Occupation:
Retired
Senior RAAF Officer
Ages:
59.
-
I'm a retired RAAF Officer with complete freedom in
relation to time. However, I am also a member of The Salvation Army who
does considerable volunteer work, primarily in the USA. Notable
achievements include organising the warehouse for the Pentagon Disaster
post 9 /11 (150 000 sq ft warehouse full of brand new donated items). I
have also organised four fundraising campaigns, two in Arlington Va,
and two in Lawton, Ok., and administered a Homeless Shelter in Lawton.
When doing my volunteer work, I regard myself as an unpaid employee, not
a volunteer.
I own a home in Mandurah which I have let at 20 % beneath market value
because of the financial circumstances of my tenants. I am buying
another home in Canberra which I have allowed family members to live in
rent free. I am a great believer in having a social conscience. This is
not because of some in-built desire to ingratiate myself. It's primarily
in recognition that I have received such wonderful gifts throughout my
life.
To whom much is given, much is
expected.
I have had experience in home sitting (not
house sitting...its your home not your house!).
I love animals. Sadly, because of some military caused disabilities I
have some minor limitations in performing physical labour. I would like
to have access to broadband Internet (my cost)... telephone is not a
problem if broadband is available as I have a VOIP calling card. A car
would be handy (although I actually prefer public transport).
Interested in me...why not email me below
and we can have a chat. Who knows we might just fit! As always, any
blessings.

As homeowners ourselves we appreciate the concerns any one will have in
ensuring that their house is well cared for and we would treat the
property with the same care and consideration as we do our own.
References can be provided regarding our suitability including for one
us a current police check.
We should be very happy to discuss with you your needs and our mutual
expectations as well as providing you with any other information you

Hi, my name is Janis. My partner Adrian and I are non-smokers with
professional backgrounds. We are reliable, responsible people who respect
other peoples property & belongings. We are both animal lovers and proud
housekeepers and as we have been house sitting for nearly 4 years,
we have excellent references and home owners that will be delighted
to give a verbal reference should you require one urgently.
Our children are all independent living in Qld NSW & Vic. which enables us
to move around enjoying house sitting for short and long term situations.
In some cases we have house-sat for the same home owners on more than one
occasion. We look forward to looking after your home & pets while you are
away and assure you, that you will find everything in perfect order on
your return.
Thank you for considering us as your Sitters
and we can be contacted below

- Hi! For the last couple of years my
main
occupation has been travelling. I arrived back in Perth from months of
travel in May this year.
In this time I have experienced a lot of different living situations. Many
people have generously hosted me while travelling.
I love children and have been working for months
with year old children, which shows my responsibility and maturity.
Currently I live with my parents, and in the past have looked after their
place while they go on holidays. At the moment I'm
looking for peace and quiet, and to live on my own. Hopefully I can help
someone out while achieving this!
Cheers, Kara

Hello!
Thank you for looking at our profile.
We are Sean & Michelle Shields, originally from the UK but moved to
Ireland in Y2K and have been there for the last 7 years.
We have been granted our full visa's to Australia and are planning to
travel around all the states for about 2 years and see as much of
Australia as we can before settling down here.
We are both Non-smokers and would choose not to house sit in a smokers
home.
We are however very pet friendly and would love to sit for a homeowner who
has either cats, dogs or both. I (Sean) am becoming a "keen" gardener and
am quite able to maintain lawns and flower beds to a high standard.
We are both from professional careers, Michelle being a Midwife and myself
in construction management.
We are now on our 3rd house sit and all has
gone very well to date. We can provide you with references from
previous homeowners, copies of our police checks and also photo copies
of our passports as a means of verifying our characters.
We will be available from the 21st of October 2007 and open to invitations
to sit for the coming two years.
We have found that it is best to plan early and have a sitter/homeowner in
place well before the wanted date.
Well that's about it, I hope we can help each other out in the manner that
this site is intended.
If we are not quite what you are looking for, I hope you find a sitter
soon and enjoy your vacation.
Best wishes, Sean & Michelle Shields
