Hello,
My name is John. I am a registered nurse from San Diego, California, now retired and traveling around the USA and Europe. I have been a house and pet sitter for over 10 years. I have had assignments in the UK, USA and Europe. I am accepting assignments in the USA, UK and Europe through December 2025.
I am available at a moments notice (if I'm not on assignment) and can arrive to you within 48 hours once the assignment is confirmed
I worked in Surgery in various roles, including supervisor. As a result of my career and training, I understand the importance of being responsible, accountable and able to meet challenges with quick solutions.
I am looking for various house sits now in the USA, UK and Europe. Since I started my retirement, I have done house sits in the USA as well as many parts of England and France, including one client of Hollywood notoriety.
I have excellent references, am completely dependable, low key, easy going, and have a great love for animals. I am single, don't drink, smoke or do drugs. Usually in bed by 10 and up at 6. I am very tidy (nurses training) and will care for your home with the utmost respect.
I am available at a moments notice and can travel anywhere. So if you are looking for a caring, respectful, responsible house sitter, look no further. Please check my references. You will see for yourself how pleased my former clents are and have had me back to house sit for them on more than one occassion!
Thank you.
Here are three of my references, first being the most recent. Once you contact me, I will open all my references and their contact information:
John Woodgate - Experienced, reliable, calm & kind. John is the nicest person you would want to meet. He has just completed close to 3 weeks caring for our home & boisterous 2 year old Sprokerpoo 'Arlo'. Our home & garden were immaculate on our return and Arlo quite clearly loved John. We could not have asked for more. We had frequent updates on how Arlo was doing which was so reassuring. We are hopeful that John will return to us for a future sit and we would say that if you are given the opportunity to have John care for your home and precious pets then do not hesitate to accept!

To Whom It May Concern:
I actually met John randomly at a neighborhood coffee shop and my newly rescue dog immediately fell in love with him! We chatted a bit and he told me about his very interesting and adventurous life and we hit it off. A couple of weeks later, I asked him to pet/house sit for a week when I was gone on a vacation and I was quite happy when he agreed.
John has stayed at my place 4-5 times and I can't say enough how confident and comfortable I was to leave my baby girl, Sadie in his care. He is responsible, reliable, communicative, and most of all kind! He really enjoys spending time with animals and would take Sadie on multiple long hikes and play with her. He even tried to teach her a few tricks, but I think Sadie was too distracted and wanted to play than learn ;)
Every time I returned from my trips, I found the house absolutely spotless and clean! He had gone way and beyond to keep everything looking even better than I left them!
My dog is a very sweet, yet anxious dog, but John has been very attentive and gentle with her and she really can't get enough of him! I highly highly recommend John and would be happy to speak to you if you would like to reach out and ask me more questions.
Neda

Reference: John Woodgate
We were very fortunate to have met John Woodgate. He has been house sitting for us at various times during the past 3 years here in France.
He is trustworthy, very responsible and our dog Gari loves him. We have a large property and John manages everything. Every time we return the house is in better shape than when we left it. He is also a great chef. It is always great to return home to lovely meal.
If you would like to talk to us further please call or send us a mail:
