  • I am a single woman retired from 33 years of marriage to a medical professional at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Mn. I traveled nationally and internationally with my former husband. I love to travel and would like to have a purpose while "on the road" to wonderful new experiences.
    I maintained 3 vacation homes (one at a time) in Maine while living in Mn. and Texas over a 23 year period. Cultural opportunities and the beautiful outdoors call me. I pay strict attention to details and would take excellent care of cats, dogs, etc. Having had up to four cats at one time, multiple animals will be joy to care for. I am completely trustworthy and will provide personal as well as work references from my current employer.
    On July 3rd, 2008, I returned from a housesitting job in Ireland. Pixie the cat was a joy. My five weeks there were so wonderful.
    A clean home is important to me, so no need to worry about your beautiful home. I will take care of it as if it were my own. I look forward to hearing from you. You won't be disappointed.
    I have recently completed house sitting positions in Sydney.
    Thank you very much, Margaret Brinkman

  • I am waiting to move into an apartment bought off the plan and have sold my house earlier than expected. I have many involvements around Melbourne all outside the home, but would prefer to live on my own. Your home would be mainly used for sleeping and general caretaking. It would be respected as I would my own.
    A longer arrangement would suit me better than a short period but anything before Christmas would be snapped up.
    I am a nurse, a counsellor and a marriage celebrant - clean living and totally honest.

  • Experienced sitters:
    Hi, we have now been house sitting for 18 months and we are truly enjoying the experiences this offers. We enjoy looking after all types of household pets including those without fur and also have experience with small farms.
    We are an energetic, enthusiastic and honest well meaning couple with family in Western Australia and Tasmania.
    We run a small IT Software and Services Company and our only requirement is that there is Telstra mobile phone coverage and internet access. We have a home in Maleny Queensland and like living in this special part of the world very much but since our children have grown up and moved on we are enjoying the opportunities house sitting offers to explore other areas of Australia.
    We love house sitting and do it so home owners can travel knowing that their homes and pets are safe and secure. We have police clearances if required but prefer to give names and telephone numbers of previous sits we have cared for.

  • We are a cheerful, mature and very responsible married couple - who would be the perfect candidates to mind your house, pets and gardens in your absence.
    My wife and I would love to look after your home, while you are away negotiating the care of your home for the longer term!
    Feel free to contact us via our email address : judderbar2000@gmail.com to check out our profile, excellent references, photos etc.
    We are currently sitting for 6 months in Rangewood, (a rural suburb of Townsville).
    If we sat for you we would have plenty of time to lavish on your home. This is our chosen way of life and we are not just looking for a 'holiday on the cheap.'
    If you choose us:
    1/ We will make every effort to meet you as early as possible before the sit.
    2/ Communicate with you regularly up until we came to sit.
    3/ Arrive in time, before the sit so that we get to know each other and any routines etc.
    4/ Keep in regular contact, if you wish, during your time away.
    5/ Look after your home and possessions with every care as if they were our own.
    6/ Come to an agreement in use of your utilities like power, gas etc, or for example using your phone for local calls and of course we'd be prepared to pay any extras.
    7/ For a longer term sit we would negotiate putting the utilities into our name.
    8/Maintain your garden, pot plants, lawn if/and as needed. We would, at all times, treat your home, furnishings, chattels and appliances with all care, keeping them maintained, clean and tidy, as if they were our own.
    9/ In all things and at all times respect your privacy. Not hold parties etc. (we are both non-smokers)
    10/ We will not plunder your larder or deep freeze while you are away.
    11/ Try and leave your property at least as good and if possible, even better than we found it!
    12/ We would of course be prepared to put an agreement to this effect in writing and sign it if you wish.
    I have background as a Professional Fire Officer specialized in Fire Safety in the NZ Fire Service and my wife served in the Philippine Police for 26 years.
    We are clean living, don't smoke or take drugs.
    I have personally owned, and had much experience looking after property, and am capable of carrying out any necessary maintenance needed in the home, gardens and also loving caring for your pets.
    After retiring from the NZ Fire Service I worked for a time as a Maintenance Supervisor for Multi-national Pricewaterhouse Coopers.
    I look forward to your early reply and feel free to contact me directly by email: madamjuds@gmail.com or phone 07 47887121.

