Ron and I have been married for 27 years and in that time have lived in many parts of Australia as Ron was in the Navy for 20 years. After getting out of the Navy Ron has worked in the construction industry and is a jack of all trades/ Michele has recently completed a degree in Community Development and Sociology. We have now lived in Perth for 22 years after building a house here in 1994. We are both non smokers and very moderate drinkers.
We have 3 amazing adult children who are now free in the world as you can imagine while they were growing up we had a number of cats, dogs, rabbits even the occasional hermit crab. Ron also grew up on a farm so is experienced with a variety of farm animals as well. We love animals and miss having them around
We have spent the last three years traveling Europe on a motorcycle and housesitting in a variety of countries. We are now at home in Perth and want to continue our sitting to help people out while they are on holidays.
We have had experience caring for a variety of animals and houses so if you need someone to ensure your home is well looked after while you are away please get in touch... at this stage we are only considering sits in the Southern suburbs of Perth Western Australia,
Why we want to house sit
We know the importance of feeling secure about your home and pets while you are travelling. We loved housesitting while we were travelling and enjoy spending time with animals but do not want to commit to having pet again yet. We believe it is a win/win situation for us all.
Our experience
We have had experience looking after a variety of animals of all ages. From new born kittens and puppies to elderly dogs and cats and all ages inbetween. We have gained important skills to ensure your animal is loved while you are away. We understand the security of knowing your home and animals are well looked after.
We are homeowners so you can be assured we can deal with any emergencies. Ron is a handyman and we both enjoy pottering in the garden.
Ron also has a current WA Police Check.

We entrusted Ron and michelle to look after our home and fur babies for nearly 5 weeks while we travelled in Europe. As this was our first experience with house sitting we were a little apprehensive about the whole process. We met with Ron and Michelle with plenty of time before our trip and this put our minds at ease. We instantly felt that we were comfortable with leaving them in charge. Upon returning our house was very clean and tidy and just as we left it. Our dogs seemed happy and healthy. Throughout the trip we received photo updates and information about the dogs which again put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our trip without any concerns for their wellbeing. It was comforting to know the dogs were in their own surroundings and were r ceiling a walk each day and company. We have since seen Ron and Michelle and the way in which the dogs responded to them further proved they were happy in their care. We would not hesitate to use Ron and Michelle again in the future and hope we are lucky enough to do so.

Michele and Ron looked after our home and fur-babies Meg and Elsie 15-21 July. It was the first time we had used house-sitters through a web-site and we were very nervous about the whole experience. I was especially nervous about leaving my eldest dog Elsie as she is blind and has various health issues and has daily medications. Meg is younger and full of energy which in itself can also be a lot to handle!
Michele and Ron made the whole experience quite stress-free. The communication was great before we left and regular emails with photos were sent whilst we were away. On our return the dogs were happy and safe and the house was lovely and clean. I am thrilled they have agreed to come back and do it all again in November for us!
Many thanks Loren and Neil, Meg and Elsie xxxx- Organised

Michele and Ron were delightful house sitters.
Our puppies loved them immediately and Michele sent texts to let me know all was OK.
We would recommend them without a doubt.Michele and Ron were delightful house sitters.
