Hi There Home Owners, (September 2024).
Graham & Jillian, based in Gladstone Central Qld, are baby boomer generation, like to travel in Australia, sober, clean and tidy, relatively fit not afraid to get our hands dirty to get the job done. Responsible and caring for your home and pets.
We have been house sitters, pet minders, garden waterers, pot plant minders around Gladstone QLD, as well as interstate sits, farm sitters, and have enjoyed this life style.
We are keen gardeners in a semi tropical environment so are famiiar with pruning, mulching, fertilising, re potting plants, striking cuttings etc.
Also experienced with caring for large dogs, Alsations, special needs older dogs with medication needs, and sundry felines such as Rag Doll and Burmese cats. We have also minded horses, carpet snakes as well as an avery of finches and cockateils and a yard of chickens.
We have done a 3 month house sitting trip around Tasmania January to April 2024, all places from Launceston to Geeveston. Had a really great time with both animals and a farm sit at Geeveston.
On our last sit, a minor exit / bond clean was performed in high traffic areas, as well as sundry weeding in a native garden, lawns mowed on exit.
Both of us are NON SMOKERS.
