House sitting Victoria

Sitters Available - Victoria

• Experienced sitters.
  We are a happily married couple of 38 years and enjoy travelling Australia in our caravan. We have been house-sitting for the past 7 years and love the lifestyle this provides, allowing us to stay in and experience different areas.
  We have always had pets including dogs, cats, fish, chooks and budgies when we lived in our own home. As a result of living in a caravan, we are very conscious of the need to conserve both water and electricity usage.
  We are committed Christians, are extremely honest, reliable and trustworthy and are both non-smokers and non-drinkers. We have had house caring experience involving short and longer stays and understand how important it is to have totally honest, reliable people living in and taking care of your home. We have current police clearances and are very happy to provide excellent references when requested.

• We are a fit, non-smoking, honest, reliable Australian couple who retired at the end of 2006 from responsible positions as a primary school teacher (Mary, 61) and Species Conservation Manager, and Regional Liaison Manager in Cairns, with the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (Tony, 64, and a JP).
  We live in Townsville and are planning to come south for a few weeks/months from January 2013 to be closer to family and enjoy the beaches etc. We love the SE Queensland area and know it well having successfully completed many house sits there. We would very much like to do others.
  We have proven and extensive worldwide experience (22 successful sits to date with many repeats), and excellent references, in house-sitting and caring for homes and pets as well as aquariums, gardens and swimming pools. As we write, we are at a repeat sit of 6 weeks in beautiful Caloundra. We live quietly and respect our neighbours.
  Since retiring we have travelled for long periods away from our own home in Townsville. We love travel, seeing new places and meeting new people, and are keen to do as much as possible BG (before grandchildren).
  We pride ourselves on buying whatever we need and costing home owners nothing. We confidently assure you that both your home and your pets will be cared for as our own.
  If you are interested in exploring the possibility that we may be able to assist, please DO CONTACT US. Our photograph can be forwarded and we would be more than happy to email references.
  With best wishes and in the hope that we can be of assistance,
  Mary and Tony

• Mrs Noleen Dowling and Ms Shirley Turnbull from New Zealand, two very honest reliable nice ladies wishing to holiday together would love the chance to house sit as we feel we would be the type of person home owners could feel confident having in their home. This would also be a chance for us to have a more affordable break away.
  Noleen is married to Mike who has no interest in travel; and she is very active in the community giving much of her time voluntary to the frail elderly and also to the local ms society. Shirley is the manager of an Anglican care rest home which has a very high standard of care and an excellent reputation and has held this demanding position for 21 years.
  Neither of us has house-sat before but given the opportunity our commitment would be 100%. Noleen and Shirley have been close friends for over 40 years. yours sincerely, Shirley Turnbull.

• I am experienced house sitter who is extremely conscious of the need not to let down home owners. My greatest disappointment is having to refuse owners who have had arrangements in place only to have a sitter cancel at the last minute. If I commit to you then you can plan your absence in absolute peace.
  I have an impeccable character being a Justice of the Peace, a retired RAAF officer and a member of The Salvation Army. I own three homes in Atlanta Georgia which I have rented out so am totally empathetic to the need of home owners.
  I have a gorgeous Fox Terrier who owns our home with my wife and I. My wife has a job here in Canberra so does not accompany me on Full Time assignments; however, she will join me during my assignment.
  I would prefer the availability of a vehicle although in major cities I prefer the use of public transport.
  I am in great demand...obviously I must be doing something correct. Therefore, its advisable to get in quickly. Overseas assignments are considered.
