As 2024 comes to an end, and a very busy year of house sitting in some great locations, lets see how 2025 looks?

I have visited many locations including interstate travel to meet new home owners on my travels.
A big thank you for trusting me with your home and furry friends.

I have bookings for some of 2025, January I am available till 6th Feb, as well as some of April & May, please see my calendar for clarity, so feel free to contact me with any questions.

I have a very high rating on here as a house sitter and very humbled for the owners kind words, and grateful for a place to stay while enjoying their pets.

I have mostly looked after cats, watering plant etc. I have looked after many pets and some owners have specific needs and requests for their pampered pooches small to medium dogs only. I request that owners leave a small cash donation for dog walking etc.
This is greatly appreciated as dogs take up your time with walking and cleaning up after them.

Kennel stays are extremely costly if you have more than one pet, approximately $60 to $70 per day per pet! So I do ask for a small donation to look after your dogs needs which can be discuss when we meet up.

I am self sufficient, where I bring my own food, towels and cleaning products which works well for my needs.

I look forward to chatting and meeting all my house sitter in the near future.
I would like to travel more interstate as I have a daughter who works for Qantas. I feel very blessed ??? for access to cheap return flights interstate and overseas.
I have done 2 Previous house sits interstate Newcastle house sit in 2022/2023 & Bribie Island Queensland October 2024 which was amazing and felt like a holiday.

I too need holidays so would be great to have an interstate house sits. I do require min of two weeks notice for the Logistics.

No internal house cameras, I am ok with external cameras as I understand your home is your castle.

I am keen to house sit with or without pets who are sociable, trained and can be walked on a lead as well as friendly. I can travel or chat over the phone of your requirements. (Fees do apply and can be discussed)

I am a very keen adventurer and have road tripped in many states working remotely.

Most of my family live here in Western Australia. I returned to Perth from Albany after living and working there from February 2019 to May 2022 so I could be closer to my children and grandchildren.

I am currently house sitting in Perth as you can see from my calendar, so if I am available send me a request. I am looking for long sits, but happy with min of 3 days.

I have lived in the Sunshine coast between late 2012 - 2016 for approx 3.5 years and have travelled and road tripped along the East Coast from South Australia to Queensland, I have also driven from Victoria to Western Australia, the only places I have not been in Australia is Tasmania and Northern Territory.

Reliable and very well experienced with house sitting from 2014 in Queensland! Relocated back to the West in July 2016?
I have raised 4 amazing children, including 4 family pets of my own 2 dogs, who lived till 13 years old and 2 cats who both lived to 21 years of age.

I have been fortunate enough to House sit for family, friends and requests from other friends of friends, with some repeat house sits! during the past 8 years both in Western Australia and Queensland.

If you need any reference, I am happy to past on phone numbers from previous & current house sits for your peace of mind. I have a
National Police clearance 2023.

Thanks for reading my Journey of how I started and still do house sitting.

Kind Regards Karen ?

I had not met Karen before she pet sat for me... still haven't. She was in WA and I am SE Qld. When she applied for the position I looked at her reviews (and her bookings) and, after a phone call, I was delighted to give her the opportunity to have a holiday in coastal Qld while I went for my overseas holiday. Everyone wins! She did an excellent job. Cat was as aloof as always, but came around at dinner time. The house was spotless, plants watered, and even a cooked meal in the freezer to help me recover from jetlag. She washed and refuelled my car that I gave her use of. She is amazing. I do not hesitate to recommend her to anyone wanting their pets cared for and their home looked after while they are away. I would certainly use her again.

Words cannot express the praise I could describe for our house sitter Karen. I can highly recommend her for any discerning home owner needing as house sitter. Karen looked after our home and very spoilt cat beyond what I could have imagined. I returned from holiday to a perfectly clean home, gardens well maintained and cat well looked after and not stressed by my absence. I found Karen to be honest, trustworthy, reliable, compassionate, thoughtful and caring. I have booked her for my next two holidays knowing I can relax and know that when I return that everything will be perfect. I cannot thank her enough! Lynette East - homeowner.

We had Karen to house sit for us for quite an extended period. On return our dog Jo Jo was well cared for as was the house and yard. Everything was neat tidy and clean. A good job.

Karen is a fantastic house sitter. From meeting her beforehand, she knew exactly how to treat our pets. House left clean and tidy, you wouldn’t have known she was here! Thankyou for the updates and the sit. Hope you can stay again sometime!
