Allan and Ngaere were a dream to have. They did way more than expected and took excellent care of our animals. They made our first house sitting experience a great one. Highly recommend.
 
CASEY (Vale View QLD QLD, Dec 2023 - 2 weeks 2 nights) From Aussie House Sitters
Allan and Ngaere were so accomodating during their recent house sit. Due to weather and health circumstances out of our control we had to come early. Lucky for us Allan & Ngaere were very understanding! The house was spotless, the dogs had obviously been well stimulated (that’s a big call with two staffies under one year old). I really enjoyed having them both here the night before we left so that we could easily run through everything for the house and pups (plus share some Aussie travel ... MORE

We found our house, pet and yard in good order upon our return. Having a meal cooked for us on the first night back was really appreciated. Thank you Alan and Gnaire. 😊
 
JANELLE (Sharon QLD, Oct 2023 - 3 weeks) From Aussie House Sitters
Jamie and I had a very relaxing holiday knowing Allan and Ngaere were looking after our pets. They are clearly animal lovers and coming back to a pristine house was also awesome. Absolutely recommend these guys!
 
PAM (Grasstree Beach QLD, Sep 2023 - 2 weeks) From Aussie House Sitters
Allan & Ngaere were absolutely amazing! Our home and animals were very well looked after. Allan and Ngaere were very clear with communication and we felt very comfortable from the moment we first met. Amazing couple with a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for taking such care of our home, furry & feathered family.
 
KASIE (East Feluga QLD, Jun 2023 - 1 week) From Aussie House Sitters
Allan and Ngaere done an awesome job of looking after our two dogs and our home. Being our first experience with house sitters, Allan and Ngaere made it really easy for us. They are both super friendly, easy to chat too and very genuine people. Not only were our dogs well looked after, but the house was also clean and tidy, lawns mowed, and Ngaere treated us to a beautiful home cooked meal the night we returned. We highly recommend them and would definitely have them back anytime to ... MORE
 
MICHELLE (Howard Springs NT, Mar 2023 - 1 week 6 days) From Aussie House Sitters
This was our first time working with a house sitter and although apprehensive Allan and Ngaere were just amazing! Immediately we were comfortable with them on our first meeting. They are very congenial, honest, friendly and down to earth people who looked after our pups and property above and beyond our expectations. Their communication was exceptional (better than ours...) and overall their experience in house sitting was evident. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending ... MORE
 
VERONICA (Buchfelde SA, Nov 2022 - 2 weeks 2 days) From Aussie House Sitters
I was so lucky to have Allan and Ngaere look after my home and chooks. It was also lucky that their long motorhome just fitted in the driveway. They did a wonderful job of chicken care having looked after poultry a lot in their lives, They left my house as pristine as an old house could possibly be and are friendly and reliable. If you need really good house sitters I can truly recommend them.
 
FRANCES (Kununurra WA, May 2022 - 2 weeks) From Aussie House Sitters
Everything we had to do with Allan & Ngaere was great, from contact to ongoing communication - they were cheerful and confidence-inspiring. Unfortunately, in the lead up to our planned departure, three of our family progressively contracted COVID and so we were forced into isolation and had to cancel our holiday. Allen & Ngaere, while obviously disappointed, were very understanding of our situation, and accepted it as an unfortunate fact of our times. We'd be happy to see them visit anytime for ... MORE
 
MICK (Walkaway WA, Apr 2022 - 1 week 5 days) From Aussie House Sitters
Thank you Allan and Ngaere for looking after our home, garden and chickens and to love it as much as we do. We would strongly recommend Allan and Ngaere to anyone needing to have someone take good care of your house, garden and pets. We felt at ease as soon as we had met and were confident that any hiccups would be dealt with. Communication was great and we messaged each other regularly prior to the sit. The icing on the cake was a lovely home cooked meal when we arrived home after travelling ... MORE
 
VICKI (CHITTERING WA, Feb 2022 - 9 days) From Aussie House Sitters
Allan and Ngaere looked after our house and puppy and we couldn't be happier with them. It was a delight to have them look after our home. Their communication was absolutely fantastic and I would highly recommend them.
 
GARRY (Australind WA, Dec 2021 - 1 week 6 days) From Aussie House Sitters
No rating I want to say a big thanks to Allan and Ngaere for looking after our home and much loved dogs. They are very easy going people and take their job seriously. An example was when our dog had got hurt with a large cut on his leg and they took him to the vet and ensured he was well cared for, additionally they kept us in the loop via the phone. I felt so happy that Rusty our dog was in excellent hands knowing Allen and Ngaere were caught for him. Another example is coming home to firewood cut for ... MORE
PAUL AND MEL (Stockyard Creek SA, Jul 2021 - 1 month 1 week) From Aussie House Sitters
We immediately felt comfortable with Alan and Ngaere. They are friendly, communicative and asked all the right questions. Their attention to detail and ability to deal with things out of the ordinary that needed attention on a couple of occasions was great. It was a delight to return home to manicured lawns, tidy house and a delicious meal. Thankyou Alan and Ngaere for your farm sitting.
 
