About this sitter

I am a retired professional. If I could, I would live in at least six different places a year.
House and pet sitting allows me to do this.

Why they want to house sit

For the past five years I have made many road trips in my 95 Chevy Van. As I travel, I like to pretend like I live in that area and not necessarily visit all the tourist spots. Instead, I like to market where the locals do, meet my neighbors, and walk through the neighborhoods or tour the rural areas.
When I first started road tripping, I discovered house and pet sitting. It gives me the chance to get out of the campgrounds and hotels and into a home.
My van and I have traveled in 47 states and and 7 Canadian provinces. I have also tended homes and pets in Belgium, France, and Australia.

Their experience

In the past 5 years, I have made sure that over 20 homeowners had successful vacations while their pets were loved, fed, and exercised and their homes were well kept.

What can they bring to the assignment

What do you need in a house and pet sitter? Let me know and I am sure I can figure out how I can provide it.
I own and live in a high-rise condo and also own a suburban duplex income property. I have owned several other properties in my lifetime including one that was over 100 years old.
Although I did minor repairs and handyman work on my property, it is like learning how to change the oil on your vehicle - once you learn how to do it and master the chore, it stops being fun after a few years.
But, I can sure solve a problem, switch a circuit breaker, shut off the water, and stop any other damage until I have called the correct service or repairman.
I always keep a home clean and tidy. Many folks have said they returned to a home that was cleaner than when they left it.
I enjoy walking dogs and can generally go for as long as the dogs want at least twice a day. I have never met a cat I didn't love, but as cat owners know there have been one or two that merely tolerated me.

Testimonials

Savvy and reliable lady who left everything spotless

Paula has been great in caring for our cat Meeko while we were away this Christmas. She was easy to communicate with, arrived on time for our meeting, and sent us daily updates. She also took great care of our plants and house, we found everything very clean and tidy. We had a hiccup with the house keys on the very first day and she didn't panic or get upset, she was able to solve the issue with the help of our property manager and truly gave us peace of mind while we traveled. Upon our return, our kitty was happy and relaxed. I would definitely recommend Paula for a sitting and I would have her back at ours in no time.
