Your pet sitting dream!

59, Medical Transcriptionist

Hi, I'm Ally, a single, quiet, clean living and respectful animal lover in my late 50s who would love to look after your special family members and home.

I have been house and pet sitting, both in Australia and overseas, for about eight years, and what started out as favours for friends and family has now turned into a full time job - and I LOVE it! The highlight of my life is moving from place to place meeting and lavishing love on gorgeous animals (and the bonus is, they lavish it right back on me!). I have had lots of experience with dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles as well as looked after livestock such as alpacas and sheep and have many happy, repeat clients - even to the point of them booking their holidays around my availability, which is an awesome feeling! I will look after your loved ones with as much care and attention as they can lap up. Working from home as a medical typist means your pets will not be left alone much if they love company and there is always time for a cuddle.

I will also treat your home as if it was my own, look after plants and any other jobs that may be needed, including of course daily dog walking. I am always respectful of your house rules - if pets aren't allowed on the bed or furniture, so be it. If they are, what's a bit of dog or cat fur between friends? I'll give them warm cuddles at night! I have a current police clearance and lots of references from my previous happy house sittees.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

We had not been anywhere without our little dog for 12 years, so Ally had a bit of a challenge engaging with a sad little dog. Ally excelled getting to know Vegemite and gaining his trust. She took good care of him and kept up his daily walks which he loves. We came home to a clean house and a relaxed dog who was a bit confused when we walked in after two weeks away. It was lovely to know Ally was taking care of him and our house. She kept us up to date with photos of Vegemite. These were ... MORE
 
DENISE (Pelican Waters QLD, Sep 2024 - 2 weeks 1 night)
Ally was an absolutely fantastic house sitter! There was excellent communication both before and during the housesit. My dog loved Ally immediately and I knew he was in such good hands. Ally kept me up to date with photos and little videos while I was away which always puts my mind at ease. I came home to an absolutely spotless house and a very content doggo. Would recommend Ally unreservedly to anyone looking for a caring and competent house sitter.
 
LOUISE (Sawtell NSW, Aug 2024 - 1 week 2 nights)
Ally is a phenomenal sitter. Communication from the get go was fantastic and this lasted throughout the sit. She took the time to understand how much communication would make me comfortable and stuck to her word. You can tell she is a genuine animal lover and my animals were so content on my return. She is extremely respectful of your space and went above and beyond taking care of my home. I would recommend her in a heartbeat for a stress free experience. Thank you Ally and hope to have you ...

Ally was a great choice to house sit for us, Ally took great care of our pets and home , we returned to a lovely clean house and happy pets, we would definitely ask Ally if she is available for any future house sits. We thoroughly recommend Ally. Thank you Ally.
 
JAMIE (Brinsmead QLD, Sep 2023 - 1 week 2 nights)
Ally was a wonderful pet sitter for my golden retriever Charlie. She had good communication pre stay and during her stay - sending updates and photos of Charlie. the house was very well looked after and clean when i came home. Would highly recommend Ally! 5 stars ⭐️
 
MEGAN (Grovedale VIC, Apr 2023 - 3 days)
Ally was an absolute lifesaver - coming to take care of my home and Arlo at the eleventh hour. When I arrived back home - the house was immaculate and a fresh loaf of bread was awaiting me. Ally sent me regular photo updates of my beloved furson - the whole time I was away and he was a happy little camper on my return. Arlo and I are looking forward to having Ally come to stay again sometime (once the weather warms back up again). We would recommend Ally to anyone looking for a nurturing carer ... MORE
 
JESSICA (Kyneton VIC, Apr 2023 - 1 week)
Ally is a wonderful house sitter. I don't think our pets even realised we were gone. I will definitely be trying to have Ally return next holidays. We received beautiful photos and update emails from Ally She is a devoted animal lover and my house was immaculate on return
 
NARELLE (Cannonvale QLD, Dec 2022 - 3 weeks)
This was our first experience with using a house sitter, and we're absolutely blown away at how good Ally was. The animals loved her, communication was excellent with daily pictures sent through to us for viewing, and the house was clean and tidy on our return. When we're in need of this service again, Ally will be the first person I reach out for. Thanks again Ally, so happy with the care you provided.
 
TERRY (Tolga QLD, Nov 2022 - 5 days)
Ally was truly amazing ... she took photo's nearly every day with wonderful information on how they were going, it's our first experience with House Sitting, and just the very best, and would recommend Ally to anyone, our two boys (dogs) will miss her so much. Our sincere thanks Ally, look forward to having you here again. Jack & Di

Ally was fantastic! Our two cats loved her and were well looked after. Ally also kept us updated with cute photos and videos of both our cats while we were away too! We also came home to a spotless house ;-)

LINDA & IAN (Greenfields WA, Feb 2021 - 1 week 1 day)
Over the last three weeks, Ally took over the care of our previous 15 year old boys, a dog and his brother a cat, and our 3 cheeky chickens. All of our fur and feathered babies warmed to her quickly, even to the point of keeping Ally company while she worked, right in front of her face! The personality of pets is always a challenge for some, but Ally took this in her stride, ensuring our cat got some love while she worked. Ally was soo lovely, to also be flexible enough to fit in ... MORE

No rating Ally was truly amazing, i could tell the animals loved her and would miss the time spent with her. The house was perfect when we arrived home, and she survived the antics of the big dogs who can be a handful. thanks again Ally, and good luck with your travels
SHARON AND ANDY (Wellard WA, Oct 2017 - 5 days)
No rating Ally was great! She kept us updated on how the animals were doing and sent us pictures which was nice. She also left the house spotless when she left, and washed the sheets and everything! Definitely would recommend Ally to everyone.
KATRINA AND PATRICK (Donnybrook WA, Sep 2017 - 1 week)
No rating Thanks Ally for looking after our little girl whilst we were on holiday. We were so lucky to find someone who loves and cares so much about animals and as you work from home it meant she was not left on her own for any length of time. Thanks also for the updates and photos while we were away and for leaving our home neat and tidy. We hope you will be able to fit us into your busy house sitting schedule in the near future. John is already planning our next trip! Thanks again for helping us out ... MORE

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
