Recent Graduate Looking for Travel Opportunities

About this sitter

Hello! My name’s Raina Bailey. I am a recent graduate of the University of New Mexico, graduating with my Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Film. I am 24 years old. What I’m looking for in a house sit is a new experience! I am very responsible and a great communicator, so I’d appreciate if the home owner is thorough and open about their expectations and guidelines. Other than that, I don’t have many expectations of a house sit. I just want to help someone while also fulfilling my desire to get out of the States for a bit.

Why they want to house sit

I would love to house sit because I have had my passport for 5 years, and haven’t filled out a single page! I also love community engagement, and house sitting is a symbiotic relationship of helping other people within a community. I thoroughly enjoy cleaning, organizing, etc, as it is a meditative and grounding action for myself.

Their experience

I am experienced in both house sitting and caring for animals. There’s not really a professional position for these skills in the United States, but I have watched upwards of 30+ dogs, and 10+ houses in my lifetime. I also have a good amount of experience with cats and certain barn animals as well (my aunt has two pigs I watch a couple times a year). I have worked at a couple hotels as well, so I am more than comfortable cleaning up after others and maintaining a fresh and tidy living area.

What can they bring to the assignment

I believe I can bring any home owner peace of mind, as I am an amazing communicator due to my background of customer service. I also am very consistent with tasks, and have no issues with routines, chores, errands, etc. I value trust and respect, and in turn will treat both yourself and your home with such.
