About this sitter

I am 59 years old/young responsible and trustworthy Finnish guy with brains and hands having a sound understanding what should, must and can be done and where an expert is needed.

I work from "home" with our family company (my sons are running it already) producing interior and exterior flooring, panels, furniture and other functional items for public and private spaces. I work nowadays mostly with my phone and laptop allowing me to be where ever I am needed. I travel for business and pleasure all over the world and intend to spend more and more time in different countries and different places.

Having a sound understanding and experience with animals, house and garden as well, I wish to show my thanks to you for allowing me to stay at your place by giving it all back if not in a similar condition, but perhaps even in a slightly better condition than when you left. Trusting your dearest to my watchful eyes and caring hands is important to me and like I was taught and I taught my 6 sons to - we do things as instructed and work as we would like at our home with our family.

I look forward to taking care of the animals and their well-being just as I look forward to living in your house and getting a unique feeling of trust, honor and responsibility from you letting me take care of your dearest while you are away.
I also like to do some cooking and gardening as well as small repairs too like painting etc. I am a professional cook as well as I had to earn some money during university studies and I worked onboard cruising ships as a chef.for buffé and á la carte.

Why they want to house sit

I like to travel and see different ways of life and how people live in other countries, other cultures. Far away and still feel at home and not like a group trip in a 5-star hotel with service and luxury. I like to experience life as it is and specially be with animals. Animals are always real and it is nice to learn their personalities and different peculiar habits. I was to be a Vet during my years in the University, but finally had to join the family company and build my career with interior and exterior materials, products and projects.

This house sitting gives me a possibility to be with different animals and in different countries with different cultures and cuisine without staying at crowded hotels with lots of tourists. Experience the genuine local home and thanking by taking care of the animals and facilities.

Their experience

Yes, very experienced as to my age I must be having had several animals and owned several houses. I am well trained and experienced in taking care of the various animals, house and garden too. Also in the way of understanding when I need and expert advise and when I should disturb the owners and ask/suggest what to do next.

What can they bring to the assignment

I normally travel light and have just some clothes, ipad, phone, laptop with me. Therefore I bring to the assignment the most important ones = my brain, my eyes, ears, nose, hands, legs and specially my know-how.
I have had several dogs, cats myself and lots of experience from taking care of different farm animals as well - like horses, cows, chickens, pigs, goats, lambs, birds and even alpacas.

The know how and experience is not limited to animals only, but likewise having had several own houses (60-600 m2) and having done gardening and house repairs from the cellar to the roof when needed. This means that you do not have to worry about emergencies and sudden needs for minor repairs.
In case you have tools to fix minor issues, it will be a pleasure.
