We’re looking for the nicest neighbours in town, and Pam Driver of Burswood has shared her lovely neighbours, David and Lara Hurst, saying they “are just wonderful”.

We’re looking for the nicest neighbours in town, and Pam Driver of Burswood has shared her lovely neighbours, David and Lara Hurst, saying they “are just wonderful”.

This year, Pam had a missing cat, which was quite out of character. Driver let the Hursts know, and they joined the search, successfully locating him in the gap between the ceiling and roof of their neighbour’s house.

Pam said “They rescued him and brought him home to me... complete with some scratches! I hate to think what would have happened had he not been found”.

Pam nominated the Hursts to let them know she is thankful for them: “It’s so good to know I have such caring neighbours who have my back. Thank you neighbours!”

Nominate someone in your hood, and your special neighbour could feature on Stuff and Neighbourly as an inspiration to us all (plus there are prizes to be won!).

Seeking Summer Pocket Money

After doing really well for the last couple of summers, and absolutely loving it, my soon-to-be 12-year-old has asked me to put the word out again about her availability for looking after your pets over the coming summer.

After doing really well for the last couple of summers, and absolutely loving it, my soon-to-be 12-year-old has asked me to put the word out again about her availability for looking after your pets over the coming summer.

Over the last two summers she has she managed to earn enough to buy herself a cake mixer, a Fitbit, roller skates, clothes, lots of bits and bobs, endless packets of mentos, and funded all her spending money for an overseas trip, with enough left over for the rest of the year. 😊 Not sure what next year will bring for her but she’s keen to have a few dollars put away to make the most of whatever it is.

She's keen to feed small pets and birds, water pot plants/gardens, walk friendly dogs etc etc. Available immediately and throughout the summer up to the end of Jan (a couple of weekends away but we can discuss). Please keep her in mind if you're away for a few days or a few weeks.

Rates negotiable! References available from happy customers.

Needless to say she will be fully supervised! 😊 Text me on 0226206258, and she'll have her people talk to your people!

Today, I had a conversation with a customer who had concerns about our online booking system. They felt that the form we require to be filled out was too complex and suggested that we should offer phone bookings as an alternative. I tried to explain why we do things the way we do.

I understand the appeal of talking to a real person on the phone, especially when it comes to planning a move with a company like Mr. Shifter. However, I wanted to stress the importance of our online form. It's not there just to complicate things; it's designed to help us make sure we send the right team and equipment to make your move smooth and efficient. That's why it may take a bit of your time to complete.

I do acknowledge that the form can seem like a hassle. But what's important to understand is that if we switched to handling phone bookings, we'd have to hire more staff to manage those calls. This, in turn, would lead to higher costs for our services. At Mr Shifter, we're committed to providing affordable solutions to our valued customers, and the online form is a key part of that commitment.

So please, the next time any small local firm asks you to fill out an online form, it's not about inconvenience but rather about ensuring a seamless process and keeping our costs reasonable. It's our primary aim is to offer affordable, efficient, and high-quality services to all our customers.
