55, Ex-Creative Writing Lecturer

I have been a full-time house- and pet-sitter since 2023, travelling throughout the UK and spending time with a variety of wonderful animals. I began housesitting as a way to travel while taking a sabbatical from my work as a creative writing lecturer, but I loved the way of life so much that I decided to continue. I no longer work as a university lecturer, and instead spend my working time caring for others as a live-in carer. I feel I have much more balance in my life now, exploring new places while caring for people, pets and houses.

She came night before I was due to depart and I forgot she was here to house and pet sit.. felt like she was an old friend come to supper! She was super efficient taking notes about everything... she sent lovely photos of walks with pugs and kept in touch daily with their adventures. House was absolutely immaculate when I got back late with porch lights on. Animals all happy and healthy... ... MORE
