About Vicki

What Previous Clients Have Said:
"My cats love you more than they love us. It makes us feel less guilty about leaving them when we know that they don't care 😅"

"Highly recommend. Vicki house sat for us and had lots to do with caring for our dogs, cats and plants to water. Vicki did a beautiful job caring for our beloved pets. Thanks Vicki!"

"Vicki put us at ease straight away. Vicki’s experience and calm demeanour meant she settled in easily and took our quirky pets in her stride with no issues at all. She treated our animals like her own, even taking initiative to find some soothing music online for our two dogs as to help them relax and sleep through the night with a new person in the house."

"We have no hesitation in recommending Vicki as a house/pet sitter and have done so for close friends and family already."


About Me:
I've been housesitting on and off for the last 20 years, but in the last 5 or so it's really become my calling.
I have regular private clients who book me for up to a couple weeks to keep their furry family company in their own space, where the pets are most comfortable. 

I am particularly passionate about reducing anxiety in pets who may be affected by separation. I use animal calming music and other methods to put your pets at ease.

Sometimes my girlfriend may visit, so they'll have even more pats!!

I can do home check-ins or short-/long-term housesits all over Adelaide.

If I'm staying in your home while you're away, I try to make my presence as unnoticeable as possible, other than happy pets when you return. I have mobility issues so please tell me if you have stairs, a steep driveway, etc.

I work in the city Wed-Sun, sometimes working late on Friday nights. So your pets will need to be okay with some time alone... if not, let's have a chat cos I can sometimes choose my hours and I'm sure we can work something out that suits your pets. 

Live in a different area of Adelaide? No problems. Get in touch. I do have some flexibility to move around.
