Experienced and Multilingual House Sitter Available for Your Home and Pets

About this sitter

I’m Thomas, an experienced and reliable house sitter fluent in multiple languages. I was born in the Dominican Republic but grew up in Germany, which has given me a rich cultural background and proficiency in several languages. I speak Spanish as my native language, and I am also fluent in German, English, Italian, Portuguese, and French. Additionally, I am currently learning Swahili.

After quitting my job as a public school teacher, I became self-employed as a language tutor, running my own online school. This career shift has allowed me the flexibility to travel and explore new places while continuing to share my passion for languages.

I am looking for homesitting opportunities where I can use my multilingual skills to connect with local communities and provide exceptional care for your home and pets. I value clear communication and am eager to create a safe and comfortable environment for both you and your pets.

Why they want to house sit

"I want to house sit because it allows me to combine my love for pets with my passion for travel. I absolutely adore animals, but due to my frequent travels and the nature of my self-employment, I currently don't have the opportunity to own a pet myself. House sitting provides me with the perfect chance to care for pets and experience the joy they bring, without the long-term commitment that wouldn't be feasible given my lifestyle.

Additionally, as I’m at the beginning of my self-employment journey as a language tutor, house sitting offers a cost-effective way to explore new places while helping me save money. I relish the opportunity to discover different locations and cultures, and house sitting allows me to do so while providing peace of mind to homeowners that their pets and homes are in good hands."

Their experience

Yes, I am experienced in house sitting and pet care. Growing up, I always had a dog, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding and managing pet care needs. Additionally, I frequently house-sat for friends and family, looking after their animals whenever they went on holidays. This hands-on experience has helped me develop a keen sense of responsibility and adaptability in caring for different pets and home environments.

What can they bring to the assignment

I bring a strong sense of responsibility and a commitment to treating your home as if it were my own. I am clean, organized, and meticulous in maintaining the condition of your property. My approach includes respecting and following any specific guidelines you have while ensuring that everything remains in excellent order.

My multilingual skills enable me to communicate effectively and diplomatically, ensuring smooth interactions with you and any local contacts. I am also a good listener, open to feedback, and eager to learn and adapt to new situations.

In terms of pet care, I am patient, understanding, and attentive to their needs. I enjoy cuddling with pets but also respect their space and preferences, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. I am experienced in recognizing and addressing specific care requirements, such as administering medication or following special routines.

Additionally, I am thorough with paperwork and documentation. I ensure that all relevant details are meticulously recorded, which helps in maintaining clarity and ensuring that everything is handled according to your instructions.

Overall, my goal is to provide a caring, respectful, and seamless experience for both your home and pets, ensuring they are happy and well-cared-for while you are away."
