Early to Bed, Early to Rise

About this sitter

I'm a lover of all creatures and plant babies, tidy, and an early riser each morning which gets me to bed early. I've been told by pet owners that my spirit is soft and they can see immediately their animals are tuned into my gentle loving energy. My most recent experience is learning to gentle rescued horses that have been previously mis-treated and the owners often request for me to come work with their animals because my energy calms them. I meditate daily and spend time in nature often. I have a 15 year old 65 pound rescue dog who is quiet and well-behaved. He sleeps most of the day after his walk as he tires more quickly these days - a house that doesn't mind me and my puppy is a must. I'm an avid reader and a bit of a homebody, although I do enjoy meeting new people from all over adding more balance to my introverted nature. I enjoy sitting homes in quiet places that offer peace and reflective time for writing and creating.

Why they want to house sit

I work remotely as a clinical wellness, nutrition & fitness coach. I love to travel, see new places, and connect with animals, plants and land. While my current house sit references were made through personal referrals, I thought it would be fun to take some assignments and go on the road for a bit. If the opportunity comes up to house sit closer to immediate family, then that's a bonus as my dad, brothers & sisters are spread out across the U.S. - coast to coast.

Their experience

I have house sit for many friends and taken care of dogs, horses, chickens, turkeys, ducks, and cats. I'm a biochemist with nutritional research on the University farm many semesters with dairy cows - mucking stalls and feeding before daylight and before sundown, and milking in the later mornings. I also have experience taking blood & tissue samples with the Veterinarians; given an emergency, I could call the vet and assist if needed.

What can they bring to the assignment

I have flexibility in my work scheduling so that means flexibility to care for your pets, plants, & garden needs. I will follow instructions and have experience with special needs diets, care & giving medications.
I am a non-smoker, yogini, non-drinker / non-substance user, strong, & capable. I have a daily meditation & yoga practice with calm centered energy that animals gravitate towards. I am environmentally & energy conscious and keep an impeccable home. And, I will play soft music for your plant babies and talk to them daily as well. Most of all, I will fill your home, land, pets & plants with blessings of love & appreciation.
