Single48, Nutritionist, Lecturer, Writer
I'm a professional person who decided 2023/24 was the time for a sea change. I've been in private practice and lecturing students in healthcare for many years and was ready to step off the 9-5 hamster wheel to initially devote time to my writing and publishing and I've now plunged into further study in the form of a PhD. I've done house-sitting in the past and absolutely loved it, so I have decided that this is the perfect time to adventure again. I prefer a quiet place, ideally close to nature or water, however, city/suburban is ok too as long as its q quiet spot, so I can have time to concentrate on the writing, study, and creative process. As much as I love the company of people, it is marvellous to have just the company of animals, or time alone, while I'm getting my thoughts together, so your pets become my new family while I'm with them, and your home will be in the very, very, best of care. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and have a cat and chickens at home (which are devotedly cared for by my son), so I'm used to always having animals around and waking early to let the chickens out to wander the backyard. I'll be on the property writing most of the time, so I'm very quiet, and your home will be looked after impeccably with the greatest of care and respect (see reviews). I'm also an avid gardener, ornamental and vegetable, so you can be sure your gardens and lawns will be perfectly cared for at all times. There's more I could say, but I'll leave it there and add I'm happy to answer any other questions you may have. Looking forward to meeting you, warmest regards, Karena
Awesome, amazing, the best person we could have hoped for, kind, thoughtful, courteous, friendly, responsible, reliable, honest, above expectations. Karena truly feels like one of our family and she comes with the highest of recommendations.
Karena looked after our lab 'MONTY' and home for over five weeks in Aug-Sept 2024. Karena is a wonderful caring house sitter, who took great care of our MONTY and home. She is an excellent communicator who always provided regular updates and photos to reassure us whilst away in the UK, especially during some wild storms that hit when we were away. Karena is a 'small footprint' sitter who maintains the home with little or no impact. We would be very pleased to have Karena back when the ... MORE
Karena is a kind and caring person. She took absolute care of our Harley/dog and our Home. She always stayed in contact and responded quickly. We are so thankful to have found someone as fantastic as Karena - we highly recommend her.
When returning home, the house was immaculate, Harley was happy and we were so comfortable with karena in our home. We hope that she is available to support us at another time and wish her all the best in her amazing future plans.
Karena was an excellent sitter. She looked after my cat Charlie beautifully and even sourced some new food for her when she had some eating issues.
Very caring, responsible and communicative, I came home to a spotless house and a happy cat.
Karena was the ideal sitter for us, she is conscientious and provides detailed updates when requested. Karena took great care of the house plants, veggie patches and even mowed the lawn manually on two occasions even though we had left money for sitters to use the services of our regular lawn guys. Most of all, Karena treated our home with respect and has left it spotlessly clean. Would not hesitate to recommend Karena to anybody looking to leave their home in very safe and caring hands.
I can't thank Karena enough. When I got home the place looked better than I left it! She cared for my big dog so well, took him out every day for a walk and swim, sent pictures and even bought him bones to chew on. Her communication was amazing. She mowed the lawns and took care of plants. I cant express my gratitude enough. Would have her back in a heart beat!
On aussiehousesitters, we were fortunate to locate Karena to look after our two large dogs and horse, as well as a considerable undercover plant collection, while we enjoyed our overseas holiday. Karena also kept us well informed including posting a cash card that "someone" forgot to take.
After six weeks, we returned home to an immaculate house and very spoilt animals.
We have no hesitation in recommending Karena to any house sit.
Karena is a great house sitter. She looked after our home and garden perfectly, and spoilt our (sometimes difficult) cat. Karena kept us updated while we were away with messages and cat photos, and was very easy to communicate with. She left the house spotlessly clean and even mowed the lawn! I would not hesitate to recommend Karena to friends and family.
With a house sitter looking after your pets, house and garden - you can really relax. Happy days.
