Fiona

I am an experienced and adventurous woman, born and raised in London, with family in the U.S. and beyond. Throughout my life, I have embarked on numerous journeys, both for work and personal enrichment, immersing myself in diverse cultures and communities around the globe.

Coming from a family that cherishes animals, I discovered a passion for caring for others' beloved pets when I left London to explore the world in 2005. Upon returning to Cambridge in 2007, I had the privilege of working for the directors of the University of Cambridge, a Member of Parliament, and managing events for a stately home.

The global economic downturn in 2008 prompted me to reevaluate my path, leading me back to education. In this pursuit, I successfully completed a BA (Hons) in Writing at Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge. Fuelling my thirst for knowledge and adventure, I embarked on further international travel and engaged in fulfilling housesitting opportunities until 2016. It was during this time that I relocated to Vancouver to undertake an MFA in Creative Writing, expanding my skills and honing my passion.

Returning to the UK in 2018, I embarked on a new chapter of exploration, venturing into regions within the UK previously unknown to me. The experience was incredibly rewarding, not only for the breathtaking landscapes but also for the friendships forged along the way.

Throughout my journey, I have house and pet sit in various locations, including Mexico, Los Angeles, Vancouver, Costa Rica, the Canary Islands, and numerous places across the UK. Each opportunity has provided me with invaluable experience, allowing me to adapt to different environments, follow specific instructions, and ensure the well-being of both homes and beloved pets.

If you would like to further assess my capabilities, I am more than happy to share further excellent references with you via email. These references serve as a testament to my reliability, trustworthiness, and commitment to delivering exceptional care while house sitting.

Note: I hold a UK driving license for automatic gears and I follow a gluten, dairy and meat-free diet, as much as possible.
