About
Hello,
My name is Grant Mills. I am a 43 year old single male.
I am a Sales Manager of a Brisbane based company which manufactures and installs Security Screening solutions.
I have previously owned homes and an investment property whilst living in Cairns for 11 years.
3 years ago, after my divorce and separation, I decided to move down to Brisbane to restart my life, and for first 12 months rented an apartment in Shailer Park. 12 months later, as the owner decided to move back in, I then moved to another apartment in the Gold Coast. 12 months later, once again the owner decided to move back in, therefor I was required to move out again. I then relocated from a unit into a house, of which the 12 month lease is up as of the end of January 2018, and due to the owners selling the property, I have decided not to renew my lease. As I am tired of packing and moving my whole house every year I have put all of my belongings into long term storage in Brisbane, which i have access to 24 hours a day if need be.
I have decided that I would like to become a Full Time Professional House Sitter, which will enable me to save money faster to establish a deposit so that i can get back into the property market and buy a house that I can call my own.
I am an honest, trustworthy, reliable, respectful, professional individual who has always taken pride in the places I have owned and lived. I am a very organised person and take pride in my appearance. I respect other peoples belongings/places and can assure you that I would be a very suitable candidate for your House Sitting requirements.
I have no criminal record. I do not smoke, drink or do drugs.
I am an animal/pet lover and can certainly be trusted to take care of your place and animals while you are away.
I also enjoy gardening and yard maintenance. I have owned properties with pools, and understand the maintenance required with them. I have been in the building industry for the majority of my working life, and am very capable of dealing with most home maintenance duties should they be required.
I do hope that you will consider me for your House Sitting requirements and can be contacted at any time should you have any questions, or to arrange an interview.
HOUSE SITTING EXPERIENCE
This will be a new experience for me. It is something that I am committed to doing as a Full Time venture. I look forward to building trusting relationships with clients, and can assure you that you will put me top of your list the next time you choose to go away.
PET CARE EXPERIENCE
Dogs
Have owned 2 dogs in my life. First was a border collie which i had since a pup, died of old age 13 years later. My 2nd dog was a Rottweiller which was abandoned as a pup....i had him for 15 years until the day i came home and found him paralysed from the waist down and had to make the awful decision to put him down.
I have not had a dog since then due to being in rental properties that dont allow pets. I would love to have the company of another dog, even if just for short periods of time.
Cats
Have had 2 cats in my life and am very good with them.
Fish
Have had many fish and different fish and tanks in my life and know the important things about taking care of them.
Birds
Have only had budgies. 5 over the course of 15 years.
Rabbits
Never had rabbits, but am willing to take care of if required.
Guinea Pigs
Never had guinea pigs, but willing to take care of if required.
Reptiles
Never had reptiles. Not a big fan of snakes and lizards. I don't think I would physically be able to handle them if required.
Horses
Never had horses, but willing to take care of if required. Would definitely need a 'To Do' list for them.
Chickens
Have had dozens of chickens . Had acreage in Cairns and built my chooks the Taj Mahal of chook pens!
