We are new to Happy House Sitters (Feb 2014) and already impressed with the quality of house sits and the clear presentation, allowing easy choice of applications and straightforward communications between owners and sitters. We are enjoying our first sit (Mar 2014) and have already arranged two more. Thank you to Happy House Sitters and well done on a great service.

Happy House sitters is a great service. I have belonged to other house sitting sites but this one is better with more choice and I love it is in Australia. I am missing having a dog but now enjoying travelling around looking after other homeowners pets.
I have been to Mt Eliza on the long weekend when all other accommodation was booked out and looking forward to going to Albert Park just around the corner from "The Block" and my daughter in Melbourne. Love having my taste of the city while living in the country. Love walking dogs and keeping them happy while their owners enjoy time away. It works both ways for sitters and home owners.

Thank you Happy House sitters for your wonderful service. We joined start of 2013 with your company and three others and have not looked back. Met wonderful people and pets, stayed in exciting places,explored and had adventures learning about local communities as we go.Your service response is fast and as a company you react quickly to whats out in the market. We enjoy your on line site and found it to be user friendly and secure when first making contact with others.We are learning to slow down our bookings with so many beautiful places to visit along the way - in saying that we are booked through to Feb 2014.!!!

Thanks so much for telling us about your exciting adventures through www.happyhousesiiters.com.au We are thrilled you have met so wonderful people and seen so much of our beautiful country. apologies for the delay in responding to you. Glad you have booked up all over for so many months. Please continue to enjoy housesitting with happyhouse sitters.

We wanted to travel around this amazing country and found Happy House Sitters. We accepted a house-sit minding 2 dogs, 2 cats, 6 chickens and 2 guinea fowl for six weeks in beautiful Bundaberg, QLD. What a wonderful experience! We are already booked for several more sits and are looking forward to our travelling over the next few years. The Happy House Sitters site is so easy to navigate. A great way to see this country!

Thanks for your review. Bentleigh East is a great suburb - but equally it is great to travel away!! I love Bunderberg QLD. Glad you enjoyed all the furry animals!! Fabulous that you enjoyed your #happyhousesitting

I have been using Happy House Sitters regulary for over a year. I had no idea I could review them till today. I use their website to find new home owners a lot.
Most of my year is booked for the area I choose to go to. I can sit from 1 day to a couple of years depending on who needs what and for how long.
Home owners are lovely, I have become friends with each new family I meet.
On website as a sitter, I fill out my profile with details including filling out a section allowing me to tick what pets I am happy to look after, if I have a working with police check, references (which are posted onto my profile somewhere for people to read) and more.
I sometimes get around to detailing booked sits on the website in the profile section.
Good thing is, a lot of my sits that I found on this website has given me more opportunities purely by word of mouth to their neighbours, friends and family.
It is free for home owner to post an ad but for sitter there is a good fee. Not a problem though because the money spent in registering is covered 100 times over compared with renting or paying a mortgage.
Lastly, Happy House Sitters have the most ads from home owners and from house sitters.

Thanks for using Happy house sitters. we are thrilled that you have met such lovely families. Thriled that you have saved money on rent. All the best

I have used this service 4 times over the past 3 years and couldn't have been more happy with the sitters I was fortunate enough to find through this wonderful service.

Great! Yes, we are very lucky to have so many wonderful sitters.

I was very happy with this service. There is nothing worse than to think your pets are going to starve while you go away. Lovely people and fantastic job with looking after our pets. Would you this service again! :)

Thanks for your feedback. We agree that pets always need to be cared for when you are away. Animal welfare is always our first priority!

Hi Malcolm & Ruth,

Just wanted to let you know that we were very impressed with the new site !!!!
I think it is much better than the old layout and very easy to use, also a picture paints a
thousand words- the video was clear and explained very well, just as it happens.

Another thing I really liked is the simplicity of the site, as mature people, we dont like
all the jargon that technology creates to make things more complicated.
The pricing page is easy to understand.

It was good to see what Ruth looked like, I would have liked to have seen you also Malcolm.
Thank you for helping us out when we have needed to ring you, it means alot to talk to a real
person instead of a machine, it makes it more personalised.

Regards

Lyn

Dear Lyn
Thanks for your lovely comments. So glad you find the site easy to use.

Regards
Malcolm & Ruth

I'm a housesitter and have been using Happy Housesitters for the past 12 months and renewing my annual subcription as a write this endorsement. I've also used two other house sitting agents and can say that Happy House Sitters is by far the best of the 3. They are not the cheapest but they are definately the best value for money!

Hi Steve. Thanks for your review. We're really happy that it's been so successful for you. You are correct that cheap doesn't necessarly = value for money.

Thanks agin
Malcolm & Ruth
