Animal Loving, Clean, Quiet, Responsible.

44, Self Employed

Hello,

Thanks for choosing to read my profile.

I've been on a grand adventure exploring this great big chunk of earth in my camper-van for the last 7 years. I've sold my van and settled near Murwillumbah. However the wanderlust has not left me and I am prepared and looking forward to travelling to look after your home and pets.

I'm fortunate enough to be able to work 'from home' whilst travelling, and require phone and internet reception to work so am unavailable to help people with no mobile reception unless there is wifi available.

About me: Mature, clean, tidy and well organised, responsible, energetic, conscientious and friendly.

Animal care: From pampered fur babies to semi-working dogs, a horny cockatoo, lots of chickens, Reptiles - a python and 2 monitors, goats, bunnies, guinea pigs galore, and the cats, well they usually end up wrapping me around their little paws and minding me and being my little overlords. I now have ducks to add to the menagerie.
I have a soft spot for anxious high maintenance dogs, having been the lucky person belonging to an odd little traumatised rescue dog for the last 12 years, who is no longer with me. So I'm happy to help if you have high maintenance and/or anxious sensitive pets. I seem to have a way with them.
I'm very reliable at administering medications also.
I would love to learn about horses and other farm animals but only have experience with goats.

Experienced in house-minding, simple garden maintenance - easy care to remote off grid wild bush properties. I have a couple of apps that make me an internet expert on pot plants.

My references will attest that home is always a little nicer, a little cleaner and well taken care of. I aim to please. Who doesn't love a good report! ;)
I'm conscientious about putting things where I found them, so you won't be searching for your things when you come home.

Although I enjoy travelling I'm also a homebody who's happy to be at home with your pets or if they're adventurous, just as happy to take them to the places they love and maybe some discover new ones.

I completely understand how hard it can be for some people to leave their beloved pets in the care of someone else, I wish to assure anyone having this struggle, they won't find a better companion than me whilst you're away. Every pet is different and will be cared for accordingly. I'm happy to send regular updates or completely leave you alone which ever you prefer.

References available. Pet First Aid and Pet CPR certificate available. Happy to give a copy of ID for insurance purposes. Recent police check also available.

Any questions please feel free to ask.

No rating Sharneen is a top quality house sitter, and we have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her to other home owners. She sat for us for a period of one month (Jan, 2017), during which time she cared for our large family home and two pussy cats as if they were her own. From the point of first contact, Sharneen was always professional, reliable, and prompt in responding. Upon meeting her, we found her to be delightful, respectful, and friendly, with a high degree of sensitivity to what we may ... MORE

Sharneen was an enormous help for me at the eleventh hour. I’m currently fostering a beautiful doggie who’s just been rescued and who needs a lot of tender loving care. Sharneen is amazing with animals, knows how to approach anxious dogs and read their cues. I felt very comfortable leave this tender little doggie in her care. Her communication was excellent throughout and she kept me informed with photos. Would have her help me again with my animals in a heartbeat. Thanks so much.

Sharneen is incredible. I could not have asked for a greater sitter to look after my home and two babies. (Rottweiler) The care she gives to you beloved pets is extraordinary. Keeping in contact with updates on how they are doing. I was gone for 5 weeks and did not worry one day about my doggies or house. I will surely be asking her to come sit for me again if I go away. Thank you so much.

Sharneen was great; the dogs warmed to her immediately and she looked after them superbly; they were in perfect condition when we got home. The house was beautifully clean and everything was in its right place - the first time we have experienced that; usually, after returning home, some items are found in strange places, but not this time. The pot plants and garden were well looked after and regularly watered, and her regular text message reports and photos, although not expected, were ... MORE

Sharneen was excellent ! She took great care of our little shitzu cross, and our home . We were kept well- informed throughout her 3-week stay , with frequent messages and photos . We were particular about certain procedures which she followed as requested. We would not hesitate to have Sharneen housesit for us in future.
 
PEARL (Carindale QLD, May 2024 - 3 weeks)
Sharneen looked after our rather large crew of animals and plants for three weeks and did a wonderful job. Sharneen obviously cares about the animals around her and went above and beyond, administering medication, grooming and cuddling to ensure our crew stayed happy and content. Sharneen also kept us updated while we were o/s and included photos. We came home to a spotless house which is always a bonus. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sharneen to anyone looking for a sitter who ... MORE
