Animal Lover and Experienced Gardener

55, Company Director

Hello -

I'm an animal lover, multiple cat "Mom" over the years, home owner in a few places, and avid gardener. I love the outdoors; I'm a non-smoker, keeping fit with bushwalking, running and walking. After many years in Sydney, I'm now living in Orange and loving the pace of life.

I work as a company director, mostly working from home so I have a lot of flexibility. My role is perfect for my lifestyle - it requires a lot of organisation, discipline and integrity, but also allows me plenty of personal freedom and downtime.

My work is part time with lots of gaps between busy periods, and I don't have family in Australia (originally from Chicago, moved here in 2007). So I have plenty of time to spend helping with animals, caring for them, walking, and just enjoying their presence. My other interests include travel, cooking (especially baking!), reading, my running club and the garden.

I'm looking for pet-sitting / house-sitting opportunities to get my animal fix and enjoy the variety and experience of new places. I am open to short and long-term arrangements, almost anywhere in NSW.

I'm happy to share a police background check and am open to a call or Zoom so you can get to know me.

Sue, was a wonderful house & dog sitter. Both house and dog were well cared for and everything was very much as we left it on our return. Sue kept in regular contact and has always been very easy to communicate with. I would be very happy to recommend Sue and have her sit for us again.
 
DAVID (Menzies Creek VIC, Dec 2023 - 1 week 3 nights)
We would highly recommend Sue without hesitation. She is friendly, capable and reliable which put us at ease straight away. She is a great communicator and updated us regularly, so we could relax and enjoy our holiday. All the animals and gardens were very well cared for. It was fabulous to arrive home to a spotless house too. Many thanks Sue!
 
KATHY (Bredbo NSW, Dec 2022 - 1 week 5 days)
Sue sat for us for just over a week, she took great care of our 2 dogs and our home. We felt really comfortable with Sue from our first communication and right through the sit. She did everything we requested in regards to our dogs routine and we returned to our house the way we left it and 2 very well cared for and happy dogs. We will definitely reach out to Sue 1st for any future sits, we are very lucky to have found her! Highly recommend :)
 
MELISA (Mulgoa NSW, Apr 2022 - 1 week 1 day)
Sue was a pleasure to have in our home, we felt reassured that our pets and home were well taken care of whilst we were away. We were very pleased with the care and cleanliness of our home on our return and would welcome her back.
 
LIZ (Huntley NSW, Aug 2021 - 2 weeks 1 day)
Sue was amazing from start to finish. Great communication at the outset and throughout the sit. She sent messages and photos of Boo and that helped alleviate any apprehension we had at leaving him. When we arrived home our house was immaculate. Sheets and towels washed and the bed remade. Thank you Sue, we are eternally grateful
 
MARGARET (Bowral NSW, Apr 2021 - 1 week)
Sue was the perfect house sitter - communicated so well in the lead up, and during her time with my cat & dog. We came home to a clean house & happy pets! Thank you Sue!
 
TENILLE (East Bowral NSW, Jan 2021 - 3 days)
Sue is such a caring and considerate house/dog sitter. We have no hesitation in highly recommending her. My only hesitation in doing so is that we might miss out on having her back when we need her. Great communication and wonderful and caring person.
 
LESLIE (Warrimoo NSW, Dec 2020 - 1 week 4 days)
Sue was a supremely competent, professional, friendly and adaptable housesitter. We felt very fortunate to have her looking after our place when our animal care tasks required increased significantly from initial expectations. She also left our place in amazing condition and communicated well. Can't recommend Sue highly enough!
 
LINDSAY (Orange NSW, Sep 2020 - 1 week 1 day)
Sue was outstanding as a sitter and honestly you could not do better. She was attentive to the cats and helped us out by not only bringing in our washing after rain as requested but also folding it which was really going the extra mile. Sue was thoughtful and communicative, sending us photos of the cats and letting us know about parcels arriving. The house was a delight to come home to. A wonderful Housesitter and a great experience! Thoroughly recommended. You really could not do better.
 
TESSA (Leura NSW, Jul 2020 - 1 week 2 days)
Sue was absolutely wonderful. From the initial meet to our return home, we felt that Sunny was in very capable hands. We returned to find a happy dog and super clean house. Sue is very thoughtful and considerate leaving everything ready for our return. She is great at keeping in touch and was extremely trustworthy and reliable. We were very lucky to have Sue house-sit and care for our dog. Thank you!!
 
SANDRA (Russell Lea NSW, Jan 2020 - 1 week)
Sue looked after our home and our 2 much loved cocker Spaniels for 4 weeks whilst we were overseas. Sue loved up our hounds which followed her around every minute. She managed to keep our garden beds and grass alive during the dreadful drought (Bore in the property) Sue baked us a lovely banana bread loaf for our arrival home. I would recommend Sue and have her back anytime.
 
SUZIE (Orange NSW, Dec 2019 - 4 weeks)
Sue was great and we really enjoyed spending time with her. Sue left the house and outside areas spotless. She kept in regular communication with us whilst we were away which was very much appreciated.
 
KAREN (Stanwell Park NSW, May 2019 - 3 weeks)
Sue was wonderful!!! Everything was cared for with respect and diligence, especially our much loved rescue cat, Annabel. I would not hesitate to ask Sue back again or recommend her to anyone, she is just amazing!
 
ANN (Springwood NSW, Apr 2019 - 1 month 2 weeks)
Sue was our first ever house sitter and she was great. She exercised our dog Betty everyday and took great care of her and ourhouse. We returned home to fresh milk, juice and a clean and tidy house. Sue was very easy to talk to and very flexible even staying an extra night when our flight was delayed. My husband and I were extremely happy with Sue as our house sitter.
 
DIANNE (Umina beach NSW, Mar 2019 - 1 week 6 days)
We had the pleasure of having Sue take care of Maya and our house for a week and we were extremely happy upon our return. She is a wonderful, caring lady and we would definitely highly recommend her for any housesit and welcome her back at any time.
 
CHARLENE (Castle Cove NSW, Jan 2019 - 1 week 1 day)
Sue looked after my two small elderly dogs for 10 days in 2019 and I found her extremely caring and loving with them. They adapted to her care immediately as she got to know them. The house was very clean and tidy when I returned and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their animals.
 
MARY (Candelo nsw 2550 NSW, Dec 2018 - 1 week 4 days)
Sue was great would have her back anytime. Jet and Stella loved Sue. The house was left immaculate and she was great to communicate with. Thanks Sue
