House sitting Darwin

Darwin is the capital city of the Northern Territory, Australia.
Twice the size of Texas, there is much more to do and see than Ayers Rock, Desert and Kakadu.
. . . But you'll never, never know . . .
. . . if you never, never go.

Whilst house sitting in Darwin you should take a drive around the city and visit the interesting Darwin Aviation Heritage Centre.
House sitting in Darwin provides a great place to base yourself before moving on to see sights such as Kakadu National Park and Katherine Gorge.

• 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.

  I am 82, and of sober habits, a non-smoker.
  I have a car and am able bodied.
  For some clients I did extra jobs for which I was paid, like painting their boundary fence. Whilst they were abroad, I paid their household bills, phone, electricity, insurance, etc, and gave them the receipts and was reimbursed.
  I fed animals and birds, and only lost one chook that died - No, I didn't cook and eat it !! They even wanted me to do a repeat sit for them next holidays.
  Recent sit was for 6 months on a farm in WA looking after horses and chooks (and the odd kangaroo)

• I realise it is very difficult to select someone to look after your home and beloved pets. I am a retired single lady living in Noosaville, Queensland. 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.

• I have been sitting in the Palmerston, NT area for the last 3 yrs (since my only grand-child was born) and have references from those sits.
  My experience covers most domestic animals - up to 19 pets at one home. I have cared for the irrigation watering and mowing with the ride-on on acreage and these lovely home-owners have had me back a number of times. They have always allowed me use their car while they've been away which I greatly appreciated.
  I am part owner of a Commercial Cleaning business in Alice Springs, having been involved in the cleaning industry for over 30 years.
  House-sitting gives me some "carer respite" time, as my sister and I share the care of our dear aged mum. So its good to have the opportunity to re-charge the batteries.
  I will care for your home and pets as though they were my own.
  If you are going on a vacation, and whether you use me for your house-sits or not, I hope you create some wonderful memories while away.
  Please feel free to contact me any time if you have any questions.
