More information about this house sitter

Hello Lovely People ,
Garry and I are so grateful to have had opportunities to look after homes with furry, feathered or finned precious ones in it. It is when we look after your home and pets that we feel we become their loving replacement family.
As a couple who are Empty Nesters' we now have the flexibility to house / Bub sit on occasions.
When we house sit we prefer homes with fur / feathered babes in it as this in our opinion makes a home complete and makes us completely happy.
Why ? Well I think we are still heartbroken from losing our dear lab / retriever Pumpkin on Christmas Day a few years ago as well as a dear feline Chips after that. To mend our hearts these days we lovingly look after other people's babes knowing that there is ' No place like home' for your dear ones when you have to go away or need a well deserved holiday.
I, Annette, am a RSPCA POOPS (Pets Of Older People ) trained pet carer and have been a volunteer with the local pound in Wodonga . I must warn you though, if you take Garry and I on, your babes will be spoilt with cuddles, walkies, talkies and so much affection that they may not remember you until you come back!
We will also keep your home tidy and running safely and efficiently . Garry is so good at all things that involve house maintenance as he built our Hebel brick home and a great deal of the furniture . Garry loves gardening of all sorts and I also find it therapeutic.
We are both very healthy, fit and non smoking individuals. Garry loves to play golf, tennis and anything that is sporty. I love to dance , jog and lovingly connect with all animals .
If you think we resonate with you as potential house/ pet sitters please contact us - I can guarantee that you will not be disappointed .
Please read our recent references on our page in ' endorsements' section .
Please note that we have not house sat since the Covid epidemic and that the photos you see are pre Covid . We haven't changed that much apart from longer and or greyer hair.
NB . We are available July onwards to sit in the Gold Coast / NSW border area .
Thank-you for reading about us and for now enjoy your journey with love .
Annette and Garry
P.S . We do not bring any pets with us we only look after yours.
Extra references from another house sitting site :
Annette & Gary looked after our house, garden and 3 large dogs for the above period ( August 2017) whilst Adrian and I had an overseas holiday. They were very reassuring on our departure that everything would be fine and indeed it was! Annette was a great communicator and every week sent us photos of the dogs and messages. We had a stress free holiday and Gary kindly picked us up from the airport. The house was tidy and clean and dogs healthy and happy. I was very impressed that Gary had managed to keep the garden looking so well considering high temperatures and no rain, great work! I would highly recommend Annette and Gary and cannot give them a more glowing report. THANK YOU

Annette and Garry were more than we could have wished for. Our two dogs were so well taken care of, we are not sure they missed us. Our puppies Tate and Leia were spoilt and well exercised and were very content. Annette was so accommodating and even when we changed some dates was willing to fit in with our hectic schedule. The house was really well looked after and left the same, if not better than when we departed. Annette and Garry have sat for us on multiple occasions and we can't recommend them enough to anybody who is looking for a trustworthy, kind and puppy loving couple who not only take care of your pets to the highest level but also take our your home as if it was their own. ( November - December 2017)
