My name is Jo-Ann from Sunny Queensland in Australia! :) I am a 48 yr old interior decorator with a passion for homes of every shape and size. I have spent twenty years creating, maintaining and managing large display home villages, so as you can imagine I will keep your home immaculate always. My intelligent and sensitive 12 year old son Logan has aspergers and is home schooled plus my lovely 24 year old daughter Samantha is studying by correspondence and has a deep desire to travel and experience other cultures and lifestyles. We have seen quite a bit of this wonderful world, one of our last OS adventure a few years ago found us teaching english to children in central western China, we were the only white people in the population of one mill plus we only knew three words in mandarin. :) We love a challenge! Sam is an experienced animal groomer and loves all creatures great and small... so all or ANY pets will truly be loved and pampered. We are not afraid of hard work at all so are keen to do any necessary maintenance/gardening or monitoring/paperwork the individual property may require. Our preferred sit length is one to three month's but as with all conditions we are happy to discuss and negotiate to find the perfect arrangement for your particular situation. We have done over 30 extended house-sits for big and small homes, many families ask us to return the following year which we do with pleasure! Most homes required pool plus yard maintenance. One property is over two acres and has all types of gorgeous farm animals to care for. We are very proud of our work and personal reputations and have glowing references from landlords and homeowners. Due to the personal contact details contained within these? rather than upload I can forward them to you personally if you feel we are compatible. Integrity, honesty and family are extremely important to us. So is laughing everyday. We look forward to hearing from you soon to discuss your requirements a to answer any questions you may have about us! Also more than happy to chat face to face... On Internet/ if you would prefer? Warm Regards, Jo and Sam :)
