🌿 House/Farm Sitter Available – Trustworthy, Practical & Animal-Savvy 🌿

Hi everyone! I’m Michaela — currently living full-time on the road in my van with my two well-travelled companions: Minnie, my gentle 12-year-old mastiff x, and Stig, my confident 6-year-old cat. 🐾

I’m looking for house and/or farm sitting opportunities from September onward, starting in southern WA or SA, then heading east/ north east across the country. I’m ideally after longer-term sits, but open to shorter ones if it’s a good fit.

⸻

A bit about me:
I’m a hands-on, practical person who’s spent most of my life working with animals. I was a horse riding instructor for 7 years and a ranger for 11, and I’ve also helped care for friend’s farms, feeding calves and lambs, checking fences, and keeping things running smoothly while they were away.

I’m confident handling a wide range of animals — from dogs, cats, horses and livestock to reptiles, poultry, and small pets. I can administer medications, manage routines, and respond calmly if anything goes wrong. I’m also happy to help with general property upkeep and grounds work, depending on what’s needed.

I currently work full-time remotely as an airport compliance specialist, so I maintain a stable routine. I travel with Starlink internet, so I don’t need to rely on local Wi-Fi.

I value clear communication, respect the trust that comes with caring for someone’s home and animals, and always aim to leave things better than I found them.

I’m licensed for trucks, boats, and motorcycles, and experienced with quad bikes and ride-on mowers. My own pets are used to the nomadic lifestyle and are non destructive— they’ve also lived alongside chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs and more.

To keep things low-stress for my older dog, I’m best suited to properties without resident dogs.

⸻

I’m fully self-contained in my van, but would appreciate access to a secure yard or enclosed area for Minnie, power, water and ideally laundry, kitchen, and bathroom facilities. I’d be grateful for full use of the house but I am flexible. Stig is content in the van and comes out on her harness and lead.

In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, swimming, fishing, and reading. This lifestyle gives me the freedom I love — and I find real purpose in caring for animals and properties along the way.

If you’re planning time away and want peace of mind, feel free to get in touch. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit!

Thanks so much,
Michaela 🐶🐱🚐 Read more...
