About Leon & Renee
The Travelling Trio!
We are Leon and Renee (engaged couple) and Lily, a 9 month old Golden Retriever. We love the great outdoors and cozy nights at home, watching movies and shark documentaries (though Lily prefers watching bird docos). We are tidy, caring and responsible people who enjoy a red wine every now and then and a good yarn inbetween. ...
The Travelling Trio!
We are Leon and Renee (engaged couple) and Lily, a 9 month old Golden Retriever. We love the great outdoors and cozy nights at home, watching movies and shark documentaries (though Lily prefers watching bird docos). We are tidy, caring and responsible people who enjoy a red wine every now and then and a good yarn inbetween. Our love of the bush has endowed Lily with some fine outdoor sense and, though still a puppy, is well on her way to being a sensible, but energetic young lady.
Renee grew up on a farm in New Zealand before moving to Townsville. Up until a year ago, she had a 19 year old ragdoll cat. She has been surrounded by animals (both farm and domestic (and sometimes wild due to her job)) her whole life and has a strict “train with treats” policy when it comes to animals. Leon grew up in Townsville with his family dog, Abby (still talked about as a legend at family gatherings). Having started his career in the military, Leon is now a personal trainer with a huge love for ragdoll cats (thanks Renee).
With a strong love for one another and upon the passing of Renee’s kitty, Renee and Leon decided that Lily was a perfect match for their active lifestyle and who has now been halfway around the country with them (and an absolute joy, at that). She loves other dogs and will play until the cows come home (probably longer). She knows what a cat is, though unfortunately has only had contact with Renee’s mum’s grumpy old cat.
Renee and Leon are both strong believers that pets are family. Therefore, Lily lives the same life we do and is treated with the same respect we give one another. In this regard, we all come as a package deal.
Why we want to house sit
We have just moved to Perth for a new career all the way from Townsville, North QLD and want to have the flexibility of experiencing different places around town before we have to commit to a 12 month-plus lease.
As a pet owner ourselves, along with previous pet sitting duties for friends in Townsville, we know how much freedom and peace of mind it gives other pet owners to know that someone is there, caring for their fluff baby, making sure that they’re safe, have company and above all else, are loved! It makes sense for us to care for someone else’s pet as we take care of Lily. It not only gives you peace of mind that your pet is well cared for, but also allows our Lily to socialise with other animals rather than her boring old humans.
Our experience
Having both grown up with animals all of our lives, it is second nature to care and nurture our furry family members.
Over the past few years friends and clients of Leon’s have been able to reliably call upon us for pet and house sitting. Responsibilities have ranged from dogs and cats at home, through to 14 different animals at an estate (5 dogs, 2 cats, 5 fish and 2 birds!).
Daily walks, plenty of pats and plays are something we see as a pleasure and not a duty. We love spending time with animals and actively take dogs for walks and snuggle with kitties (on cat terms only of course).

Leon and Reney have house sat and looked after my fur babies a number of times. I highly recommend them they are very caring. The fur babies have always been happy when I get home and the house always how we left it.
