Occupation:
Builder / Legal Secretary
Ages
65 & 59

  • Experienced sitters
    I am a legal secretary, for the past 20 years working for a Queen's Counsel in Christchurch. I am now working for a law firm in Brisbane. My husband, Peter, is a retired builder, who had been involved in the building industry for over 40 years running his own business.
    We spent a year in Australia having bought our fox terrier 11 year and our cat of 15 years over with us. While in Australia we had to put our cat down due to cancer. We returned to N.Z taking with us our foxie and a very neglected 10 year old Labrador we adopted while in Australia. In the 18 months we were in N.Z. we lost both our dogs to cancer. 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 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.

  • Hi! My name is Pene.. and am 49.. I have been a Home Owner since 1980..  that was a big beautiful home at Epping..  986sqr metres.. with a pool and large lawns to mow.. I moved to the Northern Beaches in 2000 because I love the water.. I also own two investment properties.
    I have had many, many pets over the years! 5 dogs and 3 cats.. ( at one time 3 dogs and cats all at the same time ) 3 Cockatiels, a Princess Parrot, and a couple of fish too.. and just love the company of all animals ..  although unfortunately, mine have all passed away now ..   ( not getting anymore as it is too heartbreaking )
  • I do know what it is like to have to go away, and leave them, and have someone come in to feed them,  and walk them for you..   or to board    ( very expensive! ) and traumatic for them.
  • I also have had "house sitters" myself over the years..   and know that you have to like and trust the person/people you are leaving your home and pets with!   I have had over 14 house/pet sitting jobs since joining the site..  and 4 of these are now regular's, so that is really nice!
  • I live at Bayview..    and am willing to go from Palm Beach all the way down to Manly..  I have references from all of my previous House Sits.
  • I am available for an Interview to discuss any needs that you might have regarding what is required of me to "house sit" your home and look after your babies..    I am neat and tidy, and would treat your home just like mine..  with respect.  Look forward to taking care of your home while you are away on holidays..  or overseas on business.     Kind regards Pene.

  • Hello my name is Pauline and thanks for checking out my profile.
    I am 25 from Perth, I am very mature for my age, I was brought up with traditional values and have and a lot of respect for other people's property. I am a clean freak, maintaining a beautiful house is something that comes naturally to me. I am definitely a homebody, I am quiet and very rarely go out. Which Is why I may turn down some house-sits, as location and
    security is a huge issue for me. I am looking for places around Perth but would really like to
    experience living in different cities like Sydney & Melbourne. I own and operate a few online businesses, and help manage our family business Hitech Marine. I am very happy to provide any documents about my Work, Police clearance and references.
    Now the most important part. Pets! - I am definitely a Cat Lady =) In my family home we have 5 beautiful cats and I adore them. These include 2 Alpha Males who always team up and fight with neighbourhood cats. A very shy Persian dwarf cat, A teenage male who is an extremely fluffy exhibitionist, and a flirty girl. I have experienced a total of 7 kittens being born in our house and I have watched them all grow up into adults and have really experienced their different temperaments and how they are all unique. I have had 13 in total over the years, My beloved Burmese Mama Puss died recently but lived to 21 years. And unfortunately one has cancer at the moment and has been going through Chemotherapy. So as you can imagine I am extremely confident in looking after cats, I can handle them at their worst and their best, and everything in between! =)
    I completely understand the requirements you may have, and prefer it to be that way as I understand how daunting it may be to leave your home/babies in the hands of a complete stranger. I feel confident that you would only need to speak to me once to keep your mind at ease, however I am honest and If I don't feel confident that I meet you requirements, I won't
    pursue the housesit. I want things to work and I am not looking for a free ride but rather
    genuinely interested in the idea of both parties benefiting from me house-sitting your house.
    Plus I adore the company of cats =)
    Thanks for taking the time to read all of that, I know it's a lot, but I like to be thorough. If you are still reading and something has clicked, please feel free to contact me anytime my email
    is below. Have a great day and Take Care
    Kind Regards Pauline
