Yorkshire Jane

66, Retired

Hi, I'm retired from a long career in university careers advice and guidance and, more recently, as a food taster with a local non-meat food company.

I was inspired by a house/pet sitting friend to give it a try and have loved all of the sits I've done so far! I love going to new places and like animals so it seems a good way to combine the two! I'm focusing mainly on cats as I'm not experienced or confident with dogs. However I'm happy to look after chickens and other small pets too.

I had my own beautiful cat for many years and was brought up on a farm where collecting eggs and feeding chickens was a typical job!

I'm considered a very friendly, responsible person and know how to look after a home (my Airbnb feedback always says I leave my room immaculate!). I've also looked after my friend's cat in her home and another friend's very old tortoise.

What else - I am a keen cyclist, love reading, cooking, live music and travelling

I look forward to meeting your lovely pets and going to some new places in 2024/5

Jane was great looking after our cats. She was really good at communicating before she came so I was always confident she was coming and we had lovely updates when we were away. The house was clean and tidy when we got back and the cats were happy. I would absolutely recommend her.

Jane took brilliant care of our cat while we were away for the best part of a week. She kept in touch throughout and really made a fuss of Pan. Would definitely recommend!

Jane conducted a house sit for us covering a short break. It was initially meant to be for 4 days but following our flight home being cancelled at short notice we had to change plans and fly home on a different day. Jane offered to stay an additional night if need be, to allow us some flexibility which we were very grateful for. In the end we came home a day early and again, Jane was very flexible and was ok to leave a day earlier than initially planned. She looked after our two cats with ... MORE

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
