As you review the personal & work skills described below, you can be assured that I will care for & respect your home, pets, possessions & gardens, in the way you would like it done. Listed referees will confirm my suitability, along with a police clearance.
I love living in my own Brisbane house. My adult daughter, her partner & my grand dog live upstairs. But I also love travelling in a converted Hiace van, experiencing & learning about other places. I'm good with people: friendly, reliable, mature, capable, fit & healthy.

Jan was a great house sitter and looked after our Chloe like she owned her. Jan’s communication with us was excellent and our house was lovely and clean and shiny when we returned. We would highly recommend Jan to anyone who has a cat (or any pet) to be loved and a house to be looked after while they are away.

Thank you Jan, & we could not wish for a nicer, more caring, happy person to have staying in our home. Everything you did for us in looking after Daisy, the house & the garden was so very much appreciated. We were so fortunate you responded to us & we look forward to one more house sit, before you return to Brisbane.

Jan was amazing, warm and lovely. Communication was clear and she replied promptly to any messages we sent. Our Border Collie had a great time with Jan and the daily walks and our home was super clean on our return. Thank you so much for your time staying at our place :)
