Hi there-
I am a 33 year old single mother of 2 (age 11 and 13). We are from Santa Monica and have done a ton of house and pet sitting in Mexico, Los Angeles and Costa Rica. I have raised my children to be responsible and respectful of our living quarters and surrounding area. I work remote in Travel Sales and my daughters attend online charter schools. We are firm believers in education outside of the classroom. We love to garden, walk along the beach, play sports and cook. We will take great care of your property, pets and home as if it was our own, please don't hesitate to ask any questions to help give you the confidence in choosing to my family to look after your home. I would be more than happy to FaceTime to get a better feeling.
Why we want to house sit?
I have been traveling the world for the last 7 years doing volunteer work in countries like South Africa, Thailand, India, etc. I have fallen in love with traveling and want to share this life changing experience with my children. My children and I travel out of the country few times per year and will eventually head out on a "Around the World" trip. We firmly believe in living a down to earth, holistic life style and the world is our classroom. We love house sitting as it allows us to still feel like we are at home and we can get into a groove. House-sitting also provides us with a more local feel of each place we stay. We love learning about different ways of living, new cultures and exploring the land.
What we bring to the assignment / relevant experience
I have house swapped my flat in Santa Monica a handful of times and have a great understanding of the confidence that is needed when choosing a house sitter. We have cared for pets from fish to horses and many animals in between. We have up-kept organic gardens. We will keep your place clean (my children are very disciplined), we will tend to any gardening needs (we love to play in the dirt), we will love and care for your pets and most of all we will treat your home as our own; bringing love and laughter to fill your home.
