Completed 4 month Cat Sitting with Phoebe

House Sit Review

Recently, we completed a four month house garden and pet sit in Port Adelaide. We were so sorry to leave – packing the car wasn’t fun and leaving our faourite cat was sad. She was a real sweetheart – one

Our Reviews from Home & Pet Owners

 I was very happy with John

 when he looked after my cat and home recently. He let me know when he had arrived and sent regular updates while I was away, to let me know how things were going with my cat. He also sent me several photos during the course of his stay and I could tell from the pics that my cat was very comfortable with him. That was a big relief. Communication with him and Julieanne was outstanding and easy. They were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Thanks John, I’d definitely have you back again in the future.

Julieanne and John are very experienced house sitters

which was very reassuring with my new puppy. They came to meet him prior to the house sit and were great communicators, sending photos and updates while I was away. They took great care of my home, everything neat and tidy when I came back, and they also attended to some garden chores, weeding and watering. And a relaxed and happy little dog greeted me when I returned. I would definitely recommend them for house sitting. Thank you

Julieanne and John were wonderful house and pet sitters.

We have 3 cats and a dog which where all happy and healthy when we returned. They loved our beautiful, gentle Border Collie, Scotty. Two of our cats required medication and that was managed well. We were kept up to date with messages, photos and queries. They even let us know that there had been no rain for a couple of weeks. This was unusual for May and our large garden was drying out. They followed our instructions to restore operation of the complex irrigation system. John mowed the lawn for us by managing our ride on mower. All our many indoor plants thrived – my hobby is African Violets – and all of them survived under their care. Our house was spotless on our return. Thank you Julieanna and John, you are highly recommended.

Julieanne was fantastic looking after our very elderly cat.

She was gentle, loving and easily coped with Misty’s medication and night feeds. She communicated with us everyday and looked after our home thoughtfully. We are so grateful she could help us. We felt comfortable knowing our loved family pet was in good hands and we were able to relax and enjoy our holiday. I would highly recommend her.

After a very long trip we came home to a clean, well kept house.

The garden had been very well maintained and plants were well cared for. We received pictures of the animals while we were away aswell which was so nice. The animals were happy, fed and healthy. They even made sure the animals were fed before we left so it was one less thing for us to worry about when we came home after a long day of travelling. Highly recommend John and Julieanne. We couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much

Once again it was wonderful to have Julienne and John look after our very elderly cat Misty.

 Being an elderly cat Misty needed that bit of extra care. Julieanne and John also looked after our home and garden. It was so nice to walk into a beautifully clean house at the end of a holiday which we would not have had without finding someone like Julieanne to care for Misty.

We thank Julieanne and John for taking good care

of our house and fur babies. Both house and garden were kept clean and tidy. Erik and Lisette were very contented, even the fish in the pond looked happy! Communication was great, even to post some photos to us while we were away! We will certainly offer them to housesit in future need, hoping that they will be available.

Phil, Gawler SA, June 17 days

Julieanne and John looked after our home and 2 small dogs

 and our aviary of cockateils for 3 weeks. They did a great job, and we really appreciated the care they took. Communication was very good, with regular updates and photos, and they asked questions if unsure of things. They let us know if they weren’t happy to do some things, so alternatives could be sorted, like taking Bonnie to the vet for her fortnightly injection. The cockateils and dogs were happy and healthy on our return and house and garden looked lovely. Very happy to recommend Julianne and John and would love to have them back again.

Best skills: Pets well cared for, Followed instructions, Home neat and clean, Maintained garden, Punctual, Resourceful

Julianne & John did a wonderful job of house and pet sitting

for our trip away. The garden was well cared for, even with the heatwave. The pets were happy to see us, but obviously well loved and cared for during our absence. A lovely couple who I would highly recommend for house/pet sitting. Reliable, communicated as needed and more importantly our fur babies were happy and our home well taken care during our trip. Thanks again to you both for allowing us to have a worry free visit to family overseas.

Greenock SA, Feb 2023 - 4 weeks

Julieanne and John were excellent house sitters.

Our first impression was that they were very friendly, organised and professional, taking notes and asking important questions. While we were away, we received regular updates and photos of our pets. This helped us to be at ease. They were very mindful of our space and asked for permission to have friends or family visit. They provided an overview of any issues i.e., trouble with a bathroom sink, or pet mishaps. There was nothing substantial resulting from their stay. Our house was kept in identical condition to how it was left. Our pets appeared to love them, and this was important to us. Highly recommend engaging with Julieanne and John if you’re looking for trustworthy housesitters. We would definitely use them again in the future! House care Garden care Pet care Communication

Julieanne and John did a beautiful job taking care

of my home and 1 year old Labradoodle. As she is a breeding dog and soon to come on heat this was no issue at all and she was kept safe. I was updated with photos and information on how my dog was doing. Arrived home to a perfectly tidy and clean house. Highly recommend Julieanne and John and would happily have them stay again.

We had a great experience having John and Julieanne

house sit for us in August. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned, the animals were happy and healthy and the plants had been watered and pruned.

Julieanne was able to come at very short notice, which was very much appreciated.

 Leo was completely at ease with her from the very start, and was totally relaxed and content when we returned home. Very happy customer!

What a pleasure to come home to a neat,

clean home and well tended garden after 5 weeks away. Julieanne and John were the perfect house sitters and we will definitely use them again if their schedule allows it.

4 months with Cutest Cat and a Lovely Big Garden

We had organised and met with John and Julianne quite a long time before the sit and had great communication prior to, and over the four months we were away, Julianne sent regular videos and photos of our cat Phoebe, who I’m sure never even missed us. The house was immaculate on our return and despite an extreme heat wave the garden and pot plants were looking lovely, John had even gone out and bought plants to transform our back raised flower bed from summer to winter. We would highly recommend Julianne and John as house sitters for your home, garden and pet/s. Jo and Phil Smith

Julieanne and John spent a month at our house

with our quirky dog Dave. Communication was excellent and on our return it was obvious Dave was well cared for and the house was in excellent condition. We are hoping they are available to help us out again next year!

Thank you for taking such good care of our home.

Thank you both so much for leaving our house so spotlessly clean and tidy. It was such a lovely welcome to come home to. It was wonderful to find so many eggs waiting for us too. The boys enjoyed a huge serve of scramble for dinner! And the milk was greatly appreciated as we arrived home after the shops had closed. Thanks again so much to you both for taking such good care of everything for us.

 Our mum had Julieanne and Jon care for us

 while she was away and we fell in love😻🐶. They loved us like their own and took me for lots of walks. Silly Max played tricks on them and made them laugh, I thought she was dumb but Julieanne and Jon thought she was cute. I helped Jon with mowing my yard and he did a way better job than my mum does. Julieanne kept Max’s poo litter nice and clean. I think cats smell, especially my cat, Max. I sulked for two days after mum left but Julieanne and Jon gave me lots of huggles and I felt very safe. I keep looking at mum with my big puppy eyes, asking her ‘where are they and are they coming back’ ? I hope they do because they’re my favourite new friends. Thank you Julieanne and Jon, I think you’re both awesome. Big big big hugs George. Xxxxxxx
