Experienced animal carer from Wales, UK, seeking travel and animal companionship

About this sitter

Hi, I’m Lisa, born near the Bannau Brycheiniog in South Wales, now living in Cardiff. My work is writing and illustration, and my interests are wide ranging from reading and yoga, to painting and half marathon running. In a house sit I’m looking for animal companionship and a clean, comfortable home-from-home, in exchange for my kind, caring and responsible approach to house sitting and pet care. Ideally I would like to bring my friendly Cardigan Corgi Dolly with me where possible.

Why they want to house sit

Animals make life better, and so does travel. I want to house-sit to experience more of both. In a world where community is needed more than ever, I think house sitting is a positive exchange. As a lot of my work can be undertaken anywhere, house-sitting allows me the space to work and travel more freely, while supporting house-owners to travel also, knowing their beloved pets are well cared for.

Their experience

I’ve been a parent to rescue dogs for over ten years, also welcoming lots of dogs into my home for boarding and day care over the years. I have a profile on the dog-sitting app Rover, with 31 reviews, all 5*.

What can they bring to the assignment

I can bring my ten years of experience caring for many different dogs; my life experience and sense of responsibility; my love of exercise, nature and attention to detail which help me care for animals in the way they need; and my enjoyment of living in clean and tidy environments - your home and your pets will be in good hands.
