The Perfect Choice ^^

29, Science teacher and ecologist

32, civil Servent

Hello ^^

Background and motivation:

After 3 years of teaching science in school, I now work remotely online and travel to assist with conservation and wildlife research projects around the world! This is all great fun and experience but I do need to save for a home of my own somehow :D

As the 2nd oldest sibling of seven, and having worked in education, I've had plenty of practice keeping on top of any messes. I'm a well organised and tidy person, so no need to worry about cleanliness whilst your away :)

Pets:
In addition to my degree in zoology, experience as an ecologist and researcher, I come from a pet loving household; dogs, cats, rabbits, tortoises, fishes ect! So safe to say that I am comfortable with all animals. And have a lot of experience handling animals and making sure they're in good health.

Plants:
I have a passion (some might say obsession) for houseplants and have kept my own allotment in the past. So not only do I know the 'do's and 'donts' of watering, I'm pretty handy with pests and other aspects of plant health.

Lifestyle:
I'm a very caring, patient and logical person; I practice meditation, yoga and have kept a journal for several years now. In addition to this I now work for an online school, so have the privilege of working remotely on self governed hours teaching secondary science. This leaves me able to adapt to the needs of those around me/ take advantage of good weather :)

I love the outdoors and everything nature. So much so that I have my own micro-camper van. So I'm more than happy to explore the outdoors with an animal companion or two!

I'm a good communicator and very familiar with several forms of mobile or online communication; I will let you know promptly if there are any concerns.

Thank you for taking the time to read all about me! I hope to hear from you soon.

Your perfect sitter,
Javaan

Very pleased with housesitters Javaan and Thomas. They communicated well and responded promptly to messages. They let us know our pets were doing well whilst we were away and left our house very clean and tidy. I would be happy for them to house sit for us again and would recommend them to others.

Javaan & Thomas took great care of our cat & house - we returned to a very content cat and lovely clean house. Communication was good throughout; including having a call beforehand to meet each other and discuss the sit. I would definitely ask them back for future sits and would highly recommend them!

Javaan and Thomas were fantastic - very responsive to messages and so considerate. From the photos they sent they were having a really lovely time with my cats. They also left my place so beautifully clean - would have them back in an instant
 
CHARLIE (Nottingham England, Jun 2024 - 5 nights)
This was our first experience of leaving our house and hounds in the hands of a sitter, so we were a little nervous. However Javaan made this easy throughout with prompt and professional communication from start to finish. He provided us with regular updates, and it was wonderful to return from our trip to see our beloved pets in such fine fettle and the house spotless. The garden I'm sure looked better when we returned than when we had left. We would not hesitate to recommend Javaan's services ... MORE
