About this sitter

Consultant and media developer, B.A., B.Sc. Ivy League. Non-smoker; no meds. Physically fit, trustworthy, dependable, a problem solver. Excellent references.

Your pets are paramount and accorded tender loving care. House, grounds, and pet areas will be kept clean, tidy, and secure. Gardening skills plus handy with tools for household repairs should the need arise. I own a car. Preference for longer sits, but shorter stays are fine depending on distance.

*FYI I advertise at MMH and a competitor housesitter site as Sitter Thomas. As it happens, since 2019 all my various assignments save one have been arranged at the latter site. I will provide you with screenshots of those assignments plus reviews, owner contact info, personal & corporate references, email addresses, phone numbers as attachments if you reply to this listing. MMH doesn't offer the convenience of attaching files to the initial inquiry.by a prospective sitter.

Why they want to house sit

I enjoy housesitting and pet sitting. Each sit is a new experience in a new locale; a new chapter in a book of fond memories. My aim in each sit has been to provide the best possible service to the home owner by diligently caring for their property, plants, and beloved animal friends..

Their experience

Begun in 2019, most of my sits have ranged from 2 to 6 months in duration; several of shorter duration. Dogs and cats. A sit in WV, entailed caring for 3 dogs + 5 cats + 1 kitten. Owners without exception have been very pleased with my care of their pets, plants, house and grounds. You will be, too. :-)

What can they bring to the assignment

Years of experience doing this and a level head to deal with exigencies should they arise. For example, during my 6-month house/pet sit in rural Missouri, the homeowner's 2013 electric water heater cut out. It was midwinter, to boot. With owner's consent, I fixed it by cleaning out thick lime-scale accumulation and replacing heating elements & thermostats. No charge to owner except for parts ordered from Amazon.
