Stress free

51, Self Employed

I am recently separated and taking time to explore the UK and the world. At 51 not many people get the opportunity to do what they should have done after school. My work allows me to work remotely so I am taking this opportunity to explore and meet new people.

I am a healthy person, I exercise daily, eat healthily and enjoy a quiet outdoor lifestyle. You can find me running, cycling or on my Stand up paddle board most days. I love walking/running with a dog, it is one of the things that truly fills my bucket.

As far as looking after your home, I am house proud. I enjoy keeping my home/environment clean and in order. I love animals, having had dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, fish and the list goes on in my life. I am a firm believer that animals are part of the family and give you more than they get...........

I am more than happy to get stuck in, not scared of work. I am accustomed to looking after animals, plants etc. I have stabled horses on DIY basis so mucking out and looking after farm animals would be a pleasure.,

Give me a list, let me know what you need done while you are away and I can assure you I will do my best to get it done as you would do it. I will look after your home and "family" members as if my own. I know how difficult it can be to leave them at home and truly relax while away. Feel free to check in whenever you need to while away.

I look forward to meeting and would be honoured to be given the privilege of taking care of your home and pets.

Absolutely 5+ stars for Maurice. What a competent, personable and confidence-inspiring house sitter! Maurice coped with unusual circumstances (snow, neighbouring farmer's cattle invasion and a major storm) without problem..We could not recommend him more highly to look after cherished pets and home and would welcome him back if he should ever wish to return.

Maurice was first class dog sitter. He looked after my French bulldog and was a pleasure to have his help. He took care of Dennis providing plenty of exercise and being a highly educated person he was very self sufficient and the process was effortless. Highly recommend and will definitely use again

Maurice was the perfect house guest, from good communication before arrivals, good handover and then just the right amount of photos of Scampi whilst we were away. House was left if a lovely clean manner. Scampi has never had so many walks, he will certainly miss the attention! Thank you and good luck with future travels and house sitting.

Thanks Ben and Alex. Give scampi and good cuddle for me please
Maurice is delightful, willing, helpful and responsible and we would have absolutely no hesitation is asking him to return. The three labs are looking incredibly fit so we guess he would have walked them every day, probably twice a day, and probably in all weathers. Many thanks Maurice, and for leaving the place so clean and tidy.

Thanks Alastair.
Maurice looked after my animals and home wonderfully while I was away. He was able to visit a couple of weeks before the sit to make sure we were all happy with the arrangements which was a bonus. He took great care of my elderly pony who needed extra attention and looked great on my return. The other pony, cat and the chickens were equally contented. When Maurice heard that my flight home had been delayed he offered to return to look after the animals, despite having already started his own ... MORE
