Your Pet & Home Care Partner!   I owned a home independently for 17 years, & care for yours not as mine, but as YOURS -- as you request and with the extra special care and concern I believe one should give when responsible for other people's pets & property.

**PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR INFO I ASK ALL OWNERS TO PROVIDE IN A REPLY MESSAGE PRIOR TO A PHONE CALL - THANKS!**

"Your Pet & House Care Partner!" I love the mutual benefit/exchange of house sitting and approach it in that spirit of shared consideration and appreciation.

I value (and provide) clear, timely communication as well. I've met some wonderful home owners with a similar style, for many years now (with very rare exception).

About Me:

  • 15 years house/pet sitting experience with multiple (enthusiastic!) references (I was doing this before sitting was big and these sites existed!)
  • Friendly, down to earth, & conscientious, I've been told I put people (and animals) at ease
  • I have many repeat pet/housesits over many years, the ultimate compliment
  • I love dogs AND cats, and have a good amount of experience with both
  • Responsible, professional, service oriented - I run an online resume writing business

My background is in education and customer service supervisory roles (which means I'm collaborative, and/or, will make a quick independent decision/take action, depending on the situation)

I'm not just an animal lover that likes to travel (though I am also those things), I treat this with the same  professionalism as my other business clients, with a personal touch.

  • Non-smoker, no drugs. No drinking also fine, no problem
  • Clean, neat, detail-oriented. All will be in order as you left it, or better, when you return
  • Plant/yard/pool care (etc.) also fine, just ask

I have a questionnaire/ checklist I use to gather vital info and instructions, which many clients have commented impressed them and was very useful.

I have online businesses. This means a couple things:

1) I'm home a lot (usually seen as a good thing/bonus).
2) I do need reliable, faster than not internet access (unlimited data strongly preferred). 

QUESTIONS FOR YOU ---- IN YOUR REPLY  PLEASE TELL ME (if not already in your ad)

I need these details prior to scheduling a phone call - thank you!

Please share a bit about your pet(s) personality and needs such as:

  1. Their habits, schedules (are their feeding times are set? or flexible, or are their auto feeders, etc.?) Please be specific vs. general ("7am" not "in the morning", if they have a set schedule)
  2. Where do they sleep? (and if that is set or flexible?)
  3. How often they need to go out, be walked if applicable, etc. (or are their pet doors?) 

Do note: I work late and am not a good sleeper: if your pets MUST sleep in the bed with me and/or MUST be fed or let out really early and aren't adaptable to changes in that routine, I am probably not a good match.

I will say that MOST pets DO adapt just fine in my experience.

I mention this all because I just want everyone to be happy - them, you, and me, too!

Additional Request:  Pictures of the living areas/guest room (best if in your ad) to give me an idea of your space.

Sit inquiries without any pictures will not be considered (you'll see I've included lots of my own in this spirit) It's always nice to see YOU, too! 

Also, please add anything else you'd like to share to help us all get to know each other!

Many thanks!

Shannon
