Hi, I am an American from Washington, DC. After having lived in Japan years (where I had a corporate job in information technology and shared my home with a gorgeous Russian Blue cat) for over a decade, I am considering settling in a few different places in the world and would like the chance to try it out for a few weeks to or months. I have experience with dogs as well (before owning a cat, as well as those of family and friends), as well. I am very responsible and trustworthy (vegan, non-smoker, non-drinker, marathon runner), and love spoiling your animal and plant companions with affection. I am pretty handy performing repairs and projects around the house, too. For areas lacking convenient public transportation, usage of car greatly appreciated. References available upon request.
