Experienced & Discreet House Manager: Ensuring Peace of Mind for Your Home

About this sitter

Worldly & Discreet House Manager: With a background in tourism and luxury cruise ship travel, I'm no stranger to exploring new surroundings! As a working professional, I thrive in a remote work environment, so as long as a dedicated workspace is available, it's the perfect setup for house sitting. Bonus points if it's a North London location, as I have the option to work from my company's head office occasionally.

My experience extends far beyond travel though. My extensive background in education includes managing a boarding house at a prestigious UK boarding school. This experience naturally transitioned into supporting HNW families, as my initial roles as an ad-hoc nanny, governess, and tutor evolved into comprehensive house management responsibilities due to my organisational skills and passion for creating smooth-running households.

While the Covid pandemic led me to pursue a thriving career in online mentoring and coaching for a global ed-tech company specialising in Data Analytics and Data Science, my desire to manage private residences hasn't diminished.

Open to Explore: While I'm happy to consider house sitting opportunities throughout the UK, I'm also open to adventures abroad, as long as the time difference is manageable due to my existing commitments (ideally within a few hours). This allows me to maintain a healthy work-life balance while enjoying a new environment.

Multilingual Advantage: My fluency in French and Spanish is a valuable asset. If managing contractors or staff who speak other languages becomes necessary, I can confidently handle communication to ensure smooth operations.

Why they want to house sit

House sitting allows me to combine my love for exploring places with the opportunity to utilise my skills and passion for creating a comfortable and well-maintained environment. Being a working professional means I'll primarily work from "home" (your home!), but I offer great flexibility in terms of what's expected in exchange for the house sit.

Their experience

My experience extends beyond the typical house sitter profile. Here's how my diverse background equips me to excel in house sitting roles:

Household Management: Management of private / HNW households have instilled a deep understanding of discerning clientele expectations and an unwavering commitment to maintaining a comfortable environment.

Educational Expertise: My background in managing a boarding house at a prestigious UK school honed my organisational skills, ability to manage staff and cater to diverse needs efficiently. This experience translates seamlessly to creating a smoothly-running household for your peace of mind.

Adaptability & Problem-Solving: My travel and hospitality background instilled adaptability and resourcefulness. I thrive in new environments and excel at handling unforeseen circumstances with a calm and collected approach.

While the majority of my house sitting experience focuses on non-pet homes, I'm absolutely comfortable and experienced caring for furry (and finned!) companions. I have solid experience creating a loving and stress-free environment for cats, dogs, and fish, ensuring their well-being while you're away. I'm happy to consider most pets, as long as clear instructions and any necessary supplies are provided.

What can they bring to the assignment

In essence, I offer a comprehensive package that goes beyond just "house sitting." I become your trusted house manager, ensuring your home runs like clockwork while you're away.

Peace of Mind & Security: Relax knowing your home is in capable hands. I provide a reliable presence, ensuring the security of your property and belongings while you're away. Regular check-ins, adherence to security protocols, and clear communication keep you informed and at ease.

Seamless Operations: Whether it's a regular house sit or one requiring staff management, I excel at creating a smooth-running environment. My organisational skills and experience ensure all household tasks are completed efficiently and to a high standard.

Discerning Care & Attention to Detail: From meticulously caring for your home and belongings to receiving deliveries, I take pride in going the extra mile. You can be confident your home will be well-maintained and everything will run smoothly in your absence.

Adaptability & Flexibility: I seamlessly integrate into your existing household routine, minimising disruption. My ability to adapt to different situations and requirements ensures a truly personalised house sitting experience.
