About this sitter

Hello, we're Amanda and John a couple from the UK. We like housesits where we can enjoy nature, meet and spend time with nice animals, and experience new places.

We're both self-employed and work online while we travel. I (Amanda) am a writer and teacher of writing and have been running my own creative business since 2012. John is now training to be a Qigong instructor, after spending many years working as an arborist and doing grounds/property maintenance.

We are housesitting in Canada from September to November 2023 and are hoping to find a house sit in Canada or USA after that. We'd like a sit that is at least 6 weeks long.

Why they want to house sit

We like to travel, experience different countries and meet new people. We have travelled a lot and the most memorable experiences have been the connections we've made with people and the animals we've cared for when housesitting.

Their experience

We've done lots of different house sits - some just a few days and some for several months. We have loads of experience looking after dogs and cats, and have also looked after fish, chickens, ducks, geese, donkeys, alpacas and Falabella ponies.

We're used to walking dogs, on lead and off, in all weathers after spending several months house sitting in Ireland.

What can they bring to the assignment

We're calm, friendly, reliable, resourceful and happy to spend long periods in rural locations. John has excellent practical skills and we can both competently deal with issues if they arise.

We both love looking after animals and bring good care, kindness and companionship to pets and livestock.
