More information about this house sitter

Hi - We have been looking after homes and animals of all sorts -
for over 15 years now - and have happily cared for many , many homes and various much loved pets and smaller farm animals .
By our own choice , we only do a few sits per year now. We are very pleased to say that we have NEVER had a complaint from any home owner that we have sat for .. We are both fully vaccinated.
We have checkable security references and multiple verifiable pet , unit and house sit references .
We own our own home in Brisbane - ( when we are home ! ) Our adult son is in residence ,
( when we are not home ) We have been listed on Mind A Home twice ( we had a break between memberships ) and we were on another reputable site previously ( long term ).
We do many re sits and clients often contact us privately.
To read more about us and why we house sit : read on :)
We pet and house sit to enrich our own lives and because we enjoy lots of travel ( more than we can afford! )
By house and pet sitting , we feel we can help others have affordable holidays as well as having semi holidays ourselves. For us , pet and house sitting is mutually beneficial to both you and us :) We also REALLY love animals . We are sensible and reliable and we also know how to have fun with your pets without endangering them.
We have attached some of our many references.
We also have genuine reviews and photos on our profile as well . If you want even more info - read on :)
Our reviewers and referees all kindly say that -
Ivan and I are reliable , resourceful , trustworthy , kind and very experienced with animal well being , happiness and we will continue with your pet training for you . Further detailed information : We are both very house proud and we enjoy our own rain forest style garden at home .
We are fairly fit 😁 and very healthy and regular walking / working and playing with your animals is , for us , the normal thing to do. We will leave your home / pool / yard as we find it, and your pets happy . As we have previously said, we have been looking after family homes , apartments , executive homes and most kinds of animals for many years ( off and on ) without a single complaint from any owner that we have sat for :) - EVER . ## We strongly advise you to make an early booking for any school holiday period .
Our photos are of our own old lady tabby cat - now passed , Sasha - our German S , who passed aged 17 and of own little white doggie ( Scrappy ) who passed away recently , aged 16 . Also we have included a few snaps of the pets we have looked after recently .
We treat all homes with the utmost respect and we promise that , whilst you are away, we will love and take care of your pets just as you do. We are a little too mature to be holding parties in your home :) .


Pools will not go green with us in charge 😁 and basic pumps of all sorts are usually not any problem ( please leave written instructions) and we can deal with most minor emergency home and garden issues and also pet first aid .
- Life is too short to stay home !
We see house and pet sitting as a win win situation for all of us.
More about Ivan and I :
Coral is retired from teaching and Ivan is a retired tradesman ( own painting business )
We have lived in Victoria for many years and also lived and worked in the UK and Croatia for long periods . We have lived in our own home in Queensland for over 15 years now . We enjoy giving you a holiday without you having to worry about your home and pets.
In return , we enjoy having lots of semi holidays in nice locations. Comfy and clean accommodation is all we need .
When we had our own pets and they have had to be put in kennels :( we found it made us miserable so we try to make this something others do not have to do. Kennels often refuse older pets too - and that IS a problem !
We have also been burgled and that is no fun! - WE UNDERSTAND :)
We send a few of our references with our applications - The contact details for most of our referees can be obtained through our private email address. You will understand that some owners request that their privacy is protected.
We are very security conscious and we are happy to care for pet free homes too.
When we look after your animals and they are not simply tolerated by us , but loved and cared for as if our own . We can communicate with you while you are away if you would like that ( or not !! - as you choose )
