More information about this house sitter

We are a mother and son who are pet owners, both love animals and would be very reliable people to look after your house and pets.

We live in the inner west and am also a home owner so understand the importance of respecting other people’s property.

Our preference would be to stay in the inner west on a longer term stay as my son attends a school in this area. If you have a pool that would be a absolute bonus as my son would love to stay somewhere with a pool.

I am new to house sitting although have done for friends on various occasions in the past.

Was previously a member of the Cat Protection Society for some years and have been a owner of various pets from a very young age, ie cats, dogs, budgerigars, chickens, guinea pigs.

My 11 year old boy also loves animals. We recently acquired a rag doll cat which my son just loves and adores. He often takes photos of her to post on his Instagram account. Jacob is very much into Lego and movie making and probably too much into computer/video games so is not destructive at all in the house. He understands the importance of looking after property.

I have been slowly restoring a beautiful Federation/Victorian terrace which was unfortunately altered and stripped of most its original features back in the 60-70's. I am wanting to save some money so that I can continue to restore my property back to it's original state, so it can stand proud once again! (just wot was going on during this era that home owners felt the need to replace leadlight windows and cedar timber work to beer bottle glass and laminex!!?)

Also, wanting to make my property more liveable and child friendly as my house is located alongside the railway line and under a flight path, so am keen to double glaze the property to reduce the noise to make the house quieter as the constant noise can become quite annoying at times. I would also like to add greenery/gardens to make the house more family/environmentally friendly as the yard is currently a cement jungle and not very appealing. I am originally from the country, so really love having some greenery around me and some quietness!

I love gardening, hence my dream to transform the yard to something a bit greener. I find gardening very therapeutic, so would be very happy to maintain and water your gardens while you are away.

I have been a short term vacation host since late 2015 and have a listing on a few well known international short-term stay websites. I currently have approximately 15 very positive reviews by guests which have been posted. These reviews can be viewed on-line at any time.

In the past few months, I have been a host to students from overseas, including Japanese, Chinese and Tahitian students. This has been a really enjoyable experience for both myself and my son as we learn about the different cultures and has made for some interesting dinner conversations as we try and translate the conversations.

Having lost my mother from pancreatic cancer approximately 2 years ago, I have become very aware of the importance of eating healthy and believe that as Hippocrates stated, 'food is thy medicine'. Although put a Tim Tam or lamington in front of me and well, I am have been know to cave in to temptation!

I am a non smoker, am very house proud so feel I would be a great house sitter for your home! :-)
