I grew up with a German Shepherd and as an adult, I had two cats. Meantime I own a flat with a garden. Hence I can comprehend the desire very well to know property and animals in good hands. And as I'm a responsible, trustworthy and honest person I'm well suited to fulfil this desire. In addition to that I'm experienced in house-/pet-sitting, because I did this already several times before: in my home town (Munich, two cats) and in NSW (Seaforth, two dogs and Narrabeen, two dogs). Some personal details: Fifty-one, non smoker, IT-Specialist. I possess a driver's licence and know Sydney and Northern Beaches quite well, what's advantageous, if a visit at the vet should be necessary. References have not been necessary so far, but let me know, if you need them. I will be back in Australia (SYD) for six weeks next summer and I'm already 'engaged' for the first few days, but I would be available for about three weeks in January. I'm looking forward to minding your pets/house/garden while you are on vacation (enjoy and relax - I'm taking care!).
