, things are comfortable and clean. Most importantly, Ben and Phei have become important figures in my pet's lives. Sam and Vincent, my dogs, are better for the time they have spent together ... MORE

Phei and Benjamin have been a fabulous find for us as doggie owners, and for even better for our doggies. The house and gardens were well cared for. Over 4 weeks, they communicated clearly and constantly regarding all doggy matters and we now have a new set of great photos too. I would recommend them highly as excellent sitters and would ask them again for sitting opportunities in the future.
 
CATHERINE (Cronulla NSW, Oct 2024 - 4 weeks)
Benjamin and Phei were absolutely fantastic pet and house sitters! Their experience really showed while taking care of our almost two-year-old groodle for three weeks. They kept us updated with plenty of adorable photos and videos of our pup having the best time. We returned to a spotless home and a very happy dog. We felt completely at ease during our time away, knowing everything was in such good hands. We would recommend Benjamin and Phei to anyone needing a house/pet sit.
 
WAYNE & GAVIN (Annandale NSW, Sep 2024 - 2 weeks 4 nights)
Ben and Phei looked after our fur baby Pablo for just over 3 weeks as we went back to the UK. He's a very friendly and easy-going cat but does have some specific needs and they were incredible attentive and sensitive to them, sending frequent photos and video updates showing a very happy and comfortable cat getting lots of love and attention! Thank you so much - high recommended!
 
ALEX (Summer Hill NSW, Aug 2024 - 3 weeks)
Benjamin and Phei were wonderful pet/house sitters. They looked after our 1 year old golden retriever and 7yo cat for three and a half weeks. During that time they kept in contact with loads of photos and messages telling us how the pets were going. We came home to a very clean house and very relaxed pets. I would 100% recommend Benjamin and Phei to look after your house and pets and I'm very much hoping they are available the next time we go away.
 
JO (Oatley NSW, Jul 2024 - 3 weeks)
A big thank you to Ben & Phei for taking wonderful care of our pets and home when we went away for a long weekend. The dogs adored them, to the point where I think they were a bit disappointed when we came home!! We were kept updated with photos and videos on Whatsapp so we could see everyone was having a great time. The house was spotless, they even stripped the beds before they left. We would absolutely love to have them sit again for us if the opportunity comes up. It's so reassuring to ... MORE
 
KAREN (Annandale NSW, Apr 2024 - 4 nights)
Benjamin and Phei looked after our silly staffies, Jinxie and Royson. Our dogs are high energy but very lovable and they took this on with a sense of humour. Benjamin ensured the dogs got not one, but TWO walks a day - the dogs thought they had gone on holiday, not the other way around. Communication was great and we received several pictures and updates during the day. The house was left tidy and clean. I would highly recommend Benjamin and Phei for house and dog sitting 😊
 
JESSIKA (Eastwood NSW, Apr 2024 - 1 week 3 nights)
Thanks so much. That was a lot of pets and we appreciate your professionalism, care, and great photo updates. We would recommend you to any prospective house/pet owner. You are welcome to give them my mobile for any reference.
 
DAVID (Lilyfield NSW, Feb 2024 - 3 weeks)
From the moment they arrived, Ben and Phei put our pups at ease. Ollie and Ella took an instant liking to them both, in particular our little Ella, a rescue who is usually averse to meeting new people, who climbed straight up onto Ben's lap and refused to leave. During the housesit we received fantastic regular updates and photos of the dogs all happy and healthy, and even when Ollie was unwell for a day, they looked after him and I was always reassured the dogs were in good hands. ...

RHYS (Homebush NSW, Feb 2024 - 2 weeks 1 night)
Ben and Phei looked after our dog Zip for 3weeks in Nov-Dec 2023, and the experience has been incredibly positive! Zip is an anxious and reactive kelpie that does not like strangers… but Ben and Phei truly respected her boundaries and managed to create a beautiful bond with her, followed her cues with patience, went for long walks, really spoiling her :) she’s had the best time. On our return, the house was spotless, plus the backyard grass had been mowed even though we didn’t expect it or ask ... MORE
 
CARLA (Panania NSW, Nov 2023 - 3 weeks)
It was an absolute pleasure to have Benjamin and Phei house sit while we were visiting family overseas. It was the 1st time we've ever made use of house sitters and have had an overall wonderful experience. Communication: We received regular feedback regarding our dogs. Photo and video messages reassured us that the dogs were happy and well taken care of. They were very prompt in replying when we sent messages. Garden: Phei arranged our regular gardener to mow the lawn before we ... MORE
 
JESSICA (Peakhurst NSW, Oct 2023 - 3 weeks)
Phie and Ben looked after a beloved Billy amazingly and we very much appreciate the care and attention they gave him. Would highly recommend using them to anybody and will definitely use them again ourselves. Jim & Jan
 
JIM (Artarmon NSW, May 2023 - 1 week 3 days)
It is great to know you have found someone you can trust when you are leaving your home for 6 weeks! Benjamin and Phei were reliable, communicative and clearly have a love of animals. Lots of pictures and videos keeping us up to date on our older dog Juney's health and even some suggestions on getting her out of a picky-eating phase. We would not hesitate in recommending them to any future house-minding offer.
 
COLIN (Hurlstone Park NSW, Dec 2022 - 1 months 3 weeks)
Phei and Ben were excellent Housesitters and just lovely people. Communication was great before and during their stay and it was clear that the cats were very well looked after and happy. The house was spotless on our return. Would gladly have them back and highly recommend them. Thanks Phei and Ben
 
BABETTE (Mosman NSW, Sep 2022 - 1 week 5 days)
Amazing couple took care of our cats and home. Good vibes and great communication. Be happy to have them house again.
