We house-sat for 12 months during 2007 in the beautiful English Peak District - we made many friends and are still in touch with the house owners. Have since done a few other short-term house-sits.
About us: married for 28 years, we own our home in Brighton, Queensland - our third in this area. We are both animal lovers - and have two gorgeous little dogs and have previously had cats, guinea pigs, hens, fish and birds.
Mick is a qualified tradesperson and enjoys gardening - he is very competent with minor maintenance and repairs - Ruth is more than happy to take care of the indoor household chores and animals. We are also used to caring for a swimming pool and spa.
We are both active and in good health - we enjoy travelling and new experiences, are independent, self-sufficient and happy to be located in either isolated country or busy city.
We would love the opportunity to care for your home and pets while you are away.
