Gill - Reliable, kind and respectful Reviews

5 Rating 9 Reviews

Hi,
I am a trustworthy and reliable person knocking on the door of 60. I have a full time job, based in Brisbane, however I work from home 2-3 days a week, so I will be able to spend a lot of time in the home keeping your animals company and sending you regular updates.
As I have used Mindahome on many previous occasions due to my extensive travels, and relied on the wonderful help from past housesitters, I know how important it is to have a commonsense, committed housesitter who is a great communicator, who you can trust with your precious animals. I am accustomed to dogs of all sizes, including giant breeds. I have had experience running marine tanks, and am happy to look after cats.
I love to explore all sorts of different places and environments and would love to spend time with your animals giving them plenty of love and attention.
I am very much a homebody, friendly, quiet, respectful and discreet. I am a voracious reader and like to keep a clean and tidy environment around me.
My hobbies are photography and making photo books of my trips. My happy place is the kitchen, I teach sourdough bread making, so you may come home to a few surprises if you will permit it!
I am accustomed to life on acreage, dealing with veggie patches, pumps and treatment plants, but enjoy city living too!
I have a Working with Children card (which includes a police check among others) - so you can be sure I have been well vetted. I am very happy to meet online or by phone for an initial chat. Further references available on request.

“I had Gillian come and look after my home and two pets, a Maltese dog and a Moggie cat while I went on a cruise. She came to visit us a couple of times before my holiday arrived, which was a great idea to build a bond. While I was away Gillian did a fabulous job, my house was left clean, tidy and my animals were very very happy. She even had a load of washing on before my return. I would thoroughly recommend Gillian as a house/animal sitter, she is reliable, honest and a lovely lady. Thank you so much Gillian. Its lovely to have someone like you to look after my home and pets and know they will be well looked after. Gillian would be the first person I would ask to sit again in the future.”

“Cyclone Alfred put paid to my planned trip away . Gillian communicated with me before her planned sit and through the whole debacle. With no planes flying, I had to cancel . Fortunately for my girl and I , we have been able to reschedule with Gillian for later in the year .”

“Gill was a fantastic house sitter and most importantly, our 2 pups absolutely adored her! Her experience showed from beginning to end along with her great communication where we received regular photo and text updates on how well the pups were doing. We felt completely relaxed knowing our home and pets were in great hands!! And to top it all off, Gill made us a lovely curry and salad to come home to along with sourdough bread made from scratch!! We truly can't recommend Gill highly enough and would not hesitate to invite her back. Thanks, Tracie & Marc Ashton”

“What can I say about Gillian, From the day a met Gillian I know she was the right person to take care of my fur & feathers babies and my house. She kept me posted on how my babies were going. I came home to a cooked meal and freshly baked bread and I came home to all the bedding washed and house cleaned. I highly recommend Gillian to take care of your fur babies. Thank you Gillian for looking after my babies so I could have a lovely time away in Adelaide.”
