Responsible, Creative Soul Offering Heartfelt Home & Pet Care

About this sitter

I’m Emily—a professional artist, devoted mother, and quiet adventurer. I’m based in Utah, USA, where I create symbolic and nature-inspired oil paintings for collectors and interior designers. My life and work are rooted in themes of presence, trust, and connection.

I’m looking for house sits that offer a peaceful, grounded environment—whether that’s nestled in the countryside or tucked into a cozy village. Places where I can continue painting, care for animals, and immerse myself in the simple beauty of everyday life. If there’s a garden or furry companion to tend to, all the better.

Why they want to house sit

House sitting gives me the opportunity to experience new places through a slower, more connected lens—not as a tourist, but as a caretaker. I find deep joy in holding space for others to rest, travel, or reconnect, knowing their home and pets are in loving, capable hands.

This summer, I’m hoping to spend intentional time traveling with my children during their school break—leaning into nature, culture, and experiences that expand their world. House sitting allows us to live simply and purposefully, while offering value and care to others in return.

Their experience

Yes—both formally and informally. I’ve cared for homes, pets, and gardens for friends, neighbors, and family over the years. While I’m newer to international house sitting platforms, I bring decades of real-life experience running my own home, raising animals (dogs, cats, fish, chickens), and teaching my children how to live with responsibility and respect.

As an artist who paints professionally from home, I naturally create a peaceful and tidy environment wherever I stay. I’m quiet, clean, and attentive to detail—and happy to provide personal references who can speak to my care and trustworthiness.

What can they bring to the assignment

I bring a calm presence, genuine reliability, and deep respect for your space and your pets. As a mother, I know how to anticipate needs. As an artist, I notice the little things. I don’t smoke or drink, I work from “home,” and I’m naturally conscientious about cleanliness, security, and keeping a home serene and well-tended.

I’ll follow your instructions exactly, communicate clearly, and treat your home as sacred. Whether it’s administering meds, daily walks, or tending to plants, I’m committed to helping your space feel loved while you’re away. If you're looking for someone gentle, grounded, and dependable, I'm your person.
