I am a slow traveler, meaning I love to spend longer periods of time in one location. I regard myself a traveler rather than a tourist and love exploring life elsewhere as if I was a local. Being retired means I am time rich and cash poor. I live in paradise in New Zealand, but miss the cultures of the EU, and love living summer+ summer.
I am looking for long term sits that will have access to to swimming to keep fit (natural waters or pools), allow me to go house hunting (Greece Italy, Spain), and make art (urban sketching in medieval towns and villages in Spain, Italy, or Greek Islands).
I have lots of house/pet siting experience in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand and own a property in New Zealand, grow my own food, and recently fostered a dog for 18 months. I have looked after dogs, cats, chickens, houses, and vegetable gardens. I am non-smoker/drinker, tidy, organised, dependable, and live a simple, healthy vegetarian lifestyle. One of my backgrounds is in architecture and have therefor a greater than average understanding of how to look after a property. I have references and police checks in place. Previous references on this site got lost as I unsubscribed during the covid travel restrictions. Most of my house sits are through word of mouth.
I am quiet, mindful, responsible, don't drink or smoke, and love company of animals.

Fantastic cat-sitter
Marcel has taken amazing care of my cat Zuco and went above-and-beyond in taking care of the house as well. I came home to a very tidy home and a very happy cat, I can only highly recommend Marcel!
