About Tracey & Bill
We are a mature aged married couple from Cairns, Far North Queensland, Australia. We are avid travellers and have made a decision on a whim to stop working and to start to enjoy life and try new experiences and meet new people through travel.

We are a mature aged married couple from Cairns, Far North Queensland, Australia. We are avid travellers and have made a decision on a whim to stop working and to start to enjoy life and try new experiences and meet new people through travel.
We have both recently received our National Criminal History Check (all clear!!) here in Australia and can provide copies on request.
Why we want to house sit
Our home is on 1.5 acres and has more than 20 fruit trees such as mango, lemon, orange, rambutans. We have owned cats and dogs all our lives from a small Jack Russell, Collie, Silky and Maltese terriers to a large German Shepherd. We have travelled throughout Europe as tourists which only allows a limited time in any location. We would like to spend more time off the usual tourist track locations and to learn and enjoy differing cultures and foods.
Our experience
Our experiences during our working life have primarily been local government and project management. We have lived in indigenous areas from the top of Australia on a island called Thursday Island to the bottom of Australia in Tasmania in a remote location on the west coast called Zeehan.
We have home maintenance experience in gardens, pools as well as all things household.
We are intending travelling for at least 12 months from Australia and will be happy with short or long term for pets and home sitting.

I’ve known Bill and Tracey for about 5 years, having met through Bill’s position as a senior manager in Local Government for whom I was a contractor. Since then, we have spent time together and now know each other well professionally and socially. We’ve spent time in each other’s homes – theirs is always immaculate and presented with great care. They are experienced and energetic travellers who are respectful of and sensitive to the needs of others.
They are both animal lovers who have been a great hit with my dogs. They have experience of owning and caring for pets, livestock, homes, gardens and larger properties. I have no hesitation in recommending them as warm, friendly and responsible people with a genuine curiosity about and affection for the world around them and the people they meet while exploring it.- Organised

Tracey has minded my Staffy X on several occasions and provided good care catering for the special needs of a pampered pooch. I found her to be reliable, trustworthy and diligent and have no hesitation in recommending her services for this important caring role.
