Mature, Active, Pro Lady - love plants + animals [+1 quiet teen son]

About this sitter

I am an African Brit. UK Local at this time. My background is varied career-wise and have 30 years professional work in my wake.
I am flexible. I appreciate the full range of rural to upmarket sits and have no problem with work around supporting animals. I prefer space for my small family [1 quiet, well-travelled 17 year]. Dad , my good friend, also a mature, responsible, sensible pro may join only when and if sit permits. He is less flexible than we are. We would need 2 rooms min. unless, I offer as a single sitter. Open to discuss.

Why they want to house sit

Combined with Travel. I am working on a private, humanitarian project. House Sitting allows me to continue my work while I operate a low-key lifestyle and work. Change is important to me as I work solo most of the time. I enjoy just being away and will make sure your home [and sentients] are looked after.

Their experience

Yes, House-sitting [France-Switzerland, South Africa - via another platform]; House-Swapping [UK, Spain, France]. Blessed with ample travel experience [Africa, America, Caribbean, LATAM, EU, UK]
