About this sitter
I am 63 and single.
I'm very healthy, intelligent, handy with tools, and could handle just about anything home-related that might come my way. I'm respectful of others' property and time. I am an excellent driver and absolutely an animal lover. I grew up on a small farm with many dogs, cats, goats, chickens and a horse I just lost my beloved dog Arnie in May '22. I have fostered three dogs since then and was able to find great homes for two of them. I am currently an active volunteer with Dog Star, the largest dog rescue in CT. I love meeting new pets or other animals and would treat them as my own. I have no issues following any instructions you provide.
Why they want to house sit
Retired from NYC Dept of Education and have time to wander the world. Don't be jealous! Now living in Connecticut after 38 years in New York City.
Their experience
please see my testimonials. In addition to my assignments here, I housesat for friends. I have done two house swaps where I traded my apt in NYC, once for a house in Miami and once for an apartment in San Francisco. I have fostered several cats and dogs in NYC.
What can they bring to the assignment
Maturity, dependability, flexibility, and humor. And I sent lots of photos of your pets while you are traveling!

Testimonials
Kevin is Great!!
We highly recommend Kevin to anyone who wants to feel secure in choosing a house and pet sitter! He was extremely communicative, kind, personable, attentive and responsible. Sent us such great pics of our kitties during our time away! We will absolutely take advantage of his services in the future.

Above and Beyond Great!
Kevin was fantastic. My pups Sam and Lucy loved him, and I am not surprised, he took such good care of them! He texted pictures when I was away and took special care to both love them up and also keep them on a good schedule. He also took care of my home and this was no small feat- a hurricane (which turned out to be minor) threatened to shake things up on Tybee. Kevin took extra care to ensure my home was prepared for the storm and kept me appraised of the situation. He stayed a bit longer to be sure that I was home safely. I cannot recommend him more highly!
