More information about this house sitter

Hello, I'm a bit of a gypsy with a thirst for travel and always curious.
When I first moved to Tasmania, I did some housesitting, before I found a house.
I have recently returned from a month in Thailand and I'm currently back in WA for a short while to catch up with friends and family. Then, at the end of October, I'll be returning to Tasmania.
But before my return, I'll happily look after your home and enjoy the company of any little friend/s if the timeframe is suitable for you.
I love animals, and miss having my own little companion. But with the moving around I do, it's very impractical at the moment. Friends know of my love for all creatures as you can see by my photos. Napoleon the regal Burmese, Bear the big boofy chocolate labrador who loved inspecting the big paddock with me every day, Leo who helped me with crossword puzzles, and Lizzy who, as you can see, was not impressed when I put my scarf on her. Only allowed 4 photos, so can't show little Milly (Maltese Terrier), Delilah (cocker spaniel), Linda (horse) or Chai (cat shaped like a buddha). Leo, Lizzy, Delilah and Chai (a dear old cat who's no longer with us) have been entrusted to my care at various times in the town where I usually live. Because of a sudden request, I recently housesat with 2 refuge cats, Jazz (very timid) and Mia (extravert) for a client who needed to be in the Eastern staes urgently.

WHY DO I WANT TO HOUSESIT? 
Housesitting is a win/win for all parties concerned. For me personally, it's a change of scenery, a change of circumstance. An ideal way to live outside what would be my 'normal' life. And hopefully, allow my hosts to have peace of mind while away from their home and/or pets.

WHAT RELEVANT LIFESKILLS AND EXPERIENCE DO I BRING?
I've lived quite a full life and continue to do so. Although I have retired from the formal employment environment, the experience I've gained via such, I find has stood me in good stead with regard to relationships with people and animals, generally by calm and gentle interaction.

Looking forward to talking with you.
