About
Hi, I am Shelly
I'm a mature ( 55 year old) female Social Worker, working part-time and looking for an alternative to renting in Sydney.
I love animals and have experience with them although they are not a pre-requisite. I see them as sentient beings with feelings like us.
I would take great care of your pets.
I am Australian, and come originally from South Africa.
I can appreciate the big decision of having someone you don't know staying in your home, and possibly taking care of your beloved pet. I am happy to send you pictures of your pet whilst you are away, knowing this is what I would want.
Please know I would give your home the respect and care it needs. I am very security conscious. I prefer for you to give me clear instructions as to what you do and don't want : this way we can both be happy. I would describe myself as a kind, considerate, quiet and decent human being. If I give you my word I do my utmost to keep it.
I have experience of 1.5 years in house-sitting, including taking care of overseas students. I am knowledgeable and respectful of certain dietary laws.
Here is what Debbie and Tania had to say about me:
"Shelly house-sat for me on at least 3 occasions amounting to over a year. She also took care of my overseas students. I felt safe knowing that a caring, responsible, dependable and respectful person was staying in my home. She took care of the home as I requested and was honest where finances were involved. I went away knowing my home was in the hands of someone I trusted which brought me peace of mind. I would not hesitate to recommend her" (Debbie)
"I am very pleased to recommend Shelly as an honest, reliable, accountable and considerate house sitter and house mate. Shelly has always treated my home with respect and care, and diligently kept the home clean and neat at all times. I have always found her to be considerate of my privacy, discreet, and ever helpful in an unimposing way. Shelly’s genuine warm and friendly disposition makes her an ideal person to share a home with, and I would highly recommend her as a great house sitter or a housemate" (Tania) I am happy to give you the contact details and full references of both.
I have a police check.
Lets chat and meet and see if we can make this work.
Best wishes
Shelly.
