Cat Person and Master Gardener

About this sitter

Hello,
I'm mature, responsible, fully vaccinated and a non-smoker American. Currently living in Paris.

I have had cats and dogs since childhood. I was the child who brought home stray cats and made my parents crazy.

I also have master gardener status, which required training, testing and volunteering to help other people with gardening questions and maintaining community gardens in Virginia. I miss having my hands in the dirt so working in your small garden or maintaining your plants would be a delight.

I worked in information technology and human resources before moving to France. Since living in France I have been involved in volunteer work as well as teaching English as a second language.

Why they want to house sit

I love to travel and I prefer a home over hotels, as I'm a "slow" traveler and like to take my time exploring new places. I also like to help pet parents and travelers feel confident that their home and pets are in good hands while traveling. I am an experienced gardener and can keep your house plants happy.

Their experience

I did one house sit in Belgium a few years ago. They invited me back, so I'd assume they were happy.
I've also had house sitters for my home when I started traveling.

What can they bring to the assignment

I will treat your home like it was mine and make the well-being of your pets my top priority.

Before moving to Paris, I was a homeowner in Virginia, USA. I used this site to find house sitters for my home and cat during my travels, so I know what it's like to be on the other side of this arrangement.
