Caring experienced sitter who loves the outdoors

Pet care experience

Hello and welcome to my profile :) I have been house/petsitting for several owners and have lots of experience caring for homes and animals. I grew-up with cats, a Labrador, guinea pig, rabbit, and chickens. I have also done lots of volunteering work through the WWOOF (Willing Workers on Organic Farms) network, working with dairy cows, sheep, goats and horses, and lived on a small-holding last spring and cared for livestock there. I have organised and spent time in strangers houses many times through the 'wwoofing', 'couchsurfing' and housesitting communities. I am caring, vigilant and very respectful of people's property and requests. By nature I am very organised, clean and tidy. Additionally I have a DBS Certificate. When it comes to housesitting I tend to do this solo, I have a partner who sometimes joins for the odd weekend and he absolutely adores animals and will be sure to make a fuss of them!

Jemima was absolutely amazing, she took incredible care of our little dachshund for seven weeks. He was very sad to see her go. We had the best experience having her to stay and would not hesitate to welcome her back again or to highly recommend her to others.

Jemima was a wonderful sitter. It was lovely to meet her and her mum for an hour before we set off, we instantly could feel how considerate and kind they were. Dotty was quick to sit on their laps before we had even left the house! We received beautiful photos of the cats while we were away and they were extremely content and happy when we returned home - almost as if they hadn't even noticed we had gone! The house was beautifully clean and tidy when we got home and Jemima had kindly pick our tomatoes and put them in the fridge for us.

Jemima was a wonderful sitter. Her attention and care for our pets could not have been better. She made toys for the kitten and noticed a problem with her eye, and took her to the vet. She was thoughtful and most helpful and a joy to have in our home. Hope to have her back soon!
