Experienced and reliable non-smoking sitter available for longer stays

About this sitter

I’m a quiet and reliable Finnish writer and solo entrepreneur who finds joy in calm routines, simple living and the company of animals. At home I share life with my cat, Edison, so daily care, playtime and cuddles are part of my rhythm.

I don’t smoke, drink or use any substances, and I’m happiest in peaceful, nature-filled surroundings, even if the landscape feels a little wild. What matters most is that the place has reasonable transport links (bus or train), so I can explore or reach town when needed.

I’m looking for longer sits, ideally from a few weeks to a couple of months, where I can combine caring for pets and a home with my writing work. For me, house sitting is not just accommodation. It’s about trust, respect and giving your pets a calm, consistent presence while you’re away.

Why they want to house sit

House sitting allows me to live slowly and intentionally. I love the rhythm of caring for animals, maintaining a cozy home and weaving my own work quietly in between. I’m not a tourist rushing through; I prefer to settle in, learn the surroundings and keep everything running smoothly as if it were my own.

I don’t party, and nightlife doesn’t really tempt me. I enjoy peaceful evenings, a good book or film, and early nights with proper rest; it’s the kind of quiet balance that keeps me focused and present for the pets I look after.

Because I work remotely, I can stay for longer periods without distraction. That means your pets won’t be left alone for long hours, and your home will be cared for with steady attention and genuine affection. It’s a simple exchange that feels meaningful on both sides: you travel in peace, and I get a temporary home filled with purpose and companionship.

Their experience

Yes. I live with my own cat, Edison, and know what it means to take care of a pet every day; feeding, cleaning, giving medicine when needed, and making sure he feels safe and loved. My son is moving to a new home 2026 and will be taking Edison with him.

In addition, I have looked after friends’ cats and dogs when they have travelled, and I enjoy keeping routines, walks and playtime consistent. I’m used to both energetic pets and quiet companions.

I also take pride in looking after the home itself, keeping things clean, organized and secure, so that owners can return without any stress.

What can they bring to the assignment

Reliability, calm energy and care for details. Your pets will have company, routine and affection every day. I’m tidy and practical by nature, and I’ll leave your home as clean as you left it.

I’m comfortable in quiet, rural or rugged settings, but equally appreciate a good connection to nearby transport. I respect your space, your neighbours and your pets’ habits.

What I really bring is peace of mind: a steady presence, no drama, and the assurance that your home and animals are safe, loved and exactly as you left them.
