Marion and Cooper

31, Food blogger / vineyard worker / baking student

28, Vineyard worker / conservation student

We are currently in Australia but we are moving to Norwich in July (flights booked) where Cooper will be studying wildlife conservation. We are only accepting housesits in Norfolk, July onwards. (From October to Christmas, Marion will be studying in Paris so it will only be Cooper available during those dates)

My name is Marion, I am 31, from France but I have been living in Australia for the past 12 years. I have previously volunteered in a farm animal rescue (pigs, goats, baby goats, sheep, dogs, chicken). I love all kind of animals and always happy to take care of them. Fitness and cooking are my mains passions - I love spending time in the gym, or in the kitchen creating and filming/editing recipes, watching a movie or browsing through vintage/antique shops and farmers markets. I will be working from home in England (social media) and will be studying baking in Paris from October until late December.

Cooper is 28, from Manchester. He is a big animal lover too. He has experience in construction and worked as a landscaper. He is a big music enthusiast and enjoys browsing at record stores, watching football games as well as the UFC and loves going for a run! He would like to become a wildlife rescuer/working in wildlife conservation one day and will be studying access to higher education (conservation) at Easton College from September. He knows how to drive tractors and enjoys every aspects of a farm life.

Cooper and I have been living/working/travelling together for 6 years.
We have been working on fruit/vegetable farms and mostly vineyards and wineries.
We also did 3 months of volunteering with Blaze Aid in Australia where we were building fences for farmers who were affected by the bushfires of 2019-20.

We house/pet sitted multiple times and have experience fostering.
We fostered a big dog (bull arab x great dane x Staffy) with the organization Paws and Recover while we were in Sydney and also fostered a cat in Tasmania.
We have experience with many breeds of dogs, sheep, horses chickens, cats and alpacas. We both grew up with dogs and Marion used to have cats.

We will take care of your fur babies like they were ours and make sure that they are always happy! We know what it can be like to miss them so we are happy to provide daily updates/pictures while you are away.

Marion and Cooper were absolutely fabulous dog sitters. They looked after our border collies, Maggie and Murphie, for 3 1/2 weeks, kept in touch with photos and messages, and left a spotless house and two very happy dogs. They walked the dogs far and wide, but also played with and loved the dogs, and it really felt that we hadn't been away. In fact, a few days later at the coffee shop, Murphie raced up to a guy who looked like Cooper, and was sad that it wasnt him!!! Can't recommend highly ... MORE

Marion was a great sitter, communicator was excellent, with updates while we were away.. She was very easy going and we felt very confident leaving our house and pets with her.
 
ALICE (Angaston SA, Apr 2023 - 1 week 1 day) From Aussie House Sitters
We felt totally at ease while on holiday knowing that our puppy Tahli was in the care of Marion and Cooper. They were great communicators, sent photos of Tahli at the dog park, and we returned to a clean house and happy puppy. Thanks Marion and Cooper!
 
BESS (Blackburn VIC, Dec 2022 - 1 week) From Aussie House Sitters
Marion and Cooper were amazing when taking care of our home and of course of our big dog Buster! He absolutely adores them and was much calmer than usual when we returned. They are incredible with animals and were very respectful of the home. Both are responsible, smart and caring and we are so grateful that they were available to house sit.
 
LAUREN (Balwyn North VIC, Oct 2022 - 1 week 2 days) From Aussie House Sitters
I knew Marion and Cooper were a great find from the moment they stepped in the house. They were both at ease with my slightly anxious dog, and were easily up to the task of monitoring her injured leg and and medication! Scout was instantly calm and comfortable in their presence. When I returned home, the house was clean and tidy and just how I left it, which is comforting. They sent me a few update messages while I was away to let me know everything was going fine, but from the moment I ... MORE
 
