Long-term pet and housesitter

About this sitter

I am a quiet, introverted person that enjoys time by myself or with some furry friends around.
I have a remote job which luckily offers me the opportunity to be able to work from anywhere with an Internet connection - and that allows me to travel to lovely homes and new areas that otherwise I probably wouldn't go to.

Why they want to house sit

A main reason I enjoy housesitting is the fact that I get to spend time with lovely pets, something I really miss, as I grew up on a farmhouse.
Another reason I like housesitting is that it allows me to save money for getting my own place, hopefully... and in the same time to see great places and get inspired from all the little things that make a house a home.

Their experience

My experience in housesitting is with family, friends, friends of friends' and many beautiful people that trusted me with their home and pets via websites like this one.
Usually, it involves taking care of pets like cats, dogs, or both, fish and some light gardening or house plants. However, I have also taken care of rabbits, exotic birds, chickens, pigs, horses and cows - I absolutely love cows, they are so smart and kind, definitely my favourite animals. I also love dogs and cats of any color and shape and the only animals I haven't taken care of yet are snakes and other exotics.
Am also quite knowledgeable about plants, and while cala lillies choose to die around me, the rest thrive and I have even revived a few qlmost dead plants, as well as did general flowers gardening and established some veg patches in my time housitting.

What can they bring to the assignment

With cats and dogs, I like to give them belly rubs, play around and fussing, and have lots of fun if they prefer to. I also love to take dogs out on walks to get fresh air and move around.

My references from previous home owners and pet parents I have house-sat for might put your mind at ease; I understand how worrisome can be to have a stranger come into your house and stay there while you are away... so I am happy to communicate and even meet beforehand if possible.
