About me

personSolo

55, Retired

Responsible 55+ looking for new experiences.

favoriteWhy I love house sitting

I am new to house/pet sitting but have many years experience with home and pet ownership.

Newly retired, quiet and responsible adventure seeker looking to discover new places and people. I enjoy the outdoors, gardening, and like to stay active. I have a deep respect for others and their personal space and possess a high attention to detail. I am excited to begin a new journey exploring opportunities wherever they may be.

Pet care

I have owned dogs and chickens. Although I have no experience with farm animals I am trainable and love to learn new skills.
