More information about this house sitter

We are Rob and Sue. I am a Mechanical engineer with Production and Sales management experience. Now semi-retired, we are travelling Australia in our caravan, farm/house sitting along the way. I was brought up on National Parks in East Africa and farms/ranch/remote properties in Zimbabwe. Whilst living at Nairobi National Park, one of my first “pets” was a lion cub that had been orphaned. I am good with all animals, enthusiastic, and like to keep busy.
Sue is also from Zim', but don't hold that against us. We are Australians now, and are so grateful to you guys for letting us in. Australia is such a great country.

Sue was a marketing assistant in our life on the treadmill, but now she chases her passion of painting seascapes, landscapes and animals.

I am good at general maintenance, carpentry, grounds work, vehicle and general farm maintenance. If there are things that you need doing in and around the home/yard, then I can help. I am also understanding if you want things left alone.

We are personable people and like to make a difference for the better in whatever we do.
Photography is one of my interests that keeps me well entertained.

Brisbane has been our base for the past 23 years, where we have raised 2 wonderful children to be well balanced, responsible adults. Our daughter is a fashion designer in London and our son is a Mechanical Engineer in Brisbane. You may conclude that the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree.
In Brisbane, we have owned/own a couple of properties, and that brings an appreciation of the value of your bricks and mortar.

We hope that we can meet in person one day and help you out with your "sit". Read more...