  • Are you looking for a quiet, clean, reliable, non-smoker to look after your home and pets while you are away?
    I am a former aid worker (education project manager) with experience in East Timor, Rwanda, and Congo. I am now working on a book and am looking for a quiet location in which to write. I have recently been granted an Australian residence visa (including police clearances) as a "last remaining relative".
    I am the fortunate proprietor of my own home in the US (Hawaii) and understand the responsibilities of home-ownership; now I need to live closer to my family in Australia. I do not smoke or drink; I generally live a very quiet, reserved life. I am a clean, tidy, orderly and organized person. I love cats, and am also willing to take care of a small dog needing only limited exercise. I do not drive, and would prefer to live within easy walking distance of shops and basic services.
    I would also prefer a long term house-sit of nine months or more.
    The best way to contact me is by e-mail. I will be available by phone from early November onwards. Thank you!

Ages

  • Hello, my name is Anuschka and I want to do house-sitting.
    I grew up with five siblings (three older ones and two kid siblings) and so I know what it means to keep house. e.g. a house in order and to be well structured and organised. Also we learned to accept responsibility for each other and the things we do!
    My parents set great value upon discipline; otherwise we would descend into chaos.
    We had a cat, named Oggel, for whom I was responsible. Unfortunately we never had a dog, but I worked as a dog sitter and this way I imagine I had my own dog. Not for money, only for fun, because I love them. Well, all right, sometimes I got chocolate or liquorice, which I also love.
    2006 I left home to live in Hamburg in my own flat, strictly speaking in my first share flat with two other people.
    In Hamburg I did my apprenticeship as a management assistant in publishing and after finishing my apprenticeship I stay there in the distribution department until I leave Germany in October 2010, with the aim - Australia!
    I love to do sports, travelling, reading or hang up with friends. I´m a non-smoker!
    I think I would be a great house sitter, because I know what responsibility it will involve.
    Also I WISH to do this and if you really WANT to do, you will be better than if you HAVE to do this.
    If you have any further questions, please contact me!
    I would be glad to hear from you and maybe to become better known in a personal meeting.
    (Actually I'm in Germany, but after 10th October I will have an Australian phone).
    Kind regards, Anuschka

  • Experienced sitter.
    Hi. I'm looking to housesit house/ acreage / flat / boat / caravan etc.
    I'm a fit 66 year old retired business owner. I had my own business making and selling all types of chocolates. After a few years I got sick and tired of the government and all their paperwork. So with a friend I spent 5 years working my way around good ole Auz.
    I worked on farms, outback stations, and in factory's. Had the best time ever. Now I am an Author.
    Even though at the present moment I do not have any animals, I have had cats, dogs, a horse, birds, and believe it or not ants. I love being around them as they bring you peace and happiness.
    I do not smoke, or have wild parties. Sitting out under the stars at night I think is the best thing in the world to do.
    The house sitting job I have at the moment is on 5 acres with animals and ten large gardens.
    Please feel free to ring me any time 0417862410 and I will be only too happy to answer any questions that you might have. intothecrystal.com is my website for my for my book and resume. Have a great day, Betty Anderson

    Between my daughter and I, we own 4 cats and one manic puppy, so I'm very used to caring for animals.

    I used to work as a cleaner for the City of Monash, and Delconways Home Helpers, so I know how to keep a house clean.
    Hobbies: writing poetry, messing around on facebook and livejournal, writing in my paper journal, reading, doing yoga, going for walks. Happy to walk your dogs, play with your cats, feed birds, ferrets, and goldfish. Will try not to feed the goldfish to the cats.
    Not much of a tv watcher.
    I love travel, and see house sitting as a way of experiencing new environments without moving too far from home.

