About

Hi,

I'm Grace, I'm responsible and honest.

You can feel confident leaving your fur babies and home for me to sit while you're away.

I have lived in the Eastern suburbs in the past.

I am a non-smoker, and prefer to housesit non-smoking houses and I own my own car.

I'm passionate about animals, love movies, art, music, and comedy.

I'm happy to provide references and police check on request (in my details) . I have done many repeat sits for those I've cared for their homes and animals in the past.

I send photos via text or Whatsapp or text so you know your furbabies are happy in my care.

I have cared for: cats, dogs, fish, chickens, frogs, blue tongue lizards & goats in previous sits, I've been housesitting for over 5 years and completed over 150 housesits.

I have given medication to both dogs and cats in previous sits. I have completed a Pet 1st Aid course recently.

In exchange for accommodation I will maintain the cleanliness and security of your home and garden and am happy to stay in regular contact with you on Whatsapp or email/text including photos of your pets (sorry I don't have an iphone so can't do face time), while you travel.

Please contact me if you wish to discuss your upcoming sit.

Thank you,
I will be interstate next year for the following dates: 6/4-8/6/24

I can highly recommend Grace. I felt very safe leaving her to look after my home and my 2 elderly cats and my quite lovely but challenging red heeler. Grace has a lovely way with animals and is very responsible. My animals all decided they wanted to cuddle up with her in the bed at night and Grace was great with this. She took great care of the house and left it looking great. She is also a great communicator. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

Grace recently house-sat for us and she did a wonderful job in caring for our pets and house. We had some unfortunate travel issues and had to return sooner than planned and Grace was incredibly understanding and flexible to help us out. Would happily welcome her back and recommend her to anyone looking for a Housesitter.

Grace was the best house-sitter we could have wished for! We didn’t have to worry once about our home or cat while traveling. Our cat loved her, she would send updates on what good friends they were becoming and it usually is very hard to even get him to come out of hiding. The house was just the way we left it. Can’t recommend her enough.

Grace S looked after our babies beautifully and kept us well informed as to their antics. It was terrific that Grace was able to extend her stay with us, due to flooding up North that delayed our movements. Would highly recommend and would have back in the future. Thanks Grace for allowing us to holiday, knowing the animals and the house were so well cared for.

Grace looked after our young cat Murray, our home and our garden in January 2022 when we were away for 2 weeks. She sent photos and updates during her stay and it was clear that Murray was content and happy with Grace's care. He was calm in her presence and she clearly was gentle with him. The house was spotless when we got home and the garden clearly had been watered and cared for. We recommend Grace and hope we can book her again in the future. happy to provide a verbal reference if any one would like chat further please send me a message.

We found Grace to be very reliable and trustworthy. She looked after our house in Mid June 2021 for 8 weeks. She was flexible with commencement and finish dates as we were working around Covid lockdowns. When we returned the house was spotless and everything was in order. We look forward to her sitting for us in the future and would be happy to take a call from anyone looking to Grace car for their home. Glenda 0431709248

3rd January, 2022 To whom it may concern, Grace house sit our house and took care our our two cats Fire and Raccy when we went away for 10 days over Christmas. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She sent us gorgeous updates of Fire and Raccy, videos and photos. You could see the bond between them growing each day. And could see that Grace was very sensitive, kind and loving towards them. I am very grateful that we found her, and I hope she can look after our cats again in the future as I’m sure our cats will also love that! She had cleaned the house before we got back. And took care of our garden. She was very respectful and we had great, clear communication. Thank you so much Grace! Yours sincerely, Xadi and Andy Xadi Walsh m- 0431717556 e- xadiwalsh@hotmail.com

Grace looked after my two large dogs, my fickle cat and two chickens. She was thoughtful, very neat (I’m sure the house was cleaner when I got back) and perfectly responsible. I had a lovely time away and never worried about a thing.

Grace did an amazing job looking after our dog, cat, and plants. She sent us constant updates and we felt confident the whole trip that Grace was doing a fantastic job looking after our furbabies. She even cooked Scooby home made dog biscuits! Scooby's coat looks healthier than when we left. Highly recommended and will definately use her again.

We were so lucky to have found Grace on Happy House Sitters and will definitely be asking her to look after our fur babies again! From the moment we met Grace we knew she was a genuine animal lover. She was very professional and reliable, offering to travel out to our house to meet us and our pets before confirming the housesit. On the weeks leading up to the housesit, Grace touched base, and sent us a comprehensive checklist of all information she might need during her stay, including feeding/walking the animals, household duties (i.e. bin night) and anything else that would ensure her stay was seamless. While we were away, Grace kept us regularly updated with pictures of our beloved dog and cat, as well as what everyone was up to :) On arriving back home, everything was as it was when we left. Grace took amazing care of our home and backyard, as well as the animals! I must say our dog was rather sad and confused to see her packing and leaving. Overall, I would highly recommend Grace for a housesit. Her caring, professional and reliable nature puts you at ease while away from your home. Thanks Grace! From Courtney, Matt, Eddie & Bronx

Grace is reliable and kind. She cared for our cat very well and sent photos with updates. Grace was easy-going but also thorough, which made me feel relaxed. I would definitely trust her as a house sitter again.

Grace recently house sat for me and took excellent care of my cat and home. When I arrived home from my weekend away everything was clean and tidy. Charlie had been fed properly and medicine administered twice a day as requested. Charlie requires special care as he is elderly and has Asthma. Grace was quick to learn how to administer the medication and Charlie was in good health and spirits when I returned. Would recommend Grace as a responsible and caring house/pet sitter and I'm very glad I found someone I can trust with my home and pet. Thank you Grace :)

To whom it may concern I am delighted to be writing a referee report for Grace. Grace house sat for my fiancé and I for almost 2 weeks whilst we were overseas. This was our first time using a house sitting site and we were a little apprehensive at the beginning. Grace made contact with us and we arranged to meet at our home. Grace was lovely and had a great charisma. More importantly my fur babies warmed to her immediately and my concerns were alleviated. Grace was kind enough to house sit for us and emailed through a question & answer sheet concerning running the house and animals. We own a very boisterous 18 month old Rottweiler. Grace was very patient with him and able to take him for his walks & allow him and our two cats to sleep on the bed with her! Grace sent us daily photos of all our pets which helped ease my home sickness as I knew the animals were being well cared for! When we returned the house was spotless and the animals were happy and healthy!! I could not recommend Grace enough and will definitely be contacting her again when we need another house sit! Thanks heaps Grace!! Regards Kara and James k_j2109@hotmail.com
