Hi! We are an active middle-aged semi-retired professional couple looking for a house sit for various times in the UK or Europe. We are non-smokers with grown children. I work as a forensic genealogist part time and my partner is a psychologist. We would consider any pet and/or garden sitting opportunity. We enjoy living in different places for short or longer periods to enjoy the countryside and culture through writing and photography. We have an address, car, bicycles, and telephone in Germany that we use while in Europe.
What can we do?: We both have had dogs and cats. We can wrangle chickens and take care of horses. We had bees as a hobby in Canada. Between us, we've renovated six houses and can do most repairs, such as basic plumbing, electrical, and carpentry work. We can operate outdoor power tools and drive a tractor. We come from farm families in Canada and understand when hard work is required. We both have business experience combined with our construction and renovation skills. We speak English, German (fluent) and French (intermediate). We are responsible and reliable as our references will attest. Looking forward to sitting for you!
