I have been the owner of a 140 year old historic home of my own in Batavia, Illinois for over 43 years and I have put lots of sweat equity into the house and yard over the years. I am responsible and would look after someone else's home as if it were my own. I love to work outside and I have a fairly large yard which I care for myself, so I can nurture your indoor and outdoor plants and care for gardens ,etc . I am not afraid of physical labor because I like to stay in shape . I have developed some fixit skills from taking care of things on my own. I love animals and have cared for dogs and cats most of my life. I had a horse of my own when I was a young adult and I did all the feeding, cleaning of stalls and the daily care . I love to hike and enjoy having canine companions to keep me company. I adopted two kittens during the Covid quarantine and they live with me.
I enjoy the simple things in life . My idea of a great day is to take my grandson to the park to play and then walk or ride my bike and meet friends at a coffee shop,read, or do some community service or a little home project. I love to meet new people and have new adventures. I love to garden and cuddle with my 2 cats. If I sound like the homecarer that you are looking for, I would be more than happy to supply references upon request.
