Hi! My name is Stephen 😊 I am a mature, responsible, animal-loving, non-smoking, reliable, trustworthy person.
I have been housesitting for a year and a half now and have looked after dogs, cats and chickens. I enjoy gardening and being outdoors. I am house proud and take pride in having your house clean and tidy when you return home.
I have a keen interest in animals and the environment with a liking of the marine setting. I have my own transport and am very punctual.
If there is a vehicle available, I am more than happy to drop off and pick up from airport/cruise terminal/other.
In my previous employment of 30 years I was responsible for the maintenance of large refinery equipment with skills I would be happy to engage to undertake small agreed to jobs whilst sitting your house.
I can provide you with updates via texts/photos of your property and pets whilst you are away.
Regards Stephen🐶🐱🐓


I have included 2 references below from my previous housesittings:

Stephen looked after our house whilst we were away on holidays for 3 months. He arrived on time (unlike other sitters we have engaged) and he was very presentable and was very perceptive to our expectations. During our absence, we texted Stephen and he sent us a photo of Trevor (our Dog) enjoying a walk along the beach. On return the lawns were mowed and the house was clean. Our dog was happy and certainly had enjoyed Stephens company. He even put milk and bread in our fridge so we didn`t need to go to the shops straight away. Would recommend Stephen to house sit any time.

To Whom it May Concern
I am writing to express my sincere appreciation and recommendation for Steve, who has provided exceptional care for my beloved pet, Murphy over the past year on multiple occasions.
As a pet owner, finding someone trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely caring to look after my dog has always been a top priority. Steve has not only met but exceeded all my expectations in this regard.
During Steve's time caring for Murphy, I have consistently observed his attentiveness, responsibility, and affection towards Murphy. He has gone above and beyond to ensure Murphy receives the proper attention exercise, and affection needed to thrive. Whether it's taking Murphy for walks, adhering to feeding schedules, administering medication, or simply providing companionship, Steve has consistently demonstrated his commitment to the well-being of animals.
Steve has exhibited exceptional professionalism and reliability in all our interactions. He is always punctual, communicative, and responsive to any concerns or special instructions I may have regarding Murphy’s care.
I have complete confidence in Steve's ability to provide outstanding pet care, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of a responsible and compassionate dog sitter. His dedication and genuine love for animals make him an invaluable asset to any pet owner.
I am certain that he will continue to excel in providing exceptional care for the furry companions entrusted to him.

We can’t thank Stephen enough for stepping in at the last minute to house and pet sit for us. His incredible communication and the exceptional care he provided to Gizmo and Jake truly exceeded our expectations. Stephen walked Gizmo daily and kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. He graciously stayed at our home until midnight due to our late flight arrival, to ensure our pets had company until we returned. His calm, easygoing nature made ... MORE

House was clean and tidy very happy with Stephen
 
ANN-MARIE (Tallebudgera QLD, Nov 2024 - 1 week 4 nights)
Stephen has just completed a house sit for us & we couldn't be happier. Juno is blind & can become anxious in different situations, Stephen was very mindful of this & her needs. He instantly helped Juno to feel at ease. We felt very comfortable in leaving her in Stephens capable hands. During our 10 day break we received photos & updates as to what they were doing & how she was going. As we had not used this service before, Phill & I were very nervous about leaving Juno & opening our home ... MORE

Stephen looked after our dogs, chooks, ducks and 5 acres for 4 weeks. All the animals were very happy and well looked after and Stephen even mowed our lawn. The house was clean and tidy . We are very happy and would happily have Stephen sit again in the future.
