About this sitter

Hello, we are Bruno (73) and Gail (68) husband and wife. To date we have completed 100+ pet/house sits. Bruno sold his café business a few years ago now and I had been working in administration for Community Nursing in Australia. We are financially secure, honest, clean living, non smoking very proud home owners and would respect and treat your home as if it was our own. We have two adult daughters and three beautiful grandchildren all living on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. Not wanting to miss out on seeing them grow up we also take time out from house sitting in order to spend time with them. Bruno was born in Italy, and brought up in France. He has lived in Australia for many years now and speaks fluent French, Italian & English. I was born in Australia.
We both hold Australian and Italian passports giving us the freedom of movement in Europe.

Why they want to house sit

With housesitting we have found that we are thoroughly enjoying the company of pets and their different personalities. We consider it to be a great privilege as we are being trusted with your lovely home and beloved pets. You can be sure that we will never take this for granted. We appreciate they are precious family members and will treat them as our own providing them with love, comfort, attention and exercise. Housesitting enables us to combine our love for animals and pets with our passion for travel. With house and pet sitting we are interested in living in a community and not just being a drive through tourist.

Their experience

To date we have done 105 sits and have been invited back by homeowners to do further sits. We have our own website fraussies.com where all of our references can be viewed as we are members of several housesitting sites. Here, you can also learn a bit more about us.

What can they bring to the assignment

We both come from customer service backgrounds and we feel that this gives us the ability to have a caring, nurturing attitude and an eye for detail. We are able to take decisions and deal with difficulties responsibly when they arise leaving you to be away and have peace of mind. We have had experience in repair and maintenance of properties with also having fully renovated another property that we own. (Apart from making a mean coffee Bruno is very handy)
With house/pet sitting we understand that the care, security and safety of your pets and home are of the utmost importance and we believe in giving 110%. We are also extremely aware and respectful of your privacy within your home.
