Recent Northwestern grad looking to housesit

About this sitter

I’m a 23-year-old woman from NY who is warm, responsible, and highly communicative, with a genuine love for animals. I grew up with golden retrievers and have extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats.

I’m the oldest of four kids, so responsibility, problem solving, and looking out for others have always been second nature to me. Throughout school, including while studying at Northwestern University, I regularly house sat for families across Long Island as well as the Evanston and Chicago area. I’ve done both short and long-term sits and spent extended periods, following detailed routines and providing extra attention with care and ease.

I’m neat, respectful of other people’s spaces, and very mindful of routines. I also work as a producer, which means staying organized, anticipating issues, and handling things calmly and efficiently comes naturally to me. Alongside that, I work flexibly as an actress, writer, singer, and dancer, so I’m home often and live an active lifestyle.

At this stage in my life, having a calm, stable environment matters to me, and house sitting is a great fit. I value the mutual trust it creates and enjoy providing peace of mind while homeowners are away. I always prioritize clear, kind communication and make sure homeowners feel updated and at ease.

I’m currently looking to house sit anywhere and would love the opportunity to care for your home and give your pets all the attention and love they need while seeing new places in the world. I’m happy to share references or connect on a call to see if it feels like a good fit.

Why they want to house sit

I’m at a point in my life where flexibility really matters to me, and house sitting is something I genuinely enjoy and feel good about.

I’m open to house sitting anywhere because I like experiencing new places and routines, and I take pride in adapting easily and showing up reliably wherever I am. For me, it’s about finding a good fit and creating a situation where homeowners feel relaxed knowing their home and pets are in good hands.

House sitting feels like a natural fit for how I work and live right now early in my career, and I really value the trust and mutual respect that comes with it.

Their experience

Yes, I am. I’ve been house sitting consistently for several years and have cared for a wide range of homes and pets. I grew up with dogs and bunnies (And brothers...if that counts!) and have extensive experience with both dogs and cats, and have handled everything from short sits to longer stays.

I’m very comfortable managing responsibilities independently, learning routines, and communicating clearly with homeowners throughout a sit.

What can they bring to the assignment

I bring a lot of positive energy and enthusiasm to a house sit. I’m naturally upbeat, friendly, and engaged, and I love creating a happy, safe atmosphere in a home.

I enjoy being active with animals, whether that means long walks, or playtime, and I’m also very comfortable settling into a calm, quiet routine when that’s what a home or pet needs. I’m adaptable, resourceful, and quick to handle anything unexpected without stress.

Overall, I bring care, attention, and a really good attitude. I take the responsibility seriously, but I also genuinely enjoy the experience and the connection that comes with looking after someone’s home and pets.
