About this sitter

I've been a writer and journalist for over 30 years, and have lived for over a year on every continent (except the penguin one.) I love going to different places, small towns in America, huge cities in Europe or Asia, everywhere has its own charms.

Why they want to house sit

I love travel and I love animals, so it makes perfect sense.

Their experience

I've been doing this on and off since 2013. I reckon I've got about 100 pet sits under my belt at this point.

What can they bring to the assignment

First and foremost, reliability. Of all the petsitting I've done, I can contact virtually all of them for a reference. I worked as a maintenance man in NC for several years, so I can fix things. I'm great with dogs and cats.

Testimonials

Great experience -

Ian took exceptionally good care of Henry, the 5 year old mixed Lab and my home in South Philadelphia. During a pretty challenging time of high heat and complicated by a garbage strike in the city. I would definitely recommend his care to anyone on this site, and hope that he will return next year to do the same. In better weather!
