Adventurous Working Couple Ready to Care for Your Home & Pets with Love

About this sitter

As adventurers at heart and professionals by trade, TJ and I navigate the world with curiosity, empathy, and a deep-seated passion for growth. My journey toward becoming a Marriage and Family Therapy Intern is enriched by a decade of experience in mental health and social services, reflecting a commitment to personal growth, connection with nature, and creative exploration. TJ, the visionary behind Technical Justice LLC, brings an innovative approach to digital solutions, matched with a profound love for the natural world, a keen interest in exploring new cultures and the histories of the places we travel to. He thrives outdoors, feels at home near pets and animals, and carries a meticulous attention to detail into everything he does—be it pet care, home care, or crafting seamless technical experiences.

What we seek in a house sit goes beyond the experience of temporary living in new locales. At the core of our house sitting adventures is the desire to forge long-lasting relationships with homeowners and their pets. Each new connection offers a unique window into diverse cultures and ways of life, enriching our travels and our understanding of the world. By integrating into the daily rhythm of home life across the globe, we aim to transform the way we travel—immersing fully in local communities, embracing the essence of each place, and accumulating stories and friendships that last a lifetime.

Our approach to house sitting is grounded in mutual respect, open communication, and a genuine care for the wellbeing of your pets and home. We’re not just looking for a place to stay; we’re seeking experiences that allow us to live as locals, contribute positively to your home, and build enduring bonds that transcend geographical boundaries. Through this journey, TJ and I aim to expand our horizons, discover new perspectives, and carry with us a mosaic of unforgettable memories and friendships.

Why they want to house sit

For TJ and I, traveling is not just about discovering new places; it's about immersing ourselves in the stories, cultures, and rhythms of life that define them. Each destination is a new chapter, rich with unique encounters and experiences. House sitting is the bridge that allows us to live these chapters more fully, providing a sense of belonging even as we traverse the globe. It transforms the concept of being "on the road" into an opportunity to create a home wherever we go, deepening our connection to the places we visit.

The traditional journey from one hotel, Airbnb, or co-living space to another often leaves us yearning for a more grounded experience. Without the company of pets or the warmth of a consistent home environment, something essential feels missing. House sitting fills this gap beautifully, offering us the comfort of home life and the joyful responsibility of caring for pets. This chance to nurture and connect with animals is particularly special to us, as our current lifestyle makes it challenging to have pets of our own.

But our desire for house sitting goes beyond personal fulfillment. It's about forming a trust-based partnership with homeowners, ensuring that their most precious spaces and companions are treated with the utmost care and respect. With TJ's meticulous attention to detail and my passion for growth and empathy, we bring a unique blend of skills and values to every house sit. We see it as a privilege to be entrusted with someone's home and pets, and we're committed to providing peace of mind and heartfelt care in return.

Choosing us as your house sitters means entrusting your home to a couple who sees every house sit as an opportunity to expand our understanding of the world, to contribute positively to the lives of pets, and to leave a lasting, positive imprint on every home we inhabit. Our journey is fueled by the connections we make and the stories we become a part of—your story included.

Their experience

Over the years, TJ and I have woven a long history of house and pet sitting experiences that span several states, including California, Texas, Louisiana, New Jersey, and Nevada. Our adventures have introduced us to a variety of home and pet care situations, from maintaining homes without pets to caring for a diverse mix of animals, including dogs of various breeds, kittens, fish, and even a turtle named "Rabbit."

Our experience isn't just about the range of locations or types of pets; it's grounded in the depth of care we've provided. For over a decade, we've been the go-to choice for friends, family, and extended networks, looking after their homes and pets. This has included everything from routine care, like feeding and grooming, to more specific tasks such as administering medications.

In each home, whether tending to pets or not, our focus has been on ensuring security, cleanliness, and the smooth running of the household. This has often involved taking care of plants, managing mail, and overseeing any necessary repairs or maintenance work, ensuring that every homeowner returns to their house just as they left it.

Our commitment to this role comes from a place of genuine love for animals and respect for the trust homeowners place in us. It's this foundation that has enabled us to adapt and thrive in a multitude of house sitting environments, making us seasoned caretakers for your home and pets.

What can they bring to the assignment

In our house sitting assignments, TJ and I bring a blend of trustworthiness, reliability, and a deep care for both properties and pets, treating them as if they were our own. We understand the leap of faith it takes to open your home and entrust your beloved pets to someone new, and we honor that trust with the utmost respect and dedication.

Our backgrounds in mental health and technology uniquely position us to offer more than just traditional house sitting services. My experience as a mental health professional, coach, and Marriage and Family Therapist Intern has allowed me to develop resources like worksheets and workbooks, which can be beneficial for those seeking a gentle nudge towards personal growth or therapeutic support without the commitment to formal therapy. TJ’s expertise in technology enables us to provide services that ensure the safety and efficiency of your home, from maintaining security systems and performing computer updates to installing new appliances and setting up electronics. We’ve even lent our skills to help kickstart business ideas with website creation and other tech solutions.

During previous engagements, we’ve handled a diverse array of responsibilities — from vet visits and grocery shopping to managing home maintenance and caring for plants. We’ve also been trusted with letting in maintenance staff, handling mail and packages, and ensuring that electronics are up-to-date and functioning smoothly.

While we offer a broad spectrum of services as part of our house sitting, we also provide certain professional services at a discounted rate. This includes specialized tech support and personalized mental health resources. Our goal is to add value to our house sitting assignments, offering these services to enhance your peace of mind while away. However, our primary mission remains focused on ensuring the well-being of your home and pets.
