Skilled Caretaker Family

More information about this house sitter

We are a family of four with two gorgeous girls ages 6 and 9 years. We are non smokers and as parents we are conscious of maintaining a clean and tidy space and teaching our children to respect the space of others. Our children are well behaved, kind and just adore spending time outdoors with animals both large and small.

We have a background in caretaking houses and large properties, off grid cottages and tiny homes (with and without electricity).

We spent the entire year of 2018 housesitting with our small children and have many references. We have also house sit on and off over the past 2 years. in this time we cared for domestic and large farm animals. We own a home in Stanthorpe, QLD so we can return at anytime if plans change.
