More information about this house sitter

I turned 69 this year, though I'm still not convinced that can be true! Divorced 20 years ago, with 2 much-loved daughters now in their late-20s and making their way in the world.

I love being outdoors, and have worked in the recreation trails and heritage interpretation fields for over 30 years now.

Books are a big part of my life, as is hiking and keeping myself fit and healthy (I do pilates and yoga daily). I've travelled a fair bit over the years, and have lived in different parts of Australia, and in the USA for a couple of periods of 6-9 months.

I grew up on a farm in south-west WA and consequently am comfortable and experienced with most animals. I'm particularly fond of cats and have had several much-loved moggies pass through my life in years gone by. I am also practical and reasonably handy with tools, machinery and equipment.

I'm generally a quiet person and like my own space, but also enjoy good coffee and conversation.

I've owned my own home on a number of occasions, and currently have a small unit in south-east Tasmania. I've also rented and shared houses, and have house-sat and looked after a range of properties for family, friends and friends-of-friends. I am a non-smoker / non-drinker, respectful of others and their possessions, and have clean and tidy habits.

I'm happy to provide more information by phone or email, but am confident you will return to your house and find it exactly as you left it - complete with happy and well cared-for animals (if you have them). Read more...
