Hello

I am a housesitter with lots of experence and references. I care for pets and animals in your home while you are away so they keep their routines and don't have to go to kennels.

I do this as I have moved back to England from Vancovuer Canada to be closer to family and enjoy having furry friends around to go on walks with while I settle back into life here. I am retired after I sold my business in Vancouver. I owned and operated a residential property mangement business for 12 years. So I have lots of time to walk and take care of pets and will not leave them alone for periods of time and my focus will be on them. I occasionally do some online work. I like to walk and explore new areas as I am deciding where to settle in Lancashire to be close to family. 

My rescue dog was a large energetic blue Weimeraner called Max, he came to me as he had been very badly treated and then abandoned. It was the first time owning a dog that I had not raised from a puppy. He needed a lot of gentle care and medication to get him back on his feet. After a couple of months he was back to life and raring to go for 6 hour hikes up the North Shore mountains or swimming in the rivers or sea at the beaches around Vancouver. He has some socialising issues and needed to learn to be around other dogs. With careful training for both me and him we had a lovely time at dog parks and out on walks with other dogs. 

I am currently pet sitting on other sites and have references. I have looked after many different types of animals icluding, high energy and large dogs over 60 lbs and 2 huskies, I also looked after blind and old rescue cats, sheep, chickens, snakes, gecko's and fish. I grew up around farms and was used to being involved with lambing, hourses and chickens.
