Jackie

I am delighted to offer my services as a trusted and reliable house sitter for your beloved pets and home. I have been pet-sitting for about 4 years (1 year with a previous partner) and I spent 6 months in France with some lovely cats, dogs and alpacas pre-lock down.

Also in my experience and skill set are cats, tropical fish, chickens (also turkeys and guinea fowl), rabbits, small cage animals, sheep, pigs, bees and alpacas!

 Small gardening tasks also undertaken, eg. watering, dead-heading etc.

I am keen to explore new areas and I am comfortable being in remote locations.

 I travel in my own car. I live in a fairly rural location myself and I am used to the country way of life, log fires, gardening and wildlife and love being in nature, as well as the occasional hustle and bustle of towns. I am independant and resourceful, enabling the homeowner to have peace of mind whilst away.

My interests include dancing (Ceroc), reading, walking, gardening, and I love to cook and bake, sourcing local produce wherever I can. I lean more towards spending time with your pets than visiting the local tourist attractions, although I do occasional like to see new sights and living amongst the locals and learning about their culture. I always leave owners homes in a clean and tidy state and will treat your home and pets with the love and care as if they were my own.

As I have been house-sitting on and off, for over 4 years now I feel I understand the needs of you, the home-owner, in relation to the care and needs of your pets and home. I have found that good communication from the beginning has enabled both parties to get the best from the experience. I also like to think my house-sit pets love me too and seem to settle very quickly.

From dopey old black labradors to young springer spaniels, playful kitties to sleepy moggies and lots in between, here are some the photo's of animals I have recently had the pleasure of looking after.

Please do message me with any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you and your pets.

Warm wishes -

Jackie
