Hi!
We are a very friendly and caring retired Aussie couple (non smokers)coming over to New Zealand for a couple of months to visit our daughter who now lives in Auckland.

We are an active couple who like to explore, go on walks, meet new people, but also have our quiet time to read a book or watch a film and most of all to snuggle up with a furry friend or two on the couch in the evening (Down time is definitely a necessity for us)

Hi!
We are a very friendly and caring retired Aussie couple (non smokers)coming over to New Zealand for a couple of months to visit our daughter who now lives in Auckland.

We are an active couple who like to explore, go on walks, meet new people, but also have our quiet time to read a book or watch a film and most of all to snuggle up with a furry friend or two on the couch in the evening (Down time is definitely a necessity for us)

We have thoroughly enjoyed our four years of house sitting in Australia( also 2 months in the UK) and thought it would be lovely to have some nice "homely" stays in New Zealand and look after someone else’s pets, gardens and pools whilst they enjoy a relaxing and worry free holiday.

We are looking forward to meeting you and your family.

I can thoroughly recommend Signe and Graham! They have been fantastic from the outset, always great communicators, keeping in touch in the run up and during the sit. The house and garden were immaculate. Needless to say Luna was cared for and clearly enjoyed their company during their stay. They really understood the brief, were super easygoing and willing to help however they could. I wish them well on their onward travels and future house sits. Thank you so much!

It was such a relief to have Signe and Graham looking after our cats and house while we were away. From the photos and videos they sent us it was clear that the cats were very happy, well fed and very fond of Signe and Graham! We weren't stressed at all about leaving them for almost 3 weeks. We got regular updates on how they were doing and loads of videos of them playing. When we got home the house was absolutely spotless, with fresh bedding and towels on the bed.

This was the first time we used House Sitters UK and were so pleased we connected with such safe pairs of hands!

From Aussie House Sitters
Our first time with house sitters Exceeded our expectations From the first phone call to arriving home to a very happy dog ,spotless house and thriving garden. Was a great experience and would recommend Signe and Graham 100% and hope they can come back again Thank you
From Aussie House Sitters
Fantastic communication before, during and after the house sit. We were regularly updated with photos of Murphy throughout our trip, this meant we could relax and know that he was happy. Signe and Graham did a wonderful job throughout - we came home to a spotless house, all washing done, plants healthy, lawn mowed and a contented pup. We couldn’t ask for more! Highly recommend Signe and Graham - we will happily have them back in the future.
From Aussie House Sitters
Signe and Graham were absolutely fantastic house sitters. They cared for my home and my two-year-old groodle, Luca, for two weeks and went above and beyond. I received regular updates, photos and videos showing Luca happy, relaxed and thoroughly loved — it was clear he adored them. Communication was easy and warm from start to finish, and I genuinely felt completely comfortable having them in my home. I came back to a spotless house and a very content pup.

Signe & Graham were fantastic. Our first experience with Aussie House sitters and what a great one it was. Our fur baby was very well cared for, as was our home. Signe & Graham are highly recommended and we hope to see them again in the future.
From Aussie House Sitters
Signe and Graham are some the best housesitters we have experienced. Communication was excellent and upon our return the house was immaculately clean. Our dear little man, Kaito was well cared for and we were able to completely relax while overseas. A few little handman jobs arose while we were away and Signe and Graham handled them beautifully without a problem. I can highly recommend these guys and will definitely stay in touch for our next adventure away.
From Aussie House Sitters
Signe and Graham come highly recommended - we knew from our first conversation that they would take care of everything. We were sent regular updates of walks, beach swims and cuddles on the couch. Luna, Lucky and Peaches were smiling in every photo! We returned to an immaculate home greeted by calm and happy pets. Signe had watered my beloved plants indoor and out. We couldn’t be happier with the housesit. We would love Signe and Graham to come back again 🙌💕

Signe and Graham house sat for our family so we could enjoy a family holiday in Queensland. I can't rate them highly enough. They looked after our two poodles, Bobby and Millie, and our cat, Pussa, beautifully and shared regular updates. Millie is still a youngish puppy, quite needy (i.e., a velcro dog), and this was no issue for Signe and Graham. Signe brushed her hair daily and kept her looking good.

They left the house better than they found it, and we are extremely clean people, so we were impressed. Next time we go away, if Signe and Graham are available, they'll be my first choice to housesit.

From the first email reply to the last message, communication with Signe & Graham has been clear, timely and friendly. We had a lovely meet & greet in advance, and I felt very at ease having both Signe & Graham in my house and having them care for my 2 cats. The sit itself went well - I got photos and updates of the cats and on the house. Again, friendly and clear and just the right amount to stay connected. Thanks!

