Retired, have car, will travel Florida pet and house sitter

About this sitter

I'm a retired teacher and animal lover. I love nature, science, gardening, reading, and do lots of crochet.
I want to see all of the southeastern coastline from the Carolinas all the way down and all of Florida in particular. House and pet sitting allows me to see new areas and learn new things, plus I get the advantage to hang out with lots of different fur babies.

Why they want to house sit

House sitting allows me the chance to take mini vacations while doing something for someone else. I can see and learn new things everywhere I go.
I've had cats all of my adult life and last year I lost my girl of 15 years. I've found I can get the joy of pets caring for other people's pets.

Their experience

Most of my experience has been for friends and neighbors. I've cared for their 4 legged and feathered family in their home and in mine. Currently I live in too small a space to pet sit here.
I've fed and watered horses, chickens, dogs, cats, birds, and lizards. Animals generally like me and seem to find my voice calming.

What can they bring to the assignment

Lots of care and attention for your pets, respect and responsibility for your home and personal space. I'm a private person and respect others' privacy.
As stated, I am a retired teacher. I have a clean background and fingerprint clearance for substitute teaching.
