  • Experienced House-sitter and pet-minder with references and a police clearance.
    Hello, I'm moving to Sydney to be with Martin, my partner. We are looking to housesit, whilst we start our new life together and I re-establish my career. Jarvia is my 13yo intelligent, artistic, musically inclined and sporty daughter. She is delightful and I am blessed to have her in my life. We all adore animals and have loved an assortment of pets. Martin loves dogs and Jarvia has an affinity with cats.
    I've house-sat before and cared for Pritania, an aging English bulldog that required daily medication. When friends have moved, I adopted their cats,  Cougar for 5 years and Snoepie (meaning darling in Dutch) for 1 year.
    We'll both respectfully maintain your home as we would our own, because we are houseproud and consider it an honour to care for your home, pets and plants. Martin can also apply his building skills to fix things around the house, if required. Furthermore, we are non-smoking, health conscious, considerate and responsible.
    We are available for any length of stay.

Occupation: Director turned temp student, housewife & reflexologist
Ages
48, 46
  • Hi! We are Karl & Sue, planning to come to Oz in early 2009. Karl is aiming to study at Macquarie (2 yrs) & hopefully secure permanent residency.
    Abby our daughter is coming with us, 18, graphic designer, and hopefully our son Sam (20) will follow soon thereafter.
    Why us? Because we are a hard working, clean, houseproud family, who live a Christian life meaning we don't smoke, we don't tell lies, we don't steal etc, and only drink in moderation! That also means no wild parties upsetting the neighbours whilst you are away! But we do like to laugh!
    Karl is also experienced in home maintenance, Sue in keeping a house well run and VERY clean.
    We can also do airport runs, schedule to run the home whilst you visit if needed, and generally exceed your expectations in many ways.
    This would be a great way for us to "find our feet" whilst settling into Australia, and then move to our own home after a suitable period of time.
    If you have a larger property, and need someone you can trust totally to care for it as you would, then we are an answer to your prayers, and you ours.
    Thanks for reading our details.
    Regards, Karl & Sue Green.

  • 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

  • After three years successful house sitting in Sydney and WA (references available) we are now looking for a housesit in WA, SA, Victoria or NSW, we will be available from approx 10th Dec 08 to the beginning of Feb 09.
    We are a retired English couple, non smoking, who just love cats; we come back to Australia each summer as we find European winters impossible so we have vowed to live in sandals forever. You could call us grey nomads with the aim to get to know our globe before we are too creaky to move.
    We fly into Sydney about the 1st Oct 08 as we have been asked back to housesit for the couple we sat for in Perth over Xmas 07/08 so they can go over to NSW Oct/Nov. We will be driving to Perth so we can meet you on the way over if it is convenient.
    During the European summer we spend our time in Rochefort, France, very close to the Atlantic coast and from time to time we pop over to the UK to see the family.
    My hobby is sailing and learning more about Capt James Cook and Barbara excels at needlework.
    If you would like to see what we get up to on our trips including photos check out our travel blog on
    www.globenotes.com/beeroy
    We look forward to hearing from you.

Occupation: Manager, Social worker
Ages

  • Hi, We are a non-smoking, married couple (early 40's) with 2 daughters aged 16 & 11. We have been living in Sydney since August 2005. We are currently house sitting, until mid January 2008, for a family that are overseas. Prior to this we rented for a year in Turramurra and a year in Wahroonga.
    We own a home in New Zealand that is currently rented. As homeowners ourselves we understand the importance of having the right people in our house. We have always treated the 3 houses we have occupied, as if they were our own. We are house proud & appreciate a well maintained house.
    We both work in professional environments. Vanessa has worked at Royal North Shore Hospital since January 2006 as a social worker. I transferred from our NZ office in August 2005. My position is Software Support Manager for an international IT company based in Lindfield.
    Ideally, but not a requirement, we would prefer to remain in / around the Turramurra area, as both our children have attended the local schools since 2005. We also play for local sports teams in the area & are members of the Kissing Point Club. We wish to continue this association.
    We are pet friendly & are currently looking after 2 cats & goldfish. We do not have pets of our own.
    We are ideally looking for long-term accommodation starting from January 2008. We will however consider house sitting for 2 month periods but nothing less. We are planning on staying in Sydney for at least another 2 years, possibly longer.
    We will pay for all utilities during our stay. All 3 properties have had a pool & we are capable of maintaining one if required. We are also happy to maintain grounds / gardens. We are happy to pay a bond. We can provide references along with character references.
    We are more than happy to provide more details and answer any questions either via the phone or email.

  • I am a single female military girl and have just sold my own home after carrying out internal and external renovations. My job means that I am only in location until the end of 2008 and I really don't want to move in to a small rental after the joys of owning my own home and garden.
    I am sporty and motivated and spend my spare time navigating rally cars.
    I can provide excellent references and would be happy to care for your pets too. I have a close friend who is a vet nurse so help is always on hand.
    I look forward to hearing from you.