KYM (BORDERTOWN SA, Feb 2021 - 2 weeks) From Aussie House Sitters
Very very happy with this couple Highly recommended
 
CORALIE (Vivonne Bay SA, Nov 2019 - 2 weeks) From Aussie House Sitters
This is the first time I have used Aussie Housesitters and Allan and Ngaere have set the bar very high. As soon as I met them I was reassured that everthing would be well looked after in my absence. I arrived home to a warm welcome and a house that was clean and tidy...... even the car had been washed. Most importantly, my 2 fur babies, Willow and Bonnie were relaxed and happy and had obviously been well cared for and loved while I was away. Bonnie is anxious when situations are different ...

VAL (Ruse/Campbelltown NSW, Aug 2019 - 4 weeks) From Aussie House Sitters
Alan & Nyere house sat for us for almost 5 weeks from 9th July till 12th August 2019. They were very pleasant, highly professional and totally dedicated in looking after our property, including two dogs. They had looked after our house as if it was their own. They also got on well with our neighbours. Alan is truly a champion "dog whisperer". We were pleasantly surprised to note that the dogs were responding to new commands Alan had used while we were away. Very responsible and extremely ... MORE
 
VANI (Whitford North Island, Jul 2019 - Nearly 5 weeks) From Kiwi House Sitters
Allen and Ngaere were exceptional house sitter everyone seem very happy with the care they received while we were away.i am not sure if we were even missed. We came home to very happy pets and a very clean house would have them back anytime
 
CHERYL (Kaiapoi South Island, May 2019 - 1 week 1 day) From Kiwi House Sitters
Allan and Ngaere are approachable, friendly and great with animals. Excellent communication and were adaptable when our circumstances changed. House was left very clean and tidy and the bed linen had been washed! Thank you for looking after our pets so well, meant for a stress free holiday for us to know that we had caring reliable people.
 
KAROLE (Waitati South Island, Apr 2019 - 1 week 1 day) From Kiwi House Sitters
Allan and Ngaere were absolutely fantastic! The house was clean, the lawns mowed and weeds magically disappeared. These 2 are a very interesting couple and I enjoyed our conversations. They were Thoughtful, honest and genuine. After they left, It's the first time my littlest dog has ever moped around for a couple of days, missing them and looking out for their return. I can't say enough good things about these two. Real gems! Keep enjoying your travels and THANK YOU.
 
VIKI (Otatara South Island, Mar 2019 - 2 weeks 3 days) From Kiwi House Sitters
Allan and Ngaere looked after of our dog, Max and our property over the Christmas period. After speaking with them before our departure I was confident that they would do a great job and so we were able to relax over our Christmas break. Upon our return the house was cleaner than it was before we left, Max was soft and fluffy from being brushed and the lawns had been mown. We would recommend Allan and Ngaere to anyone looking for someone to care for their animals and home.
 
ERIN (Trentham North Island, Dec 2018 - 2 weeks 4 days) From Kiwi House Sitters
Allan and Ngaere were ideal housesitters, able to adapt to the tasks that were needed to be done and adventurous in exploring the area(when fine enough!) Our tabby cat was well looked after as were the other animals. They communicated really well before and after the housesit and left the house clean and tidy and linen washed. We would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.
 
LIZ (Waipukurau North Island, Dec 2018 - 1 week 1 day) From Kiwi House Sitters
No rating Allan and Ngaere are a delightful couple who we knew immediately upon meeting them would be perfect house sitters for our two small woofs. They have a strong sense of responsibility and made sure they knew what they needed to know before we left. Our main brief to them was to love our wee boys and make them feel safe. We could see the boys bonding with them even before we left and we came home to happy, healthy boys who obviously thought Allan and Ngaere were the bees knees - not surprising ... MORE
SHER (East Tamaki Heights North Island, Sep 2018 - 1 week 6 days) From Kiwi House Sitters
No rating My partner and I were fortunate enough to have Allan and Ngaere housesit fir us whilst we were on an overseas holiday. While we were away they took excellent care of our home and even better care of our foster dog. They would regularly take our dog fir walks and fed him exactly how we asked them to . The house was in perfect condition on our return . Allan and Ngaere were exceptionally thoughtful and caring with our home . We would highly recommend Allan and Ngaere to any potential people ...
