More information about this house sitter

I'm a quiet, cheerful, responsible and caring 62yo. Non smoker. Non drinker. Am leaving Queensland Jan 31 to drive to South Australia with my son, 36yo .. a specialist multimedia designer for the big screens behind presenters at Awards Dinners. He will be relocating there and we would love to housesit to familiarize with the area and have a home environment with pet. We both are very mindful of caring for others homes and pets. Areas from Adelaide, along the Glenelg coast and south to Victor Harbor.

I love house-sitting in different environments and being able to maintain people's homes while they are away. The owners are truly always delighted when they come back. Pets are really pampered and have a great time. They get to have a relaxing retreat as I am in the house most of the time. I send photos to the owners during their time away along with any news.

Have housesat at Noosaville taking care of a dog with an injured leg, a large home at Kenmore with pool and overhauling their garden, a small beach place at Currumbin, a unit at Labrador on the Gold Coast taking care of a Staffy, Peregian Springs with King Charles, Chihuahua, 2 white cats, Eatons Hill with Staffy, acreage at Yatala with dogs and Eatons Hill with two cats. Some homes were palatial and with pools, others suburban and a beach shack.

All owners have either had me back or keep my name for their future holidays and stay in touch. One lady wanted me to stay forever.

I had rented for nine years (the ultimate house-sit) and looked after the property extremely well as my agent could vouch. Massive redevelopments came through the suburb .. many homes being sold in lots of 5 for units and the owner also decided to sell. Sadly the house has been demolished for two homes.

It became more pratical to house-sit until my daughter, who was in the Christchurch earthquakes, can come to Australia. I would then live near where she gets employment.

I take caring for a house or pets to heart and look after them very responsibly and lovingly as if they were my own.

In my younger days, I worked for a law firm and am still friends with the partners and staff 3 decades later. All would vouch for my character.

I cared for my mum in the last year of her life and her story is testament to my care of people but that nature also extends to pets, places and things. Her story is online dotsamazingadventuresdotcom

I have had dogs all my life and usually two at a time. My last were brother and sister King Charles who both passed during 2015 aged 13yo. Others were cat, fish and budgies.

My pool knowledge is only basic - removing leaves, cleaning the filter bucket and adding specified quantities of chemicals.

Am able to suppy character references and look forward to being able to help.

All the best, Sylvia
