54, Public Health Specialist

I work as a Public Health Specialist in a local authority. I have spent most of my working life in the NHS, as a nurse, midwife, health visitor and public health manager.

I have two grown up daughters. I recently moved from Northumberland to the North West and am very much enjoying exploring this area.

I have lived in a rural area on a farm for most of my adult life. We have always had pets, labradors, cocker spaniels, working collies, cats, hamsters, ferrets. etc.
I have experience of puppies from birth.

As my daughters are now more independent I'm interested in travelling more and house sitting seems a good option to see a bit more of the UK and the world. When travelling on my own, house sitting provides a good balance of free time and focus. I really enjoy the company of animals.

I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, reptiles, ferrets, sheep, hens and ducks and some experience with horses. I am confident walking dogs, experience of up to 7 at a time.

I have cared for families and friends pets on a number of occasions in my own home as well as house sitting experience through this site. I have working experience of housekeeping.

I am capable, competent, reliable and tidy. I am used to managing a team of 20 + people and am able to problem solve in most situations. I will be respectful of your home and care for your pets and animals as I would my own, with calm and affection.

She was unlucky that one of the dogs had a stomach upset during her stay and she was unfazed and competent in dealing with this too. Plus, her communication was great (we loved getting ... MORE

Lisa is super friendly, easy to communicate with and organised. She looked after our house and pets beautifully for just over a week and we returned to a house that was cleaner and tidier than when we left. Lisa didn't have any previous recommendations on this site but after one telephone call and an excellent reference we knew we were leaving the house and pets in safe hands. I'd highly recommend using her and am so glad to be able to offer her her first reference on Housesitters. Lisa, we ... MORE
