Smallholding, Farm and Pet Sitter

About this sitter

I'm a smallholder with more than two decades of experience growing vegetables and fruit, and working with most farm animals: cats, dogs, chickens, geese, ducks, turkeys, rabbits, pigs, goats, sheep, and horses. In addition to looking after your house or smallholding, I have my own work (which is remote with flexible hours), so I need a good internet connection.

Why they want to house sit

I love to travel and explore new places, but I also like to engage with my surroundings when I visit. Taking care of a house and animals is a way that I can contribute and feel that I've truly been to a place, not just passed through. I love nature so I prioritise going to places where I can be outside.

Their experience

I've looked after my neighbour's house and smallholding locally. I have done some WWOOFing (working on a farm abroad). I have two decades experience looking after my own hobby farm and animals.

What can they bring to the assignment

I'm detail oriented, responsible, and experienced. I always try to communicate clearly and make sure that I understand exactly what you need before you leave.
