Respectful, tidy and bubbly animal lover!

About this sitter

Hello!

My name is Abbey, I'm a 28-year-old New Zealander who has been living in Dublin, Ireland since May 2023. I moved here on my own to do some solo travel, reconnect with my heritage, and find more confidence and peace within myself – all while meeting new people and having the opportunity to embrace new and different experiences, cultures, lifestyles, and of course, food!

I am a former journalist and marketing copywriter, but now work for myself as a freelance writer covering a whole myriad of topics across a variety of different platforms - from website content to articles, blogs, advertising, general communications writing, and everything in between! I love the flexibility my job offers me, it's really given me that time to focus on the things that are important to me.

I am a very curious person, a deep thinker, and have a strong sense of empathy for people and animals. While I do like time to myself, I really thrive being around other people and sharing in conversation and experiences.

Why they want to house sit

My ideal housesitting experience would involve animals of any kind, I have a real connection to them and they bring me so much happiness! I have had pets of all kinds throughout my life, including a rabbit that my parents are taking care of in New Zealand while I am away.

Their experience

I have had animals all my life and have taken care of friends' houses over the years! While I have only recently signed up to Mind My House, I have several Nomador house/pet sits lined up for this year :)

What can they bring to the assignment

I am an incredibly clean and tidy person (possibly too much of one!) and am always willing to lend a helping hand where it's needed. As a self-employed person, I do however need the time to do my freelancing work – so a good internet connection is important.

If you've got this far, I can't wait to connect with you!
