Will look after like it's mine

62, retired

I am a recently retired responsible person keen to find a house/unit sitting job in the northern suburbs of Melbourne (close to family) other options also certainly considered.
I have had experience in renovating houses and a keen gardener. I was raised on wheat and sheep farm in the Mallee, therefore have experience in caring for animals.
I live in Mildura.
I am a responsible trustworthy, caring person and respect the property of others.
I have family who live in Melb and am keen to be around them from time to time so more than happy to meet with potential sits/people who may have a vacancy.
I am a non smoker
Please give me a call anytime.

No rating Ted and Barb from MIldura proved to be conscientious house/doggy sitters. My animals/house and garden did not miss us at all! I recommend them to you as a retired couple they are able to be around most of the time so your fur babies will not fret.

We couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters. They sent regular updates and looked after our place like it was their own. We got back, jetlagged, to an immaculate house and a tired dog who'd been run around and was much fitter than when we left. Thank you, Ted and Barb!

We were really lucky to have Ted look after our house while we were away. He is a really nice guy and a great communicator. Highly recommended!

This was the third time Ted looked after our place and, again, he didn't disappoint. On our return the house was spotless, our garden healthy & our chooks happy. Ted kindly left treats for us & he even fixed our wonky toilet door! I have no hesitation recommending him for other house-sits.

This was Ted's 2nd house-sit for us and, again, we were very happy to find our house and garden had been well looked after. Ted had even fashioned a clever cover for our vegie patch to protect our plants during some fierce 40+ degree days while we were away. We'll no doubt be hoping Ted will be available to sit for us again in future!

No rating We were delighted with the state of the house, garden & the health & well-being of the dog after returning home after 5 weeks. Ted had left the house immaculate, even fixing taps, light & blinds, and had walked the dog regularly (managed her vexing skin condition capably & conscientiously), and watered & weeded the garden. Ted was friendly, easy to get on with, affable, reliable, trustworthy, co-ordinated well with neighbours, even minded an extra dog when asked, and was an excellent house & ... MORE

No rating Ted looked after our house from 16th to 28th jan 2018 and we were delighted to return to a beautifully clean house, happy chooks and a thriving garden even though there'd been some very hot weather while we were away. Ted also left us some milk in the fridge and a bottle of wine. How thoughtful! He's a really nice person and we highly recommend him. Ted is definitely going to be first on our list next time we need a house-sitter!
