WALKER FAM

55, FREELANCE 3D MODEL / GRAPHICS CREATOR

51, MUM!

HI FOLKS! WE'RE AN ACTIVE FAMILY OF VERY EXPERIENCED, TRUSTWORTHY, RELIABLE & CLEAN HOUSESITTERS WHO WILL LOVE & ADORE YOUR FURRY, FEATHERY & FISHY FRIENDS!
Our sons now work full time so unfortunately are not able to accompany us on most sits these days (unless local for us on the NSW north coast), however they are extremely respectful of the privilege of housesitting as we have been almost a full time housesitting family for the past 11 years. You'll go a long way to find someone who will spend more time with your pets than these two "Dr Doolittle" animal lovers when they are able to join us!
Our previous regular sits over the past 11 years include a 20acre property with prize winning chickens, a bird, dog, cow, three ponies & two fish. They also recommended us for their sister's tabby, their cousin's tabby, and their friends' chickens, cattle & goat.
For approximately 3yrs, we had a regular 'on-call' job for friends at their 40acre hobby farm in South Grafton (whenever they wanted to escape to their beach shack) caring for numerous dogs & puppies, cats & kittens, chickens, ducks, turkeys, sheep, pig, fish & bird aviary, however they sold that property due to retirement. We continue to sit their new home, though now with fewer pets!
For 5yrs we regularly sat for a beautiful family in Helensvale, QLD (through AussieHousesitters) caring for their boxer & cat, though Covid disrupted a few years. They have asked us to recommence sitting for them in 2024 on their new property.
We've also had the amazing privilege of sitting stunning properties & palatial homes in Port Macquarie & also Sydney's northwest (all through AussieHousesitters) with return visits requested.
Maintaining pools, lawns & yard work are no problem at all as Greg was previously a carpenter by trade & also maintenance employee. We've both had experience helping with trail ride horses regularly in previous employment at a conference & recreation centre in Sydney. Heidi very much enjoys getting out in the garden, cooking & photography.
We bring all our own food, sheets & towels, and like to keep in touch through texts &/or emails while you are away so you can see clearly that your home & pets are very loved!
SO IF YOU THINK WE MAY BE SUITABLE FOR YOUR NEEDS, PLEASE DROP US A NOTE OR GIVE US A CALL - WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU, & ARE MORE THAN HAPPY TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL REFERENCES TO OUR REVIEWS IF NECESSARY.
Thank You :-))))

No rating Best house sitters ever!!!! Heidi and Greg and the boyslhad the house cleaner than when we left. When our 18year old decided to stay home it wasn't a bother. When she had an accident they were there to help. The animals didn't seem fussed we were home. They loved their new family. We were gone 7 weeks and nothing was a bother. We have a big house. Acerage, massive pool and animals and everything looked better than when we left. Would use them in a heartbeat again.

Heidi, Greg and Family were terrific in all aspects. The ponies were very well cared for and the house was cleaner than I left it. I even learned some cleaning tricks and flower arranging techniques. Thank you for your efforts.
 
SANDRA (Kenthurst NSW, Dec 2023 - 2 weeks 1 night)
Hahaha! Was our pleasure and privilege Sandra. :)
Heidi and Greg and Jarrod- how did we get so luckyđŸ€— thank you for answering our ad. We can’t believe how lucky we got meeting you and having you take care of our precious Rosie and our home. We came home to an immaculate house, growing garden, remade beds and most importantly of all a happy, healthy and relaxed Rosie đŸŸ As you know we would love to have you come back- and I currently have my fingers crossed that someone will cancel from your busy schedule- although I know if I had you booked ...

 Thanks so much Jackie - Very sweet of you. Twas indeed our privilege! Can’t wait to return.đŸ«¶
Greg and Heidi took wonderful care of our two elderly and high needs pugs. They communicated regularly and were an absolute delight to deal with. Our home was immaculate upon our return and we would have no hesitation recommending them to anyone.
 
STEPHEN (Castle Hill NSW, Jun 2022 - 4 days)
Aww... Thanks SO much for your lovely review Stephen. We couldn't help but fall in love with quirky little Anton & sweet Penelope?!... They are a delight. And your home was immaculate when we arrived, very easy to maintain, with many treats for us to enjoy. We had a ball, & can't thank you enough ... MORE
I cannot be more grateful to Heidi and her family who looked after our doggo and our house. They were wonderful and they are the nicest people you can hope to meet. Apart from our house being spotless and perfect, we came to home to a happy doggo who has clearly been loved and cared for in the time we were away. Thank you Thank you Heidi and fam. Dobby misses you very much!
 
ELMA (North Kellyville NSW, Dec 2021 - 2 weeks)
We were very lucky to find Greg, Hedi and the boys to house sit and look after our Dog, Cat and Bird. What an absolutely amazing family, kind, caring and genuinely lovely people. We felt so confident to leave our precious animals in there care and came home to very happy and content animals and a house cleaner than when we left (which is not easy when you have 3 animals). We can't thank Greg, Hedi and the Boys enough for obliging to our exhausting list of instructions with every different ... MORE
 
TRACEY (Merrimac QLD, Jun 2019 - 2 weeks 5 days)
It was an absolute pleasure to meet the Walker family, and to have them look after our home and fur babies! We were hesitant to have people in our home, and had a few disappointing responses to our ad which was making us further concerned about how our pets would be looked after on our trip away. The Walkers got in touch just as another sitter fell through and were polite and personable, quick to respond, and followed through on our chats. They instantly had us at ease and exceeded all ...

RENEE (Quakers Hill NSW, Dec 2018 - 6 days)
No rating A can't say thank you enough to Greg, Heidi and the boys for taking such wonderful care of our home and pets whilst we were away earlier this year. The cats, dogs, goats and alpacas were all looked after very well, and the house was spotless when we returned. We even had fresh milk and OJ for us in the fridge, and Heidi had even gone to the trouble of cooking a meal for us so we could relax after our big plane trip home. A big thank you and a definite endorsement if you are considering this ... MORE
KELLIE (NANA GLEN NSW, May 2018 - 3 weeks)
No rating Greg, Heidi and the boys took excellent care of our cats and home. The cats were sad to see them go! And our unit was beautiful and sparkling clean.. very nice to return to. We look forward to having the Walker family back again soon!!
ALLI (Sunrise Beach QLD, Jun 2017 - 2 weeks)
No rating What a delight having the Walker family house/dog sit for us recently. They treat our house like their own, and our little delicate dog Max looked to have the time of his life, with lots of attention and lots of cuddles. Thank you Walker family xxx
MICHELLE (Port Macquarie NSW, Jun 2017 - 1 week 2 days)
No rating Greg and Heidi and their gorgeous two boys looked after our pets and house over the Christmas period. They took great care for our dogs and pampered and spoiled them, and they took excellent care of our home. We came home to a beautifully clean house. I could not recommend them highly enough and I wish they could have come back to do it again in July but they are already booked. Hopefully next time.
