Very proud of our 5 star ratings and many repeat bookings where we have made some lovely friends, both furry and human. We hope to continue adding more.

Repeat booked frequently.

We promise you come home to a clean house,tidy garden and happy pets as our references testify.

We do ask for use of a car to get around, take pets to beaches,parks, vets, groomers if required. Collect your packages, airport drop offs, pick ups etc.

We can recommend Anita and Laurie to house sit your home. The dogs were well looked after and the house was clean and tidy on our return
 
TRACEY (Redlynch QLD, Jan 2024 - 4 weeks) From Aussie House Sitters
Laurie and Anita housesat for us during cyclone Jasper and it's aftermath. We are extremely grateful to them for their impeccable communication, level headedness and practical approach to what ended up being a catastrophic event in Cairns. We arrived home to a beautifully cleaned house, mowed yard and a happy dog. Despite all the hardships of electricity outages, torrential rain and flooding they had managed to still care for our place as though it was their own. We have no hesitation in ... MORE

Anita and Laurie are the perfect housesitters. I would higly recommend them. We came home to a spotlessly clean home and a happy dog. They sent us photos of our dog while we were away. They responded very quickly if we contacted them. They even picked us up from the airport on our return. We would use them again. A big thank you
 
WENDY (Palm Cove QLD, Oct 2023 - 15 days) From Aussie House Sitters
Anita and Laurie are a great team. House was spotless, bed linen was washed and on the line and the cat and dog looked relaxed and not overfed. Pet bowls were washed and cat litter was clean. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone wanting peace of mind when leaving beloved pets behind.
 
LIZ (Kewarra Beach QLD, Apr 2023 - 5 days) From Aussie House Sitters
Anita and Laurie were the perfect house sitters. We had complete peace of mind while we were away that our pets and home were in safe hands. It was lovely to receive regular updates with photos of our pets and garden while we were away, and to come back to a lovely clean home. We would love to have Anita and Laurie house sit for us again.
 
HEATHER (Cheltenham NSW, Jan 2023 - 16 days) From Aussie House Sitters
We have returned from our holiday and so far can recommend Anita and Laurie. The house was Spick and span and our cat and dog both happy and well. Thanks so much to Laurie and Anita - much appreciate you taking us on at short notice - our home and pets were in safe hands. Laurie and Anita will do a great house sit for you and your pets.
 
JULIE (Earlville QLD, Jan 2023 - 3 weeks) From Aussie House Sitters
Julie has apologised for the inaccurate rating. She intended to give 5 stars and has asked the site to rectify. Please see her dialogue. I have to write this as I am trying to get gaps filled now.
Anita and Laurie were wonderful house sitters and delightful and completely trustworthy couple. We returned from our vacation to find our cat well pampered and the house was immaculate with fresh sheets on the beds and fresh flowers. The garden was regularly watered and Laurie mowed our lawns too and attended to some well overdue garden cleanup in our absence. Anita and Laurie also left food in the fridge such as an evening meal, bread and milk on our return which was so thoughtful. Anita kept ... MORE

Wow what a fabulous reference. Thanks so much guys. What a pleasure this sit was, Buzz is a really fun character easy to love and enjoy caring for. His owners are pretty neat too. Thoroughly enjoyed meeting you and look forward to meeting up again. Really hoping next time you go away, the dates ... MORE
No rating Recently had Laurie and Anita house sit for us while we traveled overseas. We had 2 dogs and 2 cats to care for so not a small ask!! We had regular updates from our babies which was much appreciated and our babies were spoilt rotten. Our house and gardens were also well cared for. Have no hesitation in recommending them for any sit that you require them for..
BRYAN AND KIM (Smithfield QLD, Sep 2017 - 3 weeks) From Aussie House Sitters
No rating Anita and Lawrence were outstanding, a truly wonderful pair. We are new to Cairns and were extremely anxious about leaving our beautiful boys even just for 1 night. The moment I met them, I felt comfortable instantly and could see how experienced they are with animals, our boys took a liking to them straight away and the house sit was a huge success. My partner and I recieved photos and updates a and returned home to find our dogs very happy, very relaxed, they were clearly well pampered ... MORE

No rating Thank you for looking after our property and our cat. We have a large house and garden and as such it is a huge responsibility, and Laurie and Anita maintained it all very well. We would be happy to have them sit for us again.
