I absolutely love animals and enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s going for walks, giving them love and attention, or simply keeping them company. My work as a teacher has strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to notice and respond to the needs of others.

I enjoy spending time outdoors, exploring new places, and creating calm, positive environments. You can feel confident that your home and pets will be safe, loved, and well looked after while you’re away.

For a couple of years when I was younger, I lived on a small farm with my family, where I spent time caring for and looking after different animals. This gave me a strong understanding of the responsibility, patience, and care that animals need.

My parents also have a dog, who I love spending time with and helping care for. Through my experiences with pets and farm animals, I have become confident with animal care, routines, and understanding their individual personalities and needs.

I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going for walks, providing companionship, keeping up with their routines, or simply making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away.

I have a flexible schedule and enjoy taking the time to experience new places at a slower pace. I’m open to house-sitting opportunities of different lengths and enjoy caring for homes and pets while exploring new areas. I’m happy to discuss timing and arrangements to suit each homeowner’s needs.
