About this sitter

I’m a 20-year-old American educator, writer, and film photographer. I’ve lived in Italy twice and speak conversational Italian, so I’m comfortable navigating daily life abroad independently. I’m looking for house sits that let me experience a place like a local - quietly, intentionally, and with genuine care for the home.

Why they want to house sit

House sitting lets me travel meaningfully rather than just pass through. I want to be somewhere long enough to actually settle in.

Their experience

I worked as an au pair in Italy, which meant being fully responsible for a family’s home, routines, and animals on a daily basis. I also have years of babysitting and caregiving experience and am used to being trusted in other people’s spaces.

What can they bring to the assignment

Reliability, Italian language skills, and genuine love for the country. I’ve lived in both Milan and southern Italy so I understand how things work there. I have a Lab of my own, so animals are always comfortable with me. I’ll treat your home the way I’d want someone to treat mine.
