Friendly, reliable house and pet sitter

More information about this house sitter

I am 35 years old and work as a lecturer at the University of Wollongong.
I recently brought a house in Bathurst, where I am originally from, but I am waiting until the tenants move out before I move back! Which brings me to my housesitting journey!
We had to leave our last rental in March so I have been filling the time since house sitting around the Wollongong/Nowra/Sydney region. And I have been loving the experience so far. This has involved looking after both cats and dogs - and keeping the house clean and tidy. I pride myself on making sure the house is looking lovely when the owners come back, which includes the plants (both indoor and outdoor) looking healthy and milk in the fridge and bread in the cupboard.

I have lots of experience looking after homes and pets. I have cared for dogs of different breeds on many different occasions, which filled a lovely gap until I got my own groodle (Chook). She is one year old, and other than a bit cheeky, a very gorgeous girl. She is staying at my parents house while I am housesitting (with lots of video calls in between!).
I have grown up surrounded by pets - cats, dogs, donkeys, chooks... and one point hermit crabs. I am very comfortable around animals and feel confident looking after them.
I also have a lot of experience looking after homes. I have house sat before and I always strive to maintain a very clean and tidy house. I have worked as a professional cleaner before (both in a 5 star resort and in domestic settings) so I am very capable at cleaning.
I also have experience gardening (mowing, weeding, watering etc) and have a thriving indoor plant collection. Read more...
