About me

personSolo

67, retired

Hello! because I choose to travel often I cannot own a pet, so housesitting gives me an opportunity to enjoy and care for animals, as well as, to experience other environments.

favoriteWhy I love house sitting

Housesitting gives me an opportunity to travel and enjoy the experiences that other places have to offer.

I love to spend time traveling, so housesitting is a great opportunity to unwind and spend time with animals and other environments. I am very respectful of other people's property. I'm confident you will be happy with my references; and will find that I am reliable, flexible, and a good communicator.

Pet care

Dogs and cats primarily, sometimes fish, birds very occasionally

Review

What a wonderful pet/home sitter and general overall great person. I welcome her back to my place anytime she wants. The animals, family and neighbours loved her too.
Garden Maintenance

Green garden!

Make sure the garden and potted plants are thriving when you get back - get a house sitter.
