Jo and Brenda Reviews

We are 2 sisters Brenda and Jo who are energetic retirees and we are looking to travel around Australia in our motorhome! And as we have been pet/housesitting since early 2017 in many regions of Victoria and Queensland, we have realised that this new vocation of ours is a brilliant opportunity to combine seeing Australia with our love for animals, and taking care of them in their own environment as we know first hand how difficult it is to find the right carer/s to look after your pets and your home.
We have been homeowners for 32 years, until we decided for a life change. We love animals, we have had a variety of pets over many years!. We both have grown up children and growing grandchildren! Whom we love dearly.
And now we find we have time for ourselves and the enjoyment of helping out others.
During our experiences we have obtained unmeasureable skills and empathy towards the fur babies that we look after to ensure that we meet their needs, eg..diet, medication, comfort etc.
Previously we have house sat and looked after pets for our friends as well as family over the past 9 years and have enjoyed doing so.
We enjoy having time together and to ourselves as well as going for walks, spending time with family, pottering around the garden and caring for others. We fundraise for animal sanctuaries during November and December 'Adopt-a-furry ' at markets
We are also vegetarian, non smokers, reliable and trustworthy. As we worked with children, we both hold a current working with children check, and Brenda has held a first aid certificate for 14 years which will remain current.
We take pride in being clean and tidy sitters and loving the pets we care for as if they were our own, but respect the instructions of the owners, we also have our own transport.
So if you like what you read we must be the ones for you!
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Regards Jo and Brenda ☺☺

Thank you, Brenda, for looking after our furry ones and house so well while we were in the USA. If anyone is looking for an outstanding house sitter and just an all-round wonderful person, then Brenda is your choice. We especially thank Brenda for looking after our little ones while we were dealing with medical issues overseas. Brenda provided us the peace of mind that everything was well at home whilst we were in the midst of a stressful event. We know our little ones absolutely loved Brenda, because in every photo that Brenda sent, they looked happy, healthy and very relaxed. Our house was also in immaculate condition upon our return. We thank and wish Brenda all the best for the future and will definitely be booking Brenda again. She is an absolute SUPERSTAR! We look forward to seeing Brenda again soon :-)

Brenda did a wonderful job of looking after our 2 dogs and home whilst we enjoyed 5 weeks away. Our dogs were well cared for and she kept us updated with texts and photos each week. Thank you very much Brenda.

We have just had Brenda house/dog sit for us for 3 weeks. Brenda was absolutely fantastic! While we were away she updated us regularly & sent us pics of our fur-babies. She genuinely enjoyed their company. Brenda cared for our home & dogs as if they were her own. She left the house in immaculate condition. We will definitely have her back in a heartbeat. Thank you so much Brenda!

My husband and I were very pleased with Brenda’s care of our home and care of our 4 hens. We would certainly appoint her again to take care of our home.
