Occupation:
Retired Office Manager/Executive /
Now Volunteer - experienced Housesitter.
Ages
55
-
Are you planning a
holiday?
Would you like your home cared for responsibly by an experienced
Home Manager?
I am a mature woman, experienced house
sitter, and just completed housesitting roles in Springwood and Manly
areas in Brisbane.
I am a retired Office Manager/ Executive
having worked all my adult life in this profession and in many
industries, at senior management level. I have needed to be very organised
and methodical in my approach to my work and this has carried over into my
home life. You can be sure that your home will
be managed accordingly, well-maintained and safe. I am very conscious of
security issues as I have been in my home and will treat your home in the
same manner. I have also served as a 'home organiser' for friends, family,
etc as my skills have become known.
I operate as a volunteer in hospitals and aged
care facilities and am able to do this work in any area. I am a holder of
a "Blue Card" having had all the thorough police checks and have excellent
references. I am an animal
lover having grown up with dogs and cats, at different stages in my life,
as well as having my own, both dog and cat, in my adult life. Both have
now, sadly, passed away and I do miss them. My dog was an Australian
terrier, named Rascal, who loved to chase balls and sit on the deck to
welcome me home. My cat's name was Igor, named after pianist Igor
Stravinsky. Igor was a dear pet who loved to survey his kingdom from the
vantage point of his servant’s lap (i.e. me) while I was employed in the
job of stroking his body. Both were dearly loved and are sadly missed.
I am a non-smoker, have no dependent children, my own vehicle and am able
to come to meet with you for discussion of your housesitting situation. I
enjoy pottering around the garden so garden maintenance is a pleasure for
me and I will be a presence in your home during your absence.
I am available for short or
long terms house-sitting situations.
I am available Now until 21 August 08.
I can be contacted on phone # 0422 396 033.

Occupation:
Retired
Senior RAAF Officer
Ages: 59.
-
I'm a retired RAAF Officer with complete freedom in
relation to time. However, I am also a member of The Salvation Army who
does considerable volunteer work, primarily in the USA. Notable
achievements include organising the warehouse for the Pentagon Disaster
post 9 /11 (150 000 sq ft warehouse full of brand new donated items). I
have also organised four fundraising campaigns, two in Arlington Va,
and two in Lawton, Ok., and administered a Homeless Shelter in Lawton.
When doing my volunteer work, I regard myself as an unpaid employee, not
a volunteer.
I own a home in Mandurah which I have let at 20 % beneath market value
because of the financial circumstances of my tenants. I am buying
another home in Canberra which I have allowed family members to live in
rent free. I am a great believer in having a social conscience. This is
not because of some in-built desire to ingratiate myself. It's primarily
in recognition that I have received such wonderful gifts throughout my
life.
To whom much is given, much is
expected.
I have had experience in home sitting (not
house sitting...its your home not your house!).
I love animals. Sadly, because of some military caused disabilities I
have some minor limitations in performing physical labour. I would like
to have access to broadband Internet (my cost)... telephone is not a
problem if broadband is available as I have a VOIP calling card. A car
would be handy (although I actually prefer public transport).
Interested in me...why not email me below
and we can have a chat. Who knows we might just fit! As always, any
blessings.

Occupation:
Retired Headteacher & Retired Health Service Technician.
Ages: 68 & 69.
- We are an independent retired
professional couple who would very much like to undertake a period of
housesitting in either Australia or New Zealand. During the past few
years we have spent 2 very enjoyable holidays in each of these countries
and wish to return for a longer visit to either country as residents for
a longer period rather than as tourists.
Both of us are non smokers and in very good health. We are very active
by playing golf and bowls and by walking, swimming and gardening.
As homeowners ourselves we appreciate the concerns any one will have in
ensuring that their house is well cared for and we would treat the
property with the same care and consideration as we do our own.
References can be provided regarding our suitability including for one
us a current police check.
We should be very happy to discuss with you your needs and our mutual
expectations as well as providing you with any other information you
might require. Thank you.

Ages 60
- I am a semi retired female who enjoys
travel and new experiences, and a non smoker, non drinker. I have
previously worked as a nanny with sole care and responsibility for
maintaining their precious household, children and animals, while the
parents were overseas for several weeks at a time so consequently I have a
nationwide police clearance. I own my own house on the Gold Coast,
and I have a wonderful family and grandchildren, but I do need to have a
break now and then. I have had a sitter mind my place for three months
when I visited my son in China, and I had the thought "I should be doing
this".
I have always had my own little dog, but he died and I have not got
another one yet, so I have total empathy for how you feel leaving you
little animals, with someone who cares.. I feel at this time of my life I
have a great opportunity to explore.. I am happy to do my yoga and
meditation, I paint and read a lot and luxuriate in that as when I am home
I am usually very busy and unwind time is a rarity, so your animals would
have fairly constant company, and I would love to look after your little
friends, and would respect your home as my own. I am available now for
short or longer term stays.
I will be
sitting at Hervey Bay through May/June 25th 08
