Hello! My name is Jane and I'm a non-smoking, retired educator and parent of three adult children who has experience with cats, dogs, sheep, goats, cattle, horses, poultry, fish, guinea pigs, reptiles and aviary birds.
For most of my life I have lived in rural and remote locations in Queensland and New South Wales, Australia while rearing and teaching my children via distance education to university entrance level. During these years I also helped to caretake small farms. I also have a strong interest in native animals and have cared for injured/orphaned creatures.
Now that my three children have grown up and I am based in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, I am looking forward to travelling and indulging in my love of reading, writing, sketching, painting and nature photography. I'm currently working on a major writing project and enjoy the solitary time away in interesting locations. I also try to stay fit by regularly bushwalking and gardening.
I look forward to experiencing the diversity of housesitting opportunities in Australia and abroad and can assure you that I will take the job seriously. Please feel free to contact me with questions.
Jane
