"Everything I know I learned from dogs." – Nora Roberts

About this sitter

I'm a big animal lover and have had the joy of owning 4 dogs, 2 cats, a hamster, a rabbit, a bird and many tropical and cold water fish so far in my life.
I'm an experienced plant parent too so I'll be sure your plants have been maintained, watered and thriving.
I'm happy to keep you updated with regular emails, texts or photos. Although you may prefer to just be left alone to enjoy your vacation, knowing everything is taken care of.
I understand details are important so I will take careful note of everything you tell me about your pets and home and make sure that it's all carried out as you wish. If you need any small tasks taken care of while you're away I'm happy to assist, such as taking calls, passing on messages, garden maintenance, laundry or local deliveries.

Why they want to house sit

In 2013 I sold a business and took 5 years off to travel the world. I absolutely love to see new places. These days I prefer doing it at a slower pace and getting to know the local hotspots and people, so house sitting suits me well. I also love that I can give others the freedom to travel while having peace of mind that their homes and pets are safe and sound. I have been in your shoes and hired many house sitters in the past. I absolutely adore animals, but living in a small apartment on Cape Cod doesn't suit owning my own pets right now. So I have lots of love and cuddles to give your dog/cat/guinea pig/goldfish!
I work from home, so you can guarantee your animals will get plenty of attention, as well as the security of your home. I like to get out every day for a walk so I'll be excited to explore the local area. One of my favorite things is taking a dog for a walk. So if you have a dog they will get plenty of exercise! I owned a home maintenance company and I love keeping a home beautiful!