I have 3 children, 2 living near me here with 2 wonderful grandsons and I have another son living in Dubai. I moved from Sydney 2 years ago after working in Environmental Management at State Forests of NSW for 13 years. Prior to my leaving Sydney I finished a 3 year Adv Diploma in Counselling. I lived on the northern beaches and loved to sail on Pittwater for many years. I was a committee member of the Royal Motor Yacht Club for 4 years.
    I have come to Sydney on several occasions to house sit for the Cruise Captain of the yacht club. Written or verbal references can be easily obtained.
    I lived in outback NSW on large properties for 22 years and thus have had many different animals all of which I lovingly cared for.
    I am an honest, reliable, practical and very capable person with a good sense of humour.
    Though
    I am interested in Sydney in October 2010 and February 2011, after that I would be very interested in any housesitting anywhere in Aus, Europe, NZ etc

  • RETIRED, RESPONSIBLE, ANIMAL LOVING, PROFESSIONAL COUPLE WHO LOVE A CHANGE OF SCENERY. EXPERIENCED SITTERS

    We are fortunate to be an early retired couple with successful careers and home-ownership behind us.
    Ric is a former Journalist and Foreign Correspondent who ran newsrooms in various places and for the last few years worked as a lecturer part-time at QUT University in Brisbane. Gill was a senior Fashion Buyer for a large UK company, but became more interested in working with organisations that do some good in the community.

    We jumped off the treadmill relatively early, met 12-years ago in South America while we were doing voluntary work, and have been managing to balance our lives ever since with some less stressful paid work, voluntary work and lots of travel.
    We are fit, healthy, tidy, non-smoking, and reasonably handy around house and garden.  We feel equally comfortable in big cities and the bush and like to divide our time between the two.
    We genuinely like animals of all sorts - having grown up with dogs, cats, sheep and the odd budgie but our desire to keep travelling through our fifties and onwards means we can't keep our own pets.
    As travel and change are a big part of our lives, we are pretty flexible about times and places.  We have a 4WD with a slide-on camper that takes us just about anywhere around Australia.  We spent last year in the Grampians, Victorian Alps, Adelaide, Woodend - Victoria, Sunshine Coast and Brisbane.
    Having sold our home, we are trying a number of new locations around Australia before deciding where we would like to buy again.
    We are honest and reliable and will look after your home, garden and loved pets with genuine care and respect.
    We would be happy to provide references and any other information you require.  As we're often travelling out of phone signal, please Email us and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.

  • Hi. My name is Jodie and I am an experienced housesitter, seeking a house to look after while I am building a house of my own in Bacchus Marsh. I am a 33 year old professional female, with a reputation for taking the utmost care in my housesitting duties.
    I absolutely love the company of animals and gardens, and have experience caring for a variety of animals, from tiny cats through to Great Danes! I also have experience with animals who have special needs, including those requiring medication.
    Formerly a teacher, I am currently studying a PhD at the University of Melbourne (on a double scholarship), and also work as an academic/editor part-time. I mostly work from home, which would allow me to spend lots of time with your pets, as well as providing the extra security of having someone around during the day.
    My priority when housesitting, is to give you peace of mind while you are away, looking after your house, pets and garden as though they are my own. I am a houseproud, conscientious, and tidy non-smoker, and have been invited back to housesit on numerous occasions in response to my responsible approach and the caring relationship I have developed with the animals I have looked after. I'm more than happy to provide references from previous housesits, as well as a police check.
    I am available for long-term housesits anywhere within 90 minutes of Melbourne, especially in the inner or Western suburbs of Melbourne (or anywhere within reach of Bacchus Marsh or Carlton). I would love to hear from you if you would like to discuss things further. Feel free to drop me a line.

  • I have had extensive experience caring for others and doing full time volunteer work for The salvation Army and for Military Veterans. I own two homes of my own, one which I have rented so I know the value of a good carer / tenant.
    I own a dog which gets treated with intense TLC, much to my wife's chagrin at times. She is a very senior nurse with an intense job so we find time apart is beneficial for both of us. Naturally, she would visit and assist me during her breaks.
    I prefer warmer climes, but if you are lovely people (as I'm sure you are) I'd be delighted to help you out.
