About this sitter

This is our first venture into the opportunity. We enjoy adventure. We are not adverse to expectations as sitting is a great opportunity to explore the people and culture of the area. As a past landlord, I am keenly aware of expectations and I was blessed with great tenants. Yes, I had the occasional less favorable tenant, but the good ones stand out.
We enjoy tennis and biking. I am on the court about 5 times a week and we will ride up to 80 miles a week.
It’s wonderful opportunity sharing an experience where both parties are surprised by expectations being exceeded as trust is a huge part of the opportunity.

Why they want to house sit

We are familiar with living outside of the U.S. Contrary to what most Americans imagine, there is a huge world out there and it isn’t all about the “American Way!”
Experiencing daily life in another country is a great learning experience and we hope for more.
Sitting in a rural area is more attractive than inner city.

Their experience

I lived in the West Indies for nearly 3 years in the early 1980s and engaged many long term rentals in different areas. I have travelled a good bit in Europe and enjoy Spain and Italy the most at this point. Louise is from the UK and has travelled quite a bit. She lived in Spain for a few years. Not a big fan of the expat favored places. Enjoying the country and it’s individual personality is more exciting.

What can they bring to the assignment

Responsibility, knowledge, willingness to adopt to local surroundings and engage in a humble manner recognizing expectations as a guest in another country. We may also be expected to manage your property as if it were ours.
