LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Hi Gary, I landed the dream job in Santa Fe, where I lived for 18
years. I'm so glad I placed my email broadcast ad with you. I
can’t believe the great response, and how this Santa Fe
offer was made just three days after your email broadcast was
sent out. What a fantastic service you offer! Best to you, J.W.
Santa Fe, NM

Thanks for the good news, Jill. Our email broadcast service is
a great way to get a quick response to your advertisement.
 
Please let me thank you again for suggesting that I publish my
phone number in my situations-wanted ad last year. My ad was very
limited but most surprisingly I received just the right phone
call that seems to be a go in June; we agreed to re-contact then.
All we need sometimes is one good connection and so thank you.
Sincerely, J.A. Boise, ID

Dear Juliana, we’re glad that your ad had a positive
response. We’re always willing to help any of our
advertisers. Many subscribers first email us a rough draft of
their ad for us to review. We then email back any revisions or
suggestions to them prior to publishing the final ad.

I have been a member of The Caretaker Gazette for a few years now
and have found this membership to be of great value. The
Caretaker Gazette really got me started as a house
sitter-caretaker and my last two assignments were found through
this membership. The broadcast ads have also been an excellent
source of advertising for me. D. M. Moab, UT

Yes Dennis, we are doing more email broadcasts than ever. Many
of these email broadcast ads never get published in any issue
because the property owners need to make a quick hire.
That’s why we advise all subscribers to provide us with an
email address to use for them. We have many subscribers who
don’t use computers themselves, but they give us a friend
or family member’s email address so that they can receive
our email broadcast ads every week.

Dear Gary, congratulations to you and your able crew on your
silver anniversary. I believe we have been with you the entire 25
years that you have been publishing the Gazette. Huzzah, T. R.,
Belize

Thanks Tanya. We keep growing about 25% each year, so we plan
on getting better and better for many years to come!

Thanks, Gary, for again handling our help-wanted ad, and for the
suggestion about mid-week advertising for your email broadcast
service! I always find our Gazette ads produce quality candidates
for our open positions, and it is a pleasure to do business with
you! Your response time, suggestions and of course, costs are
outstanding! Kind Regards, A. C. Henderson, NV

Hi Anna, thank you for your kind words. Glad to hear you have
had a positive response to your ads in the Gazette. We pride
ourselves on bringing qualified caretakers and property owners
together. Success stories like yours are a major reason why we
have been in business since 1983. Best wishes!

how to encourage soil fertility without large amounts of imported
organic matter, if you are interested in why I believe there is
no really sustainable form of alternative energy to fossil fuels
and why we all need to adapt a simpler lifestyle, then you are

Quote: "Not all who wander are lost."  J.R.R. Tolkien

                                Jeff and Karen

        Jeff and Karen Hay have been successful caretakers for
many years. Their last Caretaker Gazette Profile proved just how
successful they've been - they received many inquiries from other
Caretaker Gazette readers wondering "How do you do it?"

                Among an assortment of great caretaking
locations, they had two particular standouts. One for several
years as caretakers of a 26 acre private island estate in Kaneohe
Bay, Oahu. Known as "Coconut Island" this estate was
the same property as the opening shots of the "island"
from the popular TV series "Gilligan's Island".  Jeff
and Karen were responsible for the oversight of several employees
and managed and maintained several dwellings, two boats,
vehicles, equipment and the extensive grounds. The absentee owner
lived in Japan and had many friends and business associates visit
the island. Jeff and Karen hosted the guests as well as other
special events. The island estate was such an idyllic setting
that many groups and individuals requested use of the facilities.
It was very important to the owner to maintain good relations
with not only the community but with the University of Hawaii as
well who had their Marine Biology Center housed there. Jeff and
Karen were the owner's liaison with these various groups and
individuals. Jeff says, "We received a generous salary,
including benefits, a two bedroom two bath home on the island and
the use of the boats and vehicles. When the University of Hawaii
decided to buy the island, we left Hawaii to travel with our two
children. Caretaking had allowed us to home school them and we
explored Mexico, Costa Rica and most of the southwestern United
States as caretakers." 
                Caretaking was an option Jeff and Karen were
still considering when they found and subscribed to The Caretaker
Gazette. For five years, they managed a ten acre organic orchard
in the north part of the South Island of New Zealand. They
learned a lot about organic growing and sustainable agriculture
there. The property had plums, avocadoes, figs, pears, apples,
fejoes, citrus and much more. Its acreage overlooked Golden Bay.
Karen kept the accounts and they both marketed the produce to
small organic shops.
                Jeff and Karen met 20 years ago in southern
California. Jeff flew over from Hawaii for a friend's wedding,
met Karen and decided to move to California. Karen had a
managerial job in marketing and advertising with a large savings
and loan company and Jeff was offered a lucrative sales
management position. But when they decided to start a family they
started questioning their lifestyle. They wanted more time
together with a slower pace of life and decided to climb off the
corporate ladder. Jeff and Karen say, "Caretaking has
provided us with something we can do together and a pace that
gives us the time to pursue our other interests. We've also been
fortunate enough to caretake two beautiful properties in
different hemispheres."
                In their previous 2003 profile Jeff and Karen
stressed the imperative of a trusting relationship between the
caretakers and property owners. Since that profile - which really
turned into a caretaking forum, they've given a lot of thought to
exactly what does make them successful.
                While they are still quick to qualify all their
advice with the essential trust between partners (caretakers and
property owners) inquiries have led to a sharper definition. Jeff
and Karen now say that the "right fit" in caretaking is
of real importance and to obtain that "fit" the
caretakers must know who they are and what they want. Karen says
at first it can be as simple as a desire to live a more romantic
life in exotic locales. However to get "the perfect
fit" can take a more exacting definition and while that
definition would seem to go without saying they say it's not wise
to leave it unspoken. Jeff and Karen see caretaking as an
alternative to the go-to-school, get-a-degree, get-a-career,
work-for-thirty-years, then retire concept that is a mainstream
life choice.
                Beyond that Karen and Jeff say that they've very
specifically defined the most important aspects of what they
consider a meaningful life. Under a general heading of
"Another World is Possible" they have inserted the
specific desire to help create a more sustainable culture in
which, for instance, organic agriculture (i.e. permaculture
principles) figures largely. Jeff and Karen now see The Caretaker
Gazette as more than an employment service rather as a potential
meeting place for people to connect with property owners who
share a compatible outlook. They are currently in talks with
several people who share their passion.
