In good health non-smoker. Prefer a quiet lifestyle. No partner on the horizon. Enjoy the company that comes with social outings. Enjoy listening to music and being outdoors in nature.
Love my Border Collie "Minty" (female 11 year old). She is desexed, in good health for her age, friendly with other dogs and safe around children. Her vaccinations are current and has microchip. Minty is familiar with cats, chickens and other animals in general.
My previous professions include Counsellor, documentary filmmaker, electronics technician ex-military.
I did spend 12 months in China as a contract English teacher.
I have five grand-children.
Occasionally enjoy photography and acrylic painting. Outdoor activities hiking camping cycling and kayaking . Singer musician ukulele.
I have been house sitting for the past 8 years and in that time had experience with most pets.
I do prefer house sits that run for medium to long term (4-6+ weeks 6 months+) but will consider any house sit if I have a short gap between house sits. I do ask permission to be allowed limited occupancy of the home while house-sitting.
I am retired and therefore 24/7 spend all my time caring for pets and the security/maintenance of homeowner's property.
I am experienced in yard/garden maintenance
Special note: In some of the homeowners reviews there is mentioned a friend of mine (Evert) who for a time was housesitting with me. He has moved on to full time employment.
