Mature Professional Couple with Home Ownership and House/Pet Sitting Experience

About this sitter

We are a mature professional couple with a background in real estate property management who have left our corporate jobs to travel abroad. We own rental properties and understand the care & attention a home requires. We are also experienced house sitters and renters - we treat our assignments as if they were our own home. We look for comfortable, quiet housesits in interesting location. We love animals and have experience with dogs, cats, horses and other family pets!
We are new to mindmyhouse but would be happy to provide external references!

Why they want to house sit

We want to housesit because we love to travel but enjoy doing it at a slow pace. We are mature professionals on an extended leave from our corporate careers pursuing a more fulfilling life of travel. We are interested in house sitting in order to give us an opportunity to get to know a location as a local. We also love to care for pets and have a lot of energy to take care of them.

Their experience

Yes, we are experienced house sitters, renters and home owners/landlords. We are experienced with home care such as gardening, cleaning, caring for pets, handy work and other requirements that come along with home ownership. We are extremely respectful and leave homes in the same or better condition as we found them.

What can they bring to the assignment

Extensive home ownership experience. We also have had pets in the past and enjoy caring for pets. We enjoy the outdoors and would bring this to the assignment. We are experienced with home ownership, property management and property maintenance.
We have also had house sitters through mindmyhouse in the past so we understand the level of trust required of a house sitter. We are trustworthy and reliable, providing you with as much or as little communication you want while you’re away from your home.
We also have experience owning and managing short term rental properties (communicating with guests, checking guests in & out, changing over rooms/cleaning, handling payments etc.) and would be keen to provide these services if an opportunity it’s exists.
