Friendly Caring Gentleman

72, Tai Chi Teacher/Retired

I am a retired gentleman, although still very fit (I teach occasional Tai Chi classes), For many years, I worked as a Community Development Worker and have good communication and organisational skills.

I now have the luxury of few commitments (except, of course, to my grandkids) and so am looking for more opportunities to travel and experience new places.

I have a long and genuine love of animals and believe they can be our greatest teachers of how to live compassionately and harmoniously.
I have owned dogs (Irish Setters, a Munsterlander and two rescue Lab cross) over the years and have also enjoyed many years of living with cats.
I have experience of looking after hens, ducks, donkeys and Breton sheep too for friends with a smallholding in Brittany while they travelled.
I am happy to groom and give medication when necessary.

I am a quiet, tidy and respectful person who understands the importance of looking after another person's home and making connections with both the animals and their owners.

I am a non-smoker. I have my own car.

I am new to House Sitters UK and hope to establish a good reputation with positive reviews.

We weren't able to meet Vince in person but despite that we could tell he is a very caring and friendly man. He took great care of our cat and home, and was really flexible and accommodating. His communication was brilliant throughout and he sent us daily updates. Would absolutely recommend and use again :)

Vince took fantastic care of our beloved Elsa! We came home to a clean and tidy home which was just as we left it and Elsa was a very happy content kitty 😺. Vince sent us regular updates and photos of Elsa which was lovely and ensured we could relax and enjoy our few days away knowing Elsa was in good hands 🙂. I would not hesitate to recommend Vince, and would gladly have him back to pet and house sit for us anytime. Thanks Vince 😊.
