Semi-retired Australian cat-loving couple want to experience YOUR country!

About this sitter

We are active, healthy semi-retired (teacher and midwife) non-smokers. We are looking for almost ANYWHERE in the world - USA, Canada, New Zealand, Europe - France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece, UK/Nthn Ireland, Eire, etc etc for up to three months every year. Other European, Mediterranean, South American or Asian countries could be possible - please ask. And we LOVE cats - the more the better!

Why they want to house sit

We love to travel and live in other communities, getting to know the area and meeting new people. We also like to get away from the Australian summer for as long as possible, so anywhere cooler than Brisbane over the Southern Hemisphere summer would be considered! On the other hand, Scandinavian countries during YOUR summer are high on our wish list.

Their experience

We now have quite a few housesits under our belt, in UK, France, Japan and Australia, and house owners can be contacted for references. We have cared for dogs, cats and horses so far.

What can they bring to the assignment

We own our own home and several rental properties, so understand the need for homeowners to have their possessions well cared for. We have also run a farm with horses and cattle, sheep, goats and poultry, and of course the usual long list of family pets - cats, dogs, rabbits, etc. We can undertake basic maintenance and gardening.  I am comfortable and experienced with giving medications and injections. Cats and dogs will be spoilt rotten!
