Hello!! Before reading our resumee, we would like to tell you that we are planning an Europan travel based on sitting assignments from Spring to Fall next year We would be delighted to have longer term sits in Italy, France and Spain, preferably, beside the other countries in this region.
We are a retired, strict non-smoking, responsible and active couple willing to house sit your property in Europe, the U.S. and Central America/Caribbean. We are fluent in English, Italian and Spanish. Fair knowledge of French.
We have Spanish nationality and have lived in Spain, Italy, Dominican Republic, Colombia and Ecuador for more than 30 years, due to my job as International Civil Servant for FAO of the United Nations. Besides this, we have traveled extensively throughout Europe and the USA which has led us to have a good knowledge of local cultures and people.
Regarding experience, we have sit a home in two opportunities for five weeks each during winter in the "Sierra" near Madrid, Spain, and took care of a home in Florida, USA, for one month. Our longer assignment so far, was for eight months to take care of a large villa, gardens and two cats near Rome, Italy. We managed administrative matters as well as coordination of garden and maintenance personnel. References available. Recent sits have been in the United States, in three homes with dogs, in Virginia, Maine and Florida for close to one month each.
