Honest, reliable, gentle, loving carer since 2010

late 60's, Retired

OFFERING YOU TOTAL PEACE OF MIND ...
Entrusting your precious home, gardens and beloved pets to others can create some anxiety.

I fully understand.
Please allow me to assist ...

Devoted animal lover, special affinity with dogs ... all sizes, ages, needs.

Have nurtured a variety of pets and farm animals on prior assignments ... dogs, cats, guinea pigs, birds, fish, hens and chickens, ducks, sheep and new born lambs, cattle and poddy calves, piglets ... and some friendly wildlife including possums, kookaburras, koalas, wallabies, parrots, lizards.

Responsible, loving and gentle companion for your beloved pet/s in their own environment.
Will maintain care, feeding, exercise and play routines per your instructions and preferences.

Have experience with caring for working dogs and keeping a watchful eye over agisted horses and livestock, water supplies and fencing.

Healthy, active single female in late 60's.
Love relaxed daily dog walks, lawn mowing, gardening, tending potted plants etc.
Meticulously clean and tidy, very security conscious.

Have owned several of my own homes, will respect your major investment and treat it with utmost care, as if my own.
Totally respectful of your privacy, belongings and your neighbours.

Reliable with mail, messages, errands, bins out/in promptly.
Care of pot plants, gardens, lawns, pool, garaged vehicles per your instructions.

I'm very conservative with utilities and take care not to waste power, water, gas.

Trustworthy, detail-minded person, can also provide dependable, discreet handling of personal/business matters (deliveries, processing mail, phone calls, paying bills etc.) on your behalf, if required.

Working career includes school teaching, reception and administration in various industries - accountancy, legal and health practices, PA to business executives in advertising/marketing.

Have also managed several of my own and partnership small businesses ... advertising co-ordination services, health and fitness centre, natural health care clinic and education/training centre.

Resourceful, intelligent problem solver.
Any unforeseen issues in your absence will be handled competently and responsibly.

Friendly, quiet living "homebody" (days and evenings) ... I don't smoke or play loud music. Sober habits.
Flexible, cheerful, positive person.

Travel with my own computer, mobile broadband, printer etc. (just need good wireless internet signal/reception).

Excellent references ... some written (can be provided on request) and a list of home/pet owners who are very happy to receive your call to share their experience of having me caretake their properties and pet family members.

National Police Check Certificate available (on request).

Regularly invited for repeat home/pet/garden/pool/small farm sit assignments and recommended to friends/family by hosts.

My own last 4-legged darling boy, Neo ... an RSPCA rescue kelpie x border collie crossed the Rainbow Bridge in early 2023 ... despite the cruel and tortured start to his life, I was blessed with his love, devotion, and companionship for just over 17 years. Still miss him terribly ... and have lots of love to give to your pets whilst you are away from home.

Have my own car.
Currently saving to acquire a modest "home on wheels", so that I can explore more of our wonderful country, in between selected assignments ... and adopt another rescue kelpie to share my travel adventures.

Looking forward to hearing from you and discussing your requirements and preferences ... clean, non-smoking homes only please.

DATES CURRENTLY AVAILABLE:
(may vary slightly, pending travel requirements)

Unless anyone's plans change, my next available dates are after 30 June 2025

Chris was exceptional, went above and beyond. The house was immaculate when we returned home. She even left me a lovely bunch of Roses in a vase on our dining room table. The scent was beautiful. Rusty seemed very happy and content. Sent regular updates and photos of him over the two week period. Cannot thank Chris enough for looking after our little boy Rusty. We highly recommend Chris to anyone they will not be disappointed. We would love her again in April if she can accommodate us. ... MORE
 
JILL (Coombabah QLD, Oct 2024 - 2 weeks 1 night)
Many thanks for your kind words, Jill. Will be in touch again, soon, re April.
We are so grateful to Chris Wilson looking after our home and our dog Archie for 15 days during October 2024. It was our first time using Aussie House Sitters so I was somewhat nervous, but Chris was very communicative and professional, I trusted her just through our first phone call. When we arrived home after she had housesat, I swear my house cleaner than when we left it. Chris is trustworthy, reliable and most importantly communicative. She watered our plants and always ensured ... MORE
 
BONNIE (Upper Coomera QLD, Oct 2024 - 2 weeks 1 night)
Bonnie and Nick ... thankyou so much for your kind words, and I'm glad you were happy. Best wishes to you both and Archie.
Chris looked after our house for just over 2 weeks while we went away. She was so diligent in ensuring all our animals were safe and comfortable. She communicated well to us and we had the best holiday knowing we could whole heartedly trust Chris with our home and our farm. Chris watered all our plants and vege patch, kept an eye out for our cattle and spoilt our dogs. We highly recommend Chris. What a beautiful human being! We would definitely engage her on any of our future holidays.
 
JENNY (Telegraph Point NSW, Sep 2024 - 2 weeks 3 nights)
Thankyou so much for your kind words, Jen. I would absolutely love to return to your little piece of paradise and hang out again with all your beautiful animals!
