Experienced, reliable pet lover & writer in NYC

About this sitter

I’m a Brooklyn-based writer and editor (https://www.aaroncrobertson.com/), currently taking time to focus on creative projects and freelance work. I’m looking for quiet, comfortable spaces—ideally in or near New York—where I can write, reflect, and care for someone’s home with respect and attention. I value calm environments, good communication, and a sense of trust in the exchange.

Why they want to house sit

House sitting offers a meaningful kind of mutual support: I get a peaceful place to work, and you get someone responsible and attentive to look after your home. I’m currently navigating a life transition and see this as an opportunity to create a kind of retreat space while helping others feel confident their home is in good hands.

Their experience

Yes—I’ve house- and pet-sat for friends and family over the years. I’ve lived with both cats and dogs, and I’m very comfortable managing routines, plants, tidiness, and home tasks.

What can they bring to the assignment

I bring calm, care, and clear communication. I’m clean, quiet, and highly respectful of people’s space and privacy. I’m happy to water plants, keep a watchful eye on the home, and stay in touch while you’re away. I also understand the importance of trust—especially when you’re opening your home to someone new—and I take that responsibility seriously.
