I used Aussie Housesitters once and it worked out really well. Our dog at the time was elderly and a bit arthritic and wouldn’t have coped well in a kennel, was better for him to have the comfort of his own home. Look for sitters with good reviews, and you can ask a potential house sitter for a video call before hand to see if you click.
I think if I was to do again I’d offer the house sitter a payment or go through a paid service, because I was so grateful that our dog was well looked after.
I didn’t actually realise Aussie Housesitters wasn’t necessarily a paid service, that’s interesting (though like I said in another comment reply, I genuinely don’t mind paying any amount as long as I’m sure the dog is being taken care of properly). I would much rather have someone come to our home and stay with him, and we also have cats but they’re much easier to sort care out for (they just want a full food bowl tbh). I’ll take another look through the site cheers for the suggestion
