We are a mature couple, trustworthy, reliable and non smokers. Having lived in both the city and country we have a diverse range of experience to enable us to care for your property and animals.
Julie grew up in the city and we now live in a rural residential estate in country NSW. Julie's work at the local Primary school sees her caring for special needs children. Alan grew up in the country and is very familiar with many different types of animals. For work he is responsible for the management of a large portfolio of residential and rural properties across Australia.
Our first housesit was in April 2016 over in Geraldton Western Australia which was in a family home for 2 weeks caring for their 2 dogs, cat, home and yard (my hubby couldn't help himself ..he loves to mow!)
We found this to be a wonderful experience that offered us a break from our camping.
Our second house sit was at the beautiful seaside suburb of Elliot Heads just out of Bundaburg and we were lucky enough to have the whole of January there caring for their two beautiful dogs, their home and their garden, which was quite a challenge as we recorded some of the hottest back to back days where even the locals were suffering.Fortunately for us there was a great pool where we spent a good deal of our time.
Our last housesit was in April 2017 and we had yet another coastal destination in the township of Mackay. Here we cared for their human like kitty cat,who at times could be quite the escape artist,their home and very well established garden and grounds which also included a pool for us to enjoy and care for.The bird life and possums that visited were a result of the loving care the owners gave to these animals and we ensured we maintained the regular feeding program the wildlife were used to receiving.
On all occasions I believe all parties have been extremely happy. For us the houses have been as presented and for our home owners they have gone away and returned relaxed in the knowledge that their beloved pets were content and their homes are as they have left them.
Our adult daughter (also a housesitter) has accompanied us on our last 2 house sits and we have all been fortunate to have meet and made some lovely friendships with the owners of the homes and pets we have cared for.
Julie & Alan
