I am preparing to "retire" from my current job in the Caribbean as of July, 2018. I am 66 and, gratefully, I am in super good health, vibrant and love to travel and experience new places. I plan to do some writing and I love to be outdoors, take long walks, explore, meet new people, and also relax and enjoy the local ambience. I am quiet, neat, thoughtful and respectful. I am a U.S. citizen, and have lived internationally for 9 years in the Caribbean. I welcome talking with anyone via Skype or other media to get to know each other prior to making an arrangement.
Why I want to house sit
I love to travel, experience new places and immerse myself in the local culture. Getting and giving some animal love while I travel would be a great bonus!!
My experience
Experienced as an owner of dogs and cats, I have taken care of friends pets over the years while they were away, but not recently as I have been working. I am "retiring" in July 2018 and want to travel to some places I have not yet been. House sitting and taking care of pets now fits into my plans. I do not have pets at the moment and I miss them, so being around others' pets would be great fun. I put them first and build my day around their needs. I am quiet, happy to be alone or with others, in very good health, love to walk and be outdoors, so dogs would get a lot of walking, fresh air and loving care.

I have been a colleague and friend to Barbara for over a decade. She is kind, empathic, highly organised, and extremely reliable. She has a knack of knowing what needs to be done in any given context, and acting on that, and is able to see situations from multiple perspectives. She demonstrates care and thoughtfulness in everything she does, and is completely trustworthy - I can't think of anyone I could trust more with looking after my home.
