More information about this house sitter

Hi, I’m Magnus - a friendly, responsible house sitter currently enjoying some lifestyle flexibility while my long-term home is under construction. I'm the originator of an environmentally conscious 20-townhouse cohousing development in Eltham, VIC, which has been featured in The Guardian (Just search for Magnus Irvine in the Guardian for a squiz, or have a look a the website for Brougham Street Cohousing).

This community project has been a rewarding journey in collaboration, care, and trust — values I also bring to every house sit. I take pride in being clean, respectful, and dependable, and I enjoy looking after animals, gardens, and homes as if they were my own.

I'm currently working remotely on IT-based projects and enjoy the change of scenery and calm that house sitting brings. Happy to provide references or have a chat to see if it’s a good fit.
