Hi, We are Michelle and Graham??
We have started on our journey around Australia in 15/2/24. We have packed up our house in Vasse in the Margaret River Region in Western Australia. (Wine Country??). We lived in the Margaret River region for 2 years, working in wineries in the cellar door.
Before that we were both employed in a prison as Senior Officers, where we both managed our own staff and looked after male prisoners. (As you can imagine, we both needed a rest after doing this for years?‍♂️). (Me, 10 years and Graham 20 years).
We have been house sitting since January 2024 and in this time, we have completed house sits in WA, SA , NSW, VIC, QLD and ACT. As of the end of 2024, we have completed 13 amazing house sits. We both love animals and we have experience looking after Dogs, Cats, Chickens and Fish. In the past we have had a Beagle, Golden Retriever/labrador and a few rescue dogs. Due to them passing in old age?we no longer have any pets?.
We are reliable, trustworthy, clean and tidy, and will take on the responsibility of looking after your fur babies, while you have your own adventures. Will definitely keep in contact (or not) depending what you require so you can have piece of mind while you are away.
We are also non smokers.
As well as Mindahome, we use Aussie and Trusted H/sitters. There are further reviews on these sites.
You can also check us out and follow on Instagram #wanderinghousesitters.

“Hi Michelle & Graham, thank you for your stellar review! I must say that the feeling is mutual. We were away for 25 days and our very special dogs were not only exceptionally well cared for, but they were also treated with love, something that we hoped we'd find using Mindahome. My garden has been so well cared for the plants are leaping out of the ground !! Michelle & Graham cared for our home, pets and garden to an exceptional level, and I recommend them thoroughly to anyone considering their services. I'm glad you had the ability to see what our beautiful region has to offer, I hope to give you the opportunity to see what you may not have been able to see in the future. All the best guys Cheers, Tracy & Tony”

“Michelle and Graham did a good job of looking after the house and my cat. They left things neat and tidy and were respectful of my belongings. They are a really pleasant couple and I would happily have them sit for me again”

Helpful Report

“We were so pleased they way everything was looked after, the dogs were spoilt and loved Michelle & Graham, we were so jealous as they didn’t miss us much. All of their needs were catered for. After such extreme weather over the past two weeks the garden was well watered and cared for, Thank you so much”
