65, NDIS Support Worker; JP (Qld)

61, Music/Art Therapy; NDIS Support Worker

PLEASE NOTE: We're in Roma, Sth. Central Queensland.

Christine & I sold our home in Gisborne, Vic in Nov '16. We traveled in 2017/18 in a large 34ft 5th wheel with George our cat (now deceased). We've housesat at a number of homes all with other animals.

Due to a tug vehicle breakdown in late 2018 we ended up in Roma, Qld., where we've been ever since.

We're both originally from the UK (Northern Ireland & Scotland) & we also lived for 18 years in Greater Vancouver, Canada b4 calling Australia home 21 years ago.

I've been a Tradie, Electrical & Electronic Engineer & Real Estate Valuer. I now work as an NDIS Support Worker with various clients. I'm also a Justice of the Peace (JP) in Queensland.
Christine has been a music teacher, artist & a Music/Art Therapist. She also works thru the NDIS as a Support Worker.. We both have Blue Cards (Working with Children) & Yellow Cards (NDIS Worker Clearance). These cards also require National Police Checks.

We have thoroughly enjoyed House Sitting from Victoria to the Atherton Tablelands in Northern Queensland: Sometimes in large properties & sometimes in small properties, some with many animals, some a few!

Our Calendar is blocked out for the rest of the year, we're working pretty much full time. However, if you think we'd be a match for your needs in Queensland only, please contact us.
Cheers, Lindsay.

This was our first experience bringing house sitters into our home and we couldn't have asked for better house sitters. Lindsay and Christine's attention to detail, care for our home, animals and garden, regular updates and communication was amazing. We have had lots of neighbours commenting on Lindsay and Christine's friendliness and often seeing them walking along the street with our dogs as we requested. 100% recommend these guys, and we hope they will come back again on a future trip!

Thanks guys - what a positive experience all round. Kind regards Lindsay and Christine
Lindsay and Christine were great house sitters. The fur babies and the house were very well looked after.

No rating Lindsay & Christine looked after my property well and especially my 3 dogs. I came home to a very neat house and 3 extremely happy dogs, they dropped me down to Cairns to catch my plane and also came and picked me up. Very realiable

Thanks Pam.
Lindsay & Christine were wonderful. I'm glad they decided to stay and look after our properties and animals. It would have been great if they could have stayed a bit longer whilst we were there as well. I would highly recommend and trust this couple and their feline friend.

Thanks Grant. Had a great time in Laidley...
We were fortunate to have Lindsay and Christine stay at our house for five weeks. They looked after our two precious dogs, chooks and also worked hard to make sure our cattle and sheep had water and fodder. They were very friendly and we felt very comfortable leaving our home and animals in their care. We felt at ease knowing they were there at home while we were away. Thank you Lindsay and Christine, xo
 
PATRICIA & ARTHUR (Coonabarabran NSW, Apr 2018 - 1 month 1 week)
Loved the time on ur farm & Thanks
Lindsay and Christine came to our home in Mudgee for 5 weeks. They looked after our fur babies and our house, on our return the house was cleaner than when we left. One of our dogs had an minor injury which they had to attend the vets for which we were very appreciative. I could not recommend them highly enough for any future house sits and would have them back again.

Thanks Neil. Glad Indie's better.
No rating Lindsay and Christine are fabulous house sitters. They looked after our house and fur/feathered family beautifully. We have a large fur family so we really appreciated their hard work. Just before our holiday we took in an emergency foster care cat and her kittens -this was no drama for them and they looked after them also. Lindsay kindly completed some handy man work we needed which was just fantastic as it can be hard to find someone with these skills in our town. On our return home we were ... MORE

Thanks Rebecca for ur kind words.
No rating A beautiful couple. So lovely to leave our property and pets in the caring hands of Christine and Lindsay. They went above and beyond to care for all the animals and the property was perfect on our return. We were spoilt with Fresh flowers and some thoughtful gifts. A lovely touch. We would highly recommend Christine and Lindsay for any property house sit. We sure hope they return here. Thank you.
