Nurse

Ages

  • I am a single Australian female working as a nurse and have lived in Darwin for 8 months. My part time study will be completed in 2012 and I plan to stay in Darwin during this period of time. I am hard working and reliable with references.
    I have lived in share accommodation for a number of years and have found it difficult to keep pets and a garden in rental properties. House-sitting is a way for me to spend time with (other people's) plants and pets whilst I am not in a position to keep my own. I particularly enjoy the company of birds however, dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents and other animal friends are lovingly welcomed.
    Whilst caring for your home and pets, I will be using my own computer, car, internet and mobile phone. I do shift-work and my irregular hours directly translates to a timetable that thieves will be unable to predict - a valuable source of security. My study keeps me well-occupied with reading and writing assignments. When I get the chance, I like to go camping/swimming/hiking or see (foreign) films, art exhibitions, and theatre.
    I am a non-smoker.
    I prefer to meet yourself and the house/pets to discuss mutual expectations before accepting a 'sit'.

  • 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

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 Journalist/Lecturer, Retired Fashion Buyer - EXPERIENCED SITTERS
Ages
54 & 53
  • 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.

  • 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.

Casual High School teacher
Ages

  • I am house sitting from 1st September 2010 thru to 3rd November in Milner.
    I have secured a job out of Palmerston but am not bothered if there is a little travel involved. I am looking at staying in Darwin for at least 6 months.
    Hi I am a responsible female that has lived alone for a number of years. I make friends easily and obtain employment as a casual teacher quite readily. I have volunteered in the community for years, for a variety of causes, most recently the CFA for the past 4 years.
    I love pets and gardens, having maintained my own large garden for the past 8 years. I have recently sold my property in Wandin, Victoria and am not in a hurry to purchase my next home.
    I have holidayed in Darwin several times and would like to spend a little more time up north.
    I am a pedantic house-cleaner and would be honoured to mind your home.

Occupation:
management assistant in publishing, WORK & TRAVEL

Ages
24
  • 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

Occupation:
Nurse

Ages
31
  • I am a single Australian female working as a nurse and have lived in Darwin for 8 months. My part time study will be completed in 2012 and I plan to stay in Darwin during this period of time. I am hard working and reliable with references.
    I have lived in share accommodation for a number of years and have found it difficult to keep pets and a garden in rental properties. House-sitting is a way for me to spend time with (other people's) plants and pets whilst I am not in a position to keep my own. I particularly enjoy the company of birds however, dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents and other animal friends are lovingly welcomed.
    Whilst caring for your home and pets, I will be using my own computer, car, internet and mobile phone. I do shift-work and my irregular hours directly translates to a timetable that thieves will be unable to predict - a valuable source of security. My study keeps me well-occupied with reading and writing assignments. When I get the chance, I like to go camping/swimming/hiking or see (foreign) films, art exhibitions, and theatre.
    I am a non-smoker.
    I prefer to meet yourself and the house/pets to discuss mutual expectations before accepting a 'sit'.

Occupation:
Yoga teacher; writer; house cleaner
Ages
46
  • I am a writer and yoga teacher living in Melbourne. I've kept my own home for 25 years, raising two children on my own. I am tidy, and used to work as a house cleaner, so I know how to keep a place clean in an environmentally friendly manner. My children are old enough to live their own lives now, so I'd be house sitting on my own, and loving it, as Maxwell Smart would say.
    I love animals and will happily look after fish, birds, dogs and cats. Walking dogs is no problem. Nor am I fussed if the animal sleeps on the bed with me.
    I am quiet, and like these times away from home to read, write, take walks, and generally just be. I'm not a wild party sorta girl. More a meditation and 'om' sorta girl. Deva Premal rather than AC/DC.
    I'm vegetarian, a non-smoker and non-drinker. My addictions are books, and chocolate.
    I don't mind a bit of gentle weeding in good weather, but draw the line at remodelling your garden or building a fence.
    I empty letterboxes daily, don't make phone calls (I would have my mobile phone with me for that), and my own laptop.
    Delconways Home Helpers and the City of Monash Home Help service can both attest to my honesty and integrity.

  • My husband and I are travelling around Australia in our caravan and house sit along the way.  We are caring, mature, responsible and non-smoking house sitters who have experience looking after homes, gardens and pets for a range of properties in different states. We will take good care of your home, garden and pets, as you would expect us to, in your absence.

    We are already booked for house sitting in Melbourne from Dec through to end March 2010.

Occupation:
Retired Journalist/Lecturer, Retired Fashion Buyer - EXPERIENCED SITTERS
Ages
54 & 53
  • 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.
