• 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 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.

• Greetings and Thanks for Reading my Advertisement!
• I am a 42 yo single male with no dependents looking for house-sitting positions throughout S/E QLD. I originally come from NZ though left there in 2004.
  My usual work is in church ministry, with my last role as a youth pastor for 4 1/2 years. Though for the past two years I have been working full-time on a comprehensive Christian book, which I am hoping to publish in the near future. I am still about 1 year away from finishing.
  I pride myself as a clean, tidy and considerate, non-smoker and non-drinker, of sound mind, good habits and in good health.
  I have grown up my whole life with animals and love their company. I am good in the garden and have a sound knowledge of a gardens requirements.
  If you chose me to house sit, I pledge the following:
  *I would not invite anyone around to your house.
  *I would take great care of your pets, promising to pamper them and exercise them daily, according to your specific needs.
  *I promise to treat your home with the utmost care, keeping it clean and tidy at all times.
  *I am happy to do domestic duties which you require such as watering plants, mowing the lawns, gardening maintenance, collecting mail, vacuuming, dusting and cleaning, plus other responsibilities as per your requirements.
  *I am happy to issue a deposit of $1000 for your security and peace of mind.
  Since I work from home on my laptop and have my research materials with me, I can ensure all-day company for your animals and provide round the clock security for your home.
  I am currently in Brisbane and my work allows me flexibility to work practically anywhere. Thus, I am fine with both a rural or city setting :)
  I would prefer sits of at least 3 weeks plus as it can be disorientating to move too often.
• I am an experienced house-sitter and have excellent references as well.
  Please email me or call my mobile and I will promptly get back to you.
  Thanks very much and I look forward to hearing from you! Your's sincerely, Jeremy.

• Our own house sitters (five times) convinced us to do some sitting too, and when we tried it last year (Mt Tamborine + Gold Coast), we loved it. We like escaping Warwick's frosts.
  We are very fit (jog each day), and are garden loving people who built their own beautiful home, and, through firm family upbringings, have learnt to appreciate what we and other people own.
  We have three children - a daughter (nurse-Gold Coast), a daughter (lecturer - Melbourne), and a son (Hydro-survey consultant, NZ at the moment, then USA).
  We were both teachers at The Scots PGC College in Warwick, (Mavis 19 & John 33yrs). Mavis was a Home Economics/Hospitality teacher, now plays Bridge, and dotes on the three G'kids, making them wall hangings, clothes, etc.
  John was a Man Arts/ Art/Graphics teacher, ex-AFL player, ex-golfer, and now coaches bowls as well as accrediting coaches, and he is a volunteer at Blue Care.
  We are both non-smokers, and are almost teetotallers.
  The two people we sat for last year would be very willing to provide a reference if required.

• 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.

Our Labrador had a wonderful year with us going to work every day with Peter and Tezza our foxie and lots of walks in the pine forest.
  We returned to Australia in June 2010 to house sit and also to look after a couples dog while they were away for 5 months.
  We returned back to New Zealand January of this year and because of the earthquakes in Christchurch have only just returned in September.
  We are at present house sitting in Brisbane and available again 17th July 2012.
  Due to not now having pets of our own, we are very interested in minding a house with pets as we are avid pet lovers.
  We hope that this is of interest to future house sitting positions.
  We have references available. Thanking you

• I have retired from owning my own business 2 years ago. Hubby isn't interested in travelling so this is a way for me the get around and see more than my own backyard.
  I have a maltese shitzu dog so I am familiar with the upkeep of similar breeds. Years ago I did keep birds so would not be worried to take on the care of caged birds.
  I do like gardening and would willingly look after your garden and have it looking lovely for when you arrive home. My home is very neat and orderly and you can expect that I will look after your home in the same manner.
  Ideally I am looking for shorter term house sits.

• Originally from Sydney, where apprentice Fitter+Turner with British Leyland and later Jackarooed in Riverina. My first caretake a Bathurst farm before many years in WA working. Live-in Caretaker for Parry Wines from 86 until 92. Where I'd built a small m/c business and worked it until I opted (20 yrs down-the-track) for many Caretaking & House-Sitting positions in and around Perth Hills 97-01.
  Drove to Qld SSC 2002, bought a house & owned a Hire Equipment business for 8 yrs.
  I've decided to sell-up & widen my horizons after death of favoured pet, being a keen fisherman yet in Qld SSC with the possibility of venturing into NSW Northern Rivers or Gold Coast depending on what I find.
  However currently in my home [in flood-proof hinterland] and looking to move-out by the end of month. Owned this home for 10 yrs and have a wish to live near the coast again. Currently; No Pets of my own.
  But I have lots of Equipment: pumps, pressure cleaners, mulchers, + much more.
  Citizens around the town where I live are used to seeing me brush cutting weeds & tall grasses around Govt buildings and verges where council won't. All part of a 'neat & tidy' philosophy I live by. I figure I'll do it because nobody else will....

• Greetings and Thanks for Reading my Advertisement!
• I am a 42 yo single male with no dependents looking for house-sitting positions throughout S/E QLD. I originally come from NZ though left there in 2004.
  My usual work is in church ministry, with my last role as a youth pastor for 4 1/2 years. Though for the past two years I have been working full-time on a comprehensive Christian book, which I am hoping to publish in the near future. I am still about 1 year away from finishing.
  I pride myself as a clean, tidy and considerate, non-smoker and non-drinker, of sound mind, good habits and in good health.
  I have grown up my whole life with animals and love their company. I am good in the garden and have a sound knowledge of a gardens requirements.
  If you chose me to house sit, I pledge the following:
  *I would not invite anyone around to your house.
  *I would take great care of your pets, promising to pamper them and exercise them daily, according to your specific needs.
  *I promise to treat your home with the utmost care, keeping it clean and tidy at all times.
  *I am happy to do domestic duties which you require such as watering plants, mowing the lawns, gardening maintenance, collecting mail, vacuuming, dusting and cleaning, plus other responsibilities as per your requirements.
  *I am happy to issue a deposit of $1000 for your security and peace of mind.
  Since I work from home on my laptop and have my research materials with me, I can ensure all-day company for your animals and provide round the clock security for your home.
  I am currently in Brisbane and my work allows me flexibility to work practically anywhere. Thus, I am fine with both a rural or city setting :)
  I would prefer sits of at least 3 weeks plus as it can be disorientating to move too often.
• I am an experienced house-sitter and have excellent references as well.
  Please email me or call my mobile and I will promptly get back to you.
  Thanks very much and I look forward to hearing from you! Your's sincerely, Jeremy.

  G'day, My name is Suzanne but I prefer to be called, Sue. I am wanting to save for my first home, and would like to live on the Sunshine Coast, that is why I have chosen this area to housesit. I am mature (don't go out partying) I'm a non smoker, I am neat and tidy, and will respect your house and contents, and look after your pets as if they were my own.
  My work involves being in other peoples houses, cleaning, and providing other personal services. As such, I have a current police check, and two references.
  I am trustworthy, honest, and reliable. I understand, that people need to have their house kept the way they left it... ie, things put back how they are found, and keeping things clean, and tidy.
  I am an active person, and love to be outdoors, so walking dogs will be an enjoyable activity for me, and help me to keep fit. I also enjoy the company of puddy cats, and will be happy to do garden maintenance, and mowing lawns.
  I am hoping to get a long term sit. (six months, or longer) However, I will take shorter ones as well. I am available to start immediately.
  Looking forward to being an excellent house sitter for someone soon.
