About

I am a retired single male, age 67. Healthy, don't smoke or drink. Had a lot of contact with animals, enjoy the countryside and good at fixing things, can put up with the city for short periods ;)

I always had domesticated and other animals around me, at least two dogs at any specific time - Fox Terriers, Rottweiler and some others of which I am not too sure about the breed. At some stage we had a cat or two. My late wife grew up on a South African sheep farm so we always kept a few sheep - with names I might add - not for eating! The result was that a small flock of sheep always featured in my life. I helped nursing the sick ones and often bit the dust when I had to catch one of them. The ram occasionally caught me unawares and I would receive a head-butt...or two. We also kept chickens.

I love to be in nature and have extensively travelled the African wilderness. My hobby is Amateur Radio and the communication part of the hobby comes in very handy. My profession was also in Radio plus industrial electronics.

I migrated to Australia to be closer to my two daughters and two grand kids in Melbourne. My son lives in Canada.

House sitting fits in perfectly with my new independent lifestyle. I agree with the statement that housesitting is a win win situation for both parties involved. I can assure you that your pets and othervanimals will be in good hands and your house kept to a high standard, treated with great respect.
