Experienced sitters.
We are a happily married couple of 38 years and enjoy travelling Australia
in our caravan. We have been house-sitting for the past 7 years and
love the lifestyle this provides, allowing us to stay in and experience
different areas.
We have always had pets including dogs, cats, fish, chooks and budgies
when we lived in our own home. As a result of living in a caravan, we are
very conscious of the need to conserve both water and electricity usage.
We are committed Christians, are extremely honest, reliable and
trustworthy and are both non-smokers and non-drinkers. We have had house
caring experience involving short and longer stays and understand how
important it is to have totally honest, reliable people living in and
taking care of your home. We have current police clearances and are very
happy to provide excellent references when requested.

Experienced sitters / Caretakers - non smokers
Currently booked 25/05/2013 to 12/08/2013.
Greg is Australian and Dee is a Pommy Australian. We are now grey
nomads, and love the rural life...not comfortable in big cities. We are
good with animals but have none of our own these days because of our
lifestyle. Greg can do almost anything from mending cars, to woodwork, to
making sure your property is fire safe. We've worked as caretakers on a
remote heritage station (farm), and last year we house sat a villa in
Umbria, Italy, ....three dogs, a pool and an olive plantation. As we both
hold Gun Licences from South Australia a Police Check would be an overkill
as the checking done for a Gun Licence is more intensive than a general
police check!
We travel a lot, and plan to be in New South Wales and Queensland this
year. We are fit and healthy, like walking and cycling, read a lot and
Greg is learning the banjo, while Dee plays the uke.
We do prefer to be in more rural areas, and the outback. We tow a caravan
so we would be able to use that, or we would need a place to keep it.

whatever your house-sit needs. We would be honoured to have you choose us.

Occupation:
Retired RAAF officer, full time
volunteer.
Ages
61
- I am experienced house
sitter who is extremely conscious of the need not to let down home
owners. My greatest disappointment is having to refuse owners who have had
arrangements in place only to have a sitter cancel at the last minute. If
I commit to you then you can plan your absence in absolute peace.
I have an impeccable character being a Justice of the Peace, a retired
RAAF officer and a member of The Salvation Army. I own three homes in
Atlanta Georgia which I have rented out so am totally empathetic to the
need of home owners.
I have a gorgeous Fox Terrier who owns our home with my wife and I. My
wife has a job here in Canberra so does not accompany me on Full Time
assignments; however, she will join me during my assignment.
I would prefer the availability of a vehicle although in major cities I
prefer the use of public transport.
I am in great demand...obviously I must be doing something correct.
Therefore, its advisable to get in quickly. Overseas assignments are
considered.
