• Experienced sitters:
  Hi, we have now been house sitting for 18 months and we are truly enjoying the experiences this offers. We enjoy looking after all types of household pets including those without fur and also have experience with small farms.
  We are an energetic, enthusiastic and honest well meaning couple with family in Western Australia and Tasmania.
  We run a small IT Software and Services Company and our only requirement is that there is Telstra mobile phone coverage and internet access. We have a home in Maleny Queensland and like living in this special part of the world very much but since our children have grown up and moved on we are enjoying the opportunities house sitting offers to explore other areas of Australia.
  We love house sitting and do it so home owners can travel knowing that their homes and pets are safe and secure. We have police clearances if required but prefer to give names and telephone numbers of previous sits we have cared for.

• Are you looking for a quiet, clean, reliable, non-smoker to look after your home and pets while you are away?
  I am a former aid worker (education project manager) with experience in East Timor, Rwanda, and Congo. I am now working on a book and am looking for a quiet location in which to write. I have recently been granted an Australian residence visa (including police clearances) as a "last remaining relative".
  I am the fortunate proprietor of my own home in the US (Hawaii) and understand the responsibilities of home-ownership; now I need to live closer to my family in Australia. I do not smoke or drink; I generally live a very quiet, reserved life. I am a clean, tidy, orderly and organized person. I love cats, and am also willing to take care of a small dog needing only limited exercise. I do not drive, and would prefer to live within easy walking distance of shops and basic services.
  I would also prefer a long term house-sit of nine months or more.
  The best way to contact me is by e-mail. I will be available by phone from early November onwards. Thank you!

• Experienced sitter.
  Hi. I'm looking to housesit house/ acreage / flat / boat / caravan etc.
  I'm a fit 66 year old retired business owner. I had my own business making and selling all types of chocolates. After a few years I got sick and tired of the government and all their paperwork. So with a friend I spent 5 years working my way around good ole Auz.
  I worked on farms, outback stations, and in factory's. Had the best time ever. Now I am an Author.
  Even though at the present moment I do not have any animals, I have had cats, dogs, a horse, birds, and believe it or not ants. I love being around them as they bring you peace and happiness.
  I do not smoke, or have wild parties. Sitting out under the stars at night I think is the best thing in the world to do.
  The house sitting job I have at the moment is on 5 acres with animals and ten large gardens.
  Please feel free to ring me any time 0417862410 and I will be only too happy to answer any questions that you might have. intothecrystal.com is my website for my for my book and resume. Have a great day, Betty Anderson

• I am a writer and yoga teacher living in Melbourne. I've kept my own home for 25 years, raising two children on my own. I am tidy, and used to work as a house cleaner, so I know how to keep a place clean in an environmentally friendly manner. My children are old enough to live their own lives now, so I'd be house sitting on my own, and loving it, as Maxwell Smart would say.
  I love animals and will happily look after fish, birds, dogs and cats. Walking dogs is no problem. Nor am I fussed if the animal sleeps on the bed with me.
  I am quiet, and like these times away from home to read, write, take walks, and generally just be. I'm not a wild party sorta girl. More a meditation and 'om' sorta girl. Deva Premal rather than AC/DC.
  I'm vegetarian, a non-smoker and non-drinker. My addictions are books, and chocolate.
  I don't mind a bit of gentle weeding in good weather, but draw the line at remodelling your garden or building a fence.
  I empty letterboxes daily, don't make phone calls (I would have my mobile phone with me for that), and my own laptop.
  Delconways Home Helpers and the City of Monash Home Help service can both attest to my honesty and integrity.

• Experienced sitter
  Old-fashioned reliability and a belief that "your word is your bond". I've lived by that all my life and apply it to the house sits I do. I've already done a dozen house sit assignments ranging from Perth to New Zealand and generally involving at least one dog or cat.
  Unlike people looking for long terms I am mostly interested in shorter periods up to four or five weeks but if you're on the Sunshine Coast (particularly Buderim) and looking for a long-term sitter I'd love to hear from you.
  Thanks to house-sitting we've fallen in love with the Sunshine Coast, Coffs Harbour, Hobart and the Port Stephens area and look for repeat assignments there, though I'm open to experiencing other attractive spots.
  Often you can get a "feel" for people over the phone so I'm happy to chat to people looking for a house sitter but wanting to be sure they've got the right person.
  I've been retired for eight years now after a thirty year teaching career and love bowls, golf, reading, great coffees, walking.
  If I sound like the sort of person you'd be happy to entrust your house/plants/pets with then I'd love to hear from 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.
  Though I am interested in Sydney in October 2010 and February 2011, after that I would be very interested in any housesitting anywhere in Aus, Europe, NZ etc

• Hi, we are a professional couple with two gorgeous girls - Tessa aged 11 and Cassie aged 10. We have been living in Darwin and are moving home to Hobart after 5 years away. We are currently looking for our own home, but want to be sure it is 'just right' for our family, so don't want to rush into anything. We would love to house sit for people while we are searching! We are very honest, reliable and trustworthy. We have references from our rental agency in Darwin and are currently house sitting a friends home until the end of January. We would be available from the end of January for an indefinite period. It would be wonderful if you are able to contact us, we are truly good people who would care for your home as if it were our own.

• 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.

If sitting the van will be stored for the duration. We are both non smokers & John enjoys an occasional glass of wine. We are by nature a clean & tidy couple (caravanning allows not for sloth) & have our own home in Qld under rental so we understand your concern for the welfare of your much loved home.
  We had pets of our own prior to travelling; so are animal lovers by nature & more than able to care for your cat or dog whilst you are away.
  At present in a van park in SE Adelaide.
  We are happy to discuss you concerns & requirements with you at any time. Give us a call on mobile and well take it from there.
