I am a quiet, independent mature woman (with a partner now) who has good old fashioned values. I adore animals and have had pets continuously in my life - mostly from rescue situations.
The pets were my fur babies as I have no children. The pet list includes an endless number of "moggie" cats, a childhood "mutt", St Bernard, 2 x golden retrievers and 2 x border collies. I fully understand that animals need care, no matter what the weather! I totally appreciate that I am a guest in someone else's house and treasure the opportunity for a reciprocally beneficial situation.
I enjoy being adventurous in a new environment, particular using a "hub and spoke" model, immersing myself in the local culture and community. Animals are totally unconditional with their loyalty and I so enjoy their company and antics. Being older, it is time to start breaking out of the usual routines, exploring different lifestyles whilst still having a daily purpose. I.e. tending to animals, house, gardens, etc
I proudly co-own a house and keep all the maintenance up to date. I am a keen gardener who can spend all day out there! I have stayed in many Air B & B's, always leaving the place immaculate (even though I am paying a cleaning fee). I have years of experience with dogs and cats and am open to looking after other animals i.e. fish, donkey, rabbit, Guinea pig etc. I very frequently "sit" my neighbour's twin cattens (half grown up), spending a lot of time in their home playing with them, after feeding. I have been regularly "sitting" my friends corgi for a number of years as if he was my own.
I am not afraid of hard work and will the leave the place better than I found it, usually. Daily cleaning routines are not a problem. I would value your home as if it were my own and the same with any pets that I was entrusted with. The animals are part of the experience and certainly not a burden! I am fit and agile, so exercising pets is not a problem. I also enjoy walking and cycling. I equally enjoy staying inside reading or knitting, if need be. I am friendly, open, honest and a good communicator (all attributes I needed as a teacher of young children for 40 years).
