About this sitter

Over the last few years I have traveled all over the world. My wife Inna and I were just married in April 2023. Since I have lived in Lower Michigan my entire life, My wife and I now wish to spend extended time during the winter in warm weather.

Why they want to house sit

We are avid users of Airbnb to discount our travel costs. Minding people's homes is even better. Since we get along with people wherever we go, and have been trustworthy in all cases, it's a win-win for all.

Their experience

We are just completing a 16 month period in which we have sat for 15 homeowners! Switzerland, Panama, Spain, San Diego area, Simi Valley, Delray Beach, Ft. Lauderdale, and back home here in Michigan. We have always related well and held their trust. We have watched many types of pets. From a challenging African Grey Parrot to many medicated cats and dogs. We can do it all. Norwegian Forest Cats, Old Chihuahuas, Pugs, strong Boxers, and Russian Blues.
I have also done a WorkAway assignment which I really enjoyed in Morocco. I received a glowing review, which I can share.

What can they bring to the assignment

We are helpful and will follow all instructions given. We are non-smokers and non-partiers. I am a handyman and painter. Good with building and electrical work. Our respectful care of property and our natural love for animals have served us well in providing trusted care. I have had an orange male cat about 38 years of my life. My memorable 15 and then 16 year olds, and then the current 12 yr old (7 yrs with me). Animals generally sense my love. They will act as their caretaker/owner molds them to be.

Testimonials

Very nice and charming sitters

Alan and Ina were so nice sitters! They enjoyed our home but - thankfully - especially our 4 Norwegien forest cats. They took very good care, gave them company, brushed them in the garden, cleaned the litter boxes completely (thank you)! and "just" were here for the little ones. One of our cats needs special care in terms of eating, but also this hurdle they managed well. They tried everything to make her eat. They gave out youngest ones mice to eat, without any hesitation. They were very reliable and we were happy to have had them in our home Lets see if time will match again in the future and we can meet again Thank you Alan and Ina!

A responsible petsitter who cared for our pets in Spain

Alan flew all the way from the USA to Spain to care for our pets. We had a video call and kept in-touch before the assignment so we were both sure the plans were going nicely. Alan was polite and respectful and we went on holiday for a week knowing that our pets would be well cared-for. Whilst we were away, we frequently messaged each other about the pets and other details and when we returned, all was in good order. I would recommend Alan as a petsitter for anyone - thanks Alan!

Neat and Reliable!

Alan was a great house sitter. He made sure all the critters were well taken care off, our house was clean when we got home and he gave us regular updates on our pups. We really appreciate his patience with our senior Chihuahuas and would love for him to house sit for us, again!
