Gypsy mama ♥️

57, Business Owner

Hi, I'm Donna - I am honest, tidy, easy-going, non-smoker with a 'can-do' attitude who will treat your home, belongings and pets as if they were my own!

I have had the opportunity to do many housesits - both through this and another site, as well as through private recommendations.

I completely understand - to be relaxed during your time away you need to know that everything is being well looked after back home. I am happy to provide regular photo/video updates, so that you get that stress-free time away when needed.

If we are unable to meet face to face prior to the housesit, I am more than happy to do a facetime or zoom call so that we all get the opportunity to ensure we are the right fit for each other.

From a professional perspective, I now work from home, so I can provide lots of time and attention to your fur/feather-babies.

I like to keep fit, so no problem taking your dogs for walks and play time on the beach, dog parks or walking tracks. I'm very confident with large dogs; and am willing to assist with special requirements such as the need for medication your pets may need.

Prior to my current career I worked extensively in education - everything from classroom teaching, Life Education, preschools, swimming instructor, Youth Ambassador for World Vision, Tutor for Ronald McDonald Foundation, Link To Life Facilitator for The Smith Family; in every type of classroom imaginable, as well as the homes of seriously ill children.

I have held a number management positions in the social welfare field; as well as volunteering for many community organisations.

I've been a solo mama to 4 fantastic boys for a long time & now I'm basically an empty-nester (where did that time go???) ... although they do come back now & then LOL. Having come from a very large extended family, we are very family oriented.

Currently living in Coffs Harbour, NSW, I'm open to do many more housesits now that I have more freedom to do so. I also love to treat my mum to mini-breaks/holidays when I can, so sometimes she comes along with me as well (if OK with home owner of course!)

I am flexible time-wise, can housesit just for a weekend or an extended period of time :)

I have current Police and Working With Children Checks, and can provide a number of personal referees as required.

Thank you for the opportunity to take care of things for you :)
Looking forward to connecting with you,
Donna

Hi Donna was a great pet/house sitter. She is super friendly and communication was excellent both before and through her stay, if needed. We came home to a very clean house and two happy doggies. Thanks Donna :)

Thrilled Donna was available again to look Ned & Lex. Would highly recommend Donna in all aspects, care of the dogs, house, communication, everything. Than you SO much Therese
 
THERESE (Maclean NSW, Dec 2024 - 2 nights - 1 of 3 endorsements from this owner )
So grateful to have Donna again to look after Lex & Ned. She updates us & loves the dogs. Walkin to a spotless house & happy dogs makes the weekend escape even better

Donna was great with our beloved dogs & returned to two happy & content animals & a very clean & tidy house, even stripping the bed & washing the sheets. Highly recommend Donna & hope she is available for another sit if required.
 
THERESE (Maclean NSW, Oct 2024 - 1 week - 3 of 3 endorsements from this owner )
Our house and 2 fur babies were well looked after by Donna, she communicated with us whilst away and sent photos to put our mind at ease and left the house clean and tidy. Would recommend Donna and would happily have her back again to house and pet sit. Thanks again Donna

Donna did a great job of looking after our house and Dog, Bonnie. She is welcome back anytime.
 
HEATHER (Emerald Beach NSW, Mar 2024 - 4 weeks)
Many thanks to Donna for looking after our home and 3 chooks plus many wild birds that expect a daily feed. We would definitely recommend her as a house-sitters.
 
JOAN (New Beith QLD, Jul 2019 - 2 weeks 4 days)
No rating Donna had confirmed the house sit a long time before the start date. Three weeks before the sit she informed me that she could not do it.
