Sean McC

58, Freelance Translator/Teacher

Hi,
I am an animal lover (especially dogs of all shapes and sizes, though fond of cats, horses and more or less any creatures really), and am looking to stay in the UK during July and August 2024, possibly longer, combining taking care of someone's pets with working online and hopefully getting in a bit of nice walking too. I live in Spain most of the time, but have tended to spend recent summers back in the UK, visiting friends and family, sailing, walking, etc. I had a few sits through this site last summer (reviews below), as well as others in Spain, and I have a good amount of experience looking after animals, having had my own beautiful Samoyed/Belgian shepherd-cross for many years, and as the go-to person among friends and family when a dog/cat-sitter is called for. I'd be more than happy to provide any information about myself you might need (within reason!). My son, who adores animals and who also has plenty of experience handling big dogs, may be with me for some of the time in the summer, though obviously he would only come on a house sit with me if that were previously agreed with the owners. Please feel free to contact me even if the sit is outside these dates, as I may be available at other times, e.g. possibly Easter.

Sean was excellent with all the pets, Rosy loved going for long walks and the cats were very happy to have someone in the house with them. The house was in perfect condition. Would highly recommend Sean.

Sean has been a fantastic sitter, he clearly adores dogs and wasn’t phased by the size and character of our flat coat! He was great at communicating prior to the sit and during the sit sent photos and videos which was very reassuring! He left the house very clean and tidy, a perfect house guest. Thank you, it was so reassuring going away with someone confident looks after your dogs!

Really loved having Sean to cat-sit for us. He left the house clean and tidy, took good care of our cats and communicated well throughout. We’d have him back anytime. Highly recommend!

Firstly, I would just like to say a Hugh thank-you Sean for looking after our home and doggies. We really couldn't have asked for more, loving, considerate and kindness throughout your stay. Our house was left clean and tidy as was the gardens were emaculate. If your lucky enough to get a request for him to stay, we would recommend you snap him up!