Thanks Signe & Graham for everything you did during your sit - it was a delight! If you are ever in Melbourne again I know the cats would love to have you come stay again! Marianne

Such an amazing couple that took great care of our cat and home. The house was cleaner than we left it, our house plants healthy and our little cat very happy! Would highly recommend Signe and Graham to everyone and would love to have them back any time!
From House Sitters UK
Thank you Signe and Graham for leaving the house in such a beautiful condition, and for looking after the animals so well. And also for the funny photos/videos of the cats! Highly recommended housesitters, it was a pleasure to have you and I hope you had a safe and pleasant arrival back in Australia.
From House Sitters UK
Signe and Graham were fantastic house sitters. They took great care of the dogs and the house was spotless when we got back. Lovely couple, very friendly and very glad to have met them both.
From House Sitters UK
We never give five stars for anything but when we came home after nearly three weeks away and the house was cleaner than when we left it and the animals were healthier than when we left then it's hard not to praise where praise is due. Signe and Graham were charming and simply wonderful housesitters. Anyone who has them to stay will be very lucky indeed.
From House Sitters UK
Signe and Graham were a total delight. So easy to communicate with. A very trustworthy, caring and empathetic duo. We left feeling very comfortable that Otis was in good hands. Returned to an immaculate house, and a happy dog. If they offer to sit for you, I’d emphatically say grab them! We hope they will revisit with us.

Signe & Graham were fantastic. Great communicators and very experienced. Thank you for taking such good care of Zewy and Comet! We really appreciate it!

How lucky we were to have Signe and Graham as our house sitters, we are forever grateful!! Very reliable, experienced, animal loving, easy to communicate with, loved not only by us but also our 2 cats from the moment we met. Our house looked cleaner on our return than before, cats and chickens very well looked after, indoor and outdoor plants looked great, and we truly felt as handing our keys over to our friends when leaving, and had the same feeling coming back home.

Signe & Graham looked after our family home and pets while we headed away camping for 5 nights. Communication was great and we came back to a perfect house just as we had left it and our Labrador Ruby was happy & taken care of perfectly. Thanks again, it was a pleasure to have you in our home!
From Aussie House Sitters
Oh wow. Signe and Graham were absolutely incredible. So wonderfully communicative and treated our home beautifully. They were really loving to our dogs who were sad to see their new friends leave at the end of the sit! From the initial contact to coming home to a super clean home, bedroom cleaned and re-made and all our mail tidily stacked, it was a great experience. Our pool was also looked after really well which was such a relief as the pump actually stopped working while we were away. ... MoreOh wow. Signe and Graham were absolutely incredible.

It was great they were onto it and we could talk through the problem to get it fixed. Would absolutely recommend this pair to anyone looking for a a great house sit. Thanks again Signe and Graham, you are missed!

Signe and Graham, were wonderful pet and house sitters. They looked after our small dog, Reggie, for 3 1/2 weeks. They were willing to come and spend the night with us before we left, to do a handover and meet our cherished dog. Both Signe and Graeme were wonderful with Reggie, understanding the needs of an older dog. The house was immaculate on our return. During our overseas holiday, they messaged regularly, sent photos, which allowed us to feel relaxed on our holiday. I would recommend them ...

Signe and Graham were excellent house/dog sitters. Charlie our dog looked well and relaxed when we returned. The house was left very clean and everything in order. It was as if no one had been in our house. The communication prior to our travel was prompt and they were very friendly and responsible which gave us complete confidence that both our dog and home would be looked after. Certainly recommend them.
From Aussie House Sitters
Highly recommend. Our pets and house were obviously well looked after and we are convinced the house was cleaner when we returned than when we left! Would not hesitate to use again if the opportunity arises. Thank you.
From Aussie House Sitters
This was our first time using a sitter. Signe and Graham were excellent looking after our house and dog Charley. House was cleaner than when we left and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone.
From Aussie House Sitters
Once again we had a wonderful experience with Signe and Graham Our our return our home was immaculate and our much loved cat was happy which is of equal importance! We would be delighted to have them house sit again and would not hesitate to recommend them for any house sitting jobs
From Aussie House Sitters
Signe and Graham were fantastic. And a lovely people as well. M.y house was cleaner than i left it! But most importantly my dog was well cared for and loved while i was away. I wouldnt hestitate to have them look after the house and dog again. 10/10.
From Aussie House Sitters
Signe And Graham were the most amazing house sitters. I cannot imagine anyone who could have looked after Rusty or my house any better. They kept me well informed with photos and information on Rusty, gave him lots of outings, including his regular morning walks on the beach and beyond, and left the house in exceptionally beautiful condition. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I will definitely check their availability anytime I need to go away.
From Aussie House Sitters
Signe and Graham were wonderful friendly house sitters. Communication was easy and they turned up on time. We were very happy with the extra good care of our pet dog (& chickens). They left the house sparkling ✨ clean, and even a thoughtful bottle of milk in the fridge for our return. We would certainly be happy to have them back anytime and highly recommend them to anyone.
From Aussie House Sitters
Signe and Graham were fantastic house-sitters. They were very gentle and caring with Lottie. The day after they left, she went into every room to see where they were. She looked back at me and I'm certain I saw disappointment on her face - although it's hard to tell with a Schnauzer. It was great to come home to a lovely clean house and I could relax after a long drive. Signe and Graham were also very flexible and responsive to communication. I highly recommend them and would be very happy to ... MoreSigne and Graham were fantastic house-sitters. They were very gentle and caring with Lottie.
