About Ross & Rolina

Hi...we are a married couple Ross and Rolina. I'm Ross..I run an international sportswear company (Full Force Clothing) and Rolina is a nurse. Our 2 wonderful children "Milo" and "Tiaro" Chocolate and Lilac Point Siamese are never far away!
We share a beautiful home with pool in Frankston, Australia..which we recently totally redesigned, renovated and relandscaped ourselves.
Why we want to house sit
We travel extensively,both with business and for pleasure. We try to make 2 major (1 month + trips) per year and 3 or 4 minor 1-2 week trips. We have lived in different countries and miss the feeling of having "roots" when we travel via hotels etc. My workload is totally reliant on Internet...so recently discovering "Housesitters" opened a whole new reality and real life choice. We've always prefer staying in local community when possible as opposed to tourist areas when travelling...and the opportunity to add new friends around the world and of course many wonderful new furry friends was too great to ignore!
The pleasure in caring for them..and feeling their reactions turn to affection...is just so rewarding.
Our experience
As proactive homeowners we are very used to dealing with the day to day maintenance problems that can suddenly arise around any property.
Having been brought up with both dogs and cats (and various farm animals) from an early age in New Zealand...to owning and operating a very popular Kennels/Cattery(Cranbourne Park) in Victoria, Australia for 8 years, I can say confidently that we will look after both your home and pets to the high standards that you should expect.
We can also administer any medications..either oral or injectable.
We suggest an initial phone call,meet up via Skype or face to face, to make sure we are good fit for each other and also before or on handover day...to go over routines before you head away for a worry free break!
We are extremely flexible...Please feel free to ask any questions...and don't hesitate to ask for the Skype connection...

I cannot give Ross and Rolina a higher recommendation. They have the highest integrity and highly trustworthy.

The worst thing that could ever happen to a pet owner, is that your family pet gets hurt while you are travelling. My worst nightmaire came true.
Bailey (our kitten) decided to fall off our stairwell, which is about 20 ft high. Ross was amazing, he remained calm and took Bailey to 2 different vets, one to get her checked for anything that was broken and the second to a qualified orthopaedic vet...Bailey ended up staying in the hospital for 5 days.
Ross and Rolina went to the vets on several occasions to see how she was, having to catch Taxi's and even paid for the entire vet bill in advance, until we returned and was able to compensate them back.
Ross called me daily and sent me regular updates (Despite being in the UK and a 8 hour time difference) and when Bailey got home, they looked after her really well during her recovery; giving her medication and lots of love.
They left the house in immaculate condition, even washed all the bed linen. They were even kind enough to leave us chocolates and a card... despite everything they had gone through.
The kindest loving couple I could ever recommend for looking after your pet.
If you love your pet as much as we do... I would not even hesitate at choosing this wonderful couple... I would recommend them as your number 1 choice...in the worst situation they were totally amazing.
Bailey is now very well... and back to her beautiful loving self...thanks to this wonderful couple. Luckily we have now fully cat proofed the stairs, so this never happens again.- Organised

Out dog bonded with them immediately, and we suspect they kinda liked our darling as well. They are responsible, reliable, honest and lovely down to earth people. You will miss out, if you don't grab them when you can.- Organised
