More information about this house sitter

Hi

I am a 59-year-old professional with extensive house-sitting experience over the past seven years. I can provide references from many house-sits (over 60 sits to-date) as well as a national police check.

Most of the house-sits I do are repeat sits (more than 10 times for one couple), which is perhaps the best form of endorsement — but I'm always looking for new opportunities and experiences. I am interested in house-sitting in Melbourne and nearby rural areas.

I own a family home in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne and have owned a number of homes over the past 20 years. My family has always had pets — dogs, cats, rabbits, fish — and caring for yours and showing them the appropriate amount of care and affection would be a pleasure.

My profession is writing and I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to spend most of my days working from home. That means I can be around the house during the day to keep pets company and ensure your home is occupied from a security perspective.

I am a non-smoker, light drinker, clean living guy who likes a quiet lifestyle. I'm also a bit of a fitness fanatic, which means walking energetic dogs is a joy. I'm very security conscious and like to keep things clean and tidy.

I have experience looking after dogs and cats of all ages and breeds, including rescue dogs with anxiety issues and pets that require daily medication, a strict food regime and lots of pampering. I have also done a number of farm sits caring for thoroughbred horses, cows, sheep, chickens and other animals.

My experience includes the significant responsibility of house-sitting for an overseas-based homeowner specifically for the marketing campaign and sale of her Melbourne home. I was required to present the house and garden for weekly 'open for inspections', liaise with the real estate agent and represent the homeowner at the auction.

You will find me to be a very reliable house-sitter who is extremely respectful of your property and committed to exceeding your expectations.

Look forward to hearing from you.