RYAN (Northgate SA, Sep 2022 - 1 week 4 days) From Aussie House Sitters
Marion and Cooper were most pleasant housesitters who looked after our property, dog and cat for a bit over a month while we were overseas. They were easy to communicate with, and were keen to learn about the property and our pets. We're very happy with the care and attention they provided for our dog Gina and our cat Obi. Marion and Cooper sent us regular updates including photos with Gina and Obi - both looked very happy, loved and well fed. On our return the house was clean and everything ... MORE
 
NELLY (WILLIAMSTOWN SA, Aug 2022 - 1 month 1 week) From Aussie House Sitters
Couldn't recommend Marion & Cooper enough! They looked after our house and American Staffy, Winnie, for 2 months and it was a perfect first experience at house sitting. They are very respectful and trustworthy and left the house and Winnie soo clean! They sent updates with photos and Winnie was clearly very happy and comfortable with them. We had a stress free time away knowing our Winnie was well looked after. We would have them back again anytime!
 
BIANCA (Blakeview SA, Jun 2022 - 2 months) From Aussie House Sitters
Fantastic sitters! Our house was cared for lovingly and was so tidy and clean on our return! We received regular updates about the pets and both pets were settled and comfortable while we were away. Ellie even got a new toy which she is loving! Thanks so much guys! Will be sure to contact you if we need a sitter again!
 
OLIVIA (Willaston SA, May 2022 - 4 weeks) From Aussie House Sitters
Marion and Cooper were absolutely fantastic. Friendly, honest, caring and they kept us in loop. They went above and beyond looking after our pets and even did a bit of maintenance on a faulty feeder. I'd have Marion and Cooper back to look after our place anytime.

Marion and Cooper were fantastic, My dog loves them, my house was spotless when i returned, and they have even checked in with me since the sit finished to see if they can visit my dog again. Cant recommend them highly enough. Looking forward to my next holiday so i can book them again.

ALEX (Scarborough WA, Jul 2021 - 1 week 4 days) From Aussie House Sitters
Marion & Cooper Recently sat out semi-rural hills home. They are a lovely couple who went above and beyond to care for our elderly dog, as well as looking after the horses, a puppy, cat & chickens. The house was clean & tidy & animals happy. I would happily recommend them.
 
JUSTINE (Wungong WA, Jul 2021 - 2 days) From Aussie House Sitters
Marion and Cooper were a lovely couple who looked after our puppy and ageing cat. They left the house very clean and tidy. They washed the sheets and towels and put them in the dryer. Marion sent us regular updates and photos of our pets. Marion and Cooper were very friendly and easy to communicate arrangements with. You would be very lucky to have them look after your home. I would love to have them back again.
 
ROBYN (Athelstone SA, Jul 2021 - 1 week) From Aussie House Sitters
Marion and Cooper were wonderful! Marion was very easy and quick to communicate with. They were super attentive to our cat Abby, messaging to confirm her litter tray habits and changing her feeding as required - we are so grateful to the care they gave her. The house was immaculate when we got home and there was a very contented cat. Thank you both so much and we would love to have you back anytime.
 
CAMILLA (Eaglehawk Neck TAS, Jun 2021 - 4 days) From Aussie House Sitters
Marion & Cooper were a great couple who came to stay to look after the house and cat sit 2 cats and 1 kitten. They were easy to communicate with, responding in a timely fashion and provided a daily update on the cats, which was greatly appreciated. The house was clean and tidy when we returned and the cats seemed relaxed. Would definitely recommend Marion & Cooper as house and pet sitters.
 
KAREN (Berriedale TAS, Jun 2021 - 4 days) From Aussie House Sitters
We had Marion and Cooper look after our two large dogs and our house over the Christmas period. They were very flexible and accommodating in changing dates to match our needs over the period. Our house was in a clean state, they kept our large yard in good order, and they even washed their linen and towels on departure. One of our two dogs has some medication requirements due to anxiety. Marion and Cooper had no issues administrating the drugs and were great with walking our dogs, and kept ... MORE
