Thank you for taking the time to review my listing. I'm a former arts and humanities instructor with a Master's in Art Therapy. I have a passion for nature photography and hiking. I occasionally offer workshops on "Photography as Meditation" and related topics during my travels.
My quiet presence seems to be calming around pets. I've become very fond of the pets I've cared for. Most of my house-sitting assignments have been two months or longer, but I am open to shorter stays. Please feel free to contact me if you'd like to learn more about my experience and references.
I've been fortunate that for the majority of my assignments as a house and pet sitter, I've received a stipend to help with travel costs. I am open to negotiating the amount with the homeowner.
The following are testimonials from a few housesitting assignments. I can provide additional references upon your request:
Absolutely Fabulous
We were so blessed to find Nancy! She was the most wonderful house sitter and looked after our cat Nala so well. Nala took to her straight away! When we arrived home our house was so clean, neat and tidy. Communication was easy with Nancy also. We will be asking her back again with out any hesitation. Highly recommend her! Thank you Nancy!

"We happily recommend Nancy for housesitting and catsitting"
Nancy looked after our house while we were away for two months and we returned to find the house just as we left it. Everything was well looked after, including our very high maintenance cat. In fact, he seemed to have gotten along very well with Nancy and was happy as could be. Nancy is very conscientious and she reached out any time there was a potential problem. From the very start, in fact, she was an excellent communicator and helped make the entire process go smoothly. We happily recommend Nancy for housesitting and catsitting."

"Reliable, Responsible and Resourceful."
We have been fortunate to have Nancy house sit. She has been extremely reliable and has helped resolve some serious issues such as a broken gas line and a leaking refrigerator water line. We have two cats, a turtle and several house plants to which she has been very attentive. She is also outstanding in keeping the house clean. Nancy has been house setting for us over the last three winters and I’m hoping she will be available to sit for us again next winter. I highly recommend Nancy!
