About this sitter

I'm a 69-year-old retired professional with a calm, responsible nature and a deep respect for other people's homes and pets. With more time and flexibility in retirement, I'm looking for peaceful house sits where I can care for a home and/or pets as if they were my own. I enjoy quiet environments, daily routines, and the companionship of animals, and I take pride in leaving a place just as I found it—if not better.

I'm living in Ontario Canada and looking to find places in Europe (Portugal, Spain, France, Greece, Italy) Looking for house sits 3 months at max, I offer reliability, cleanliness, and peace of mind.

Why they want to house sit

House sitting is a wonderful way for me to enjoy a change of scenery while still feeling purposeful and useful. As a retired person, I have the time, flexibility, and attention to detail needed to care for someone’s home and pets with dedication. I genuinely enjoy helping others feel at ease while they’re away, knowing their home is in safe, respectful hands. It’s also a lovely way to explore different areas at a relaxed pace, meet new people, and enjoy the company of animals when they’re part of the home.

Their experience

Yes, I have experience caring for homes and pets for friends, family, and neighbors over the years. I'm confident in handling the day-to-day responsibilities of looking after a home, including basic upkeep, plant care, and pet routines. While I may be newer to formal house-sitting platforms, I bring a lifetime of responsibility, reliability, and respect for others’ spaces. I treat every home as if it were my own.

What can they bring to the assignment

I bring maturity, reliability, and a calm, caring presence. As a retired individual, I have the time and flexibility to give your home and pets my full attention. I’m tidy, respectful, and naturally attentive to details—whether that’s keeping your space clean, following pet routines, watering plants, or keeping an eye on maintenance. I understand the trust it takes to leave your home in someone else's hands, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can count on me to treat your space with care and provide regular updates for peace of mind while you’re away.
