About this sitter

Hello: Our names are Arlene and Martin. English is our language. We live in Vancouver, BC, CANADA.
We are very fit and healthy retirees. N/s, N/d. Love reading, gardening, hiking/walking and DIYing. Love animals. We are very handy people, always a project on the go. Martin is a retired mechanic and Arlene is a retired cleaner.
Type of house sit we're looking for can have cats, fish, birds, small critters and medium to small dogs only. Will do plant/garden/yard maintenance and care.
Thank you for thinking of us and hope to hear from you.

Why they want to house sit

We like the win/win situation of house sitting. Enabling both parties to get what is wanted and needed. Would like the opportunity to experience new things, people and places.

Their experience

I (Arlene) did some house sitting in my late 20s, so I have some experience. Leave the house the same as one finds it or better. But haven't since, so I have no references. Sorry.

What can they bring to the assignment

Pets have been cats, med to small dogs, fish and birds. Like animals and willing to learn. We are avid hikers/walkers and gardeners. Very clean and conscienscious of others and their property. Reliable and trustworthy.
We are very knowledgeable about house care and maintenance.

Testimonials

A trusted house sitter

Arlene was a great fit to look after my cat and condo. She was prompt on replying and keeping me updated while I was away. My place was clean and tidy when I returned, she even made the bed. I would use her as a sitter again.
