More information about this house sitter

Hi there! My name is Mark and I am a former professional photographer, now adventure guide, taking time off to write.

As a photographer I travelled a lot as part of my job and have grown fond of the semi-nomadic lifestyle. I was previously a home-owner, from 2001 until 2021, and understand the feeling of being house-proud and attached to your home in a way that renting doesn't quite do.

I've house-sat off and on for years, including for a total of five months in 2022, through a Facebook group, for several months in 2023, and a month in 2025. I have looked after dogs, cats, fish, horses, and spent lots of time around cattle, sheep, chickens, and pet birds.

I grew up with pets and have taken care of a variety of pets in places ranging from city apartments to working farms. Animals love me and I very much enjoy seeing them happy.

I have completed a two-week, full-time Assistance Dogs Australia course on caring for assistance dogs, which has given me extra skills and knowledge on caring for pets and knowing their needs.

As a photographer I have worked with pets in fairly high-pressure situations, having to get great photos within a short timeframe, which gave me more skills in handling animals.

I've also taken care of plants and gardens in a wide range of climates, from the Canadian prairies to sub-tropical Australia.

My hobbies include anything active in nature, especially hiking, swimming, and rock climbing. I also enjoy reading, playing guitar, and writing. Read more...
