Hi my name is Jessie. I am a mature, responsible and respectful person who has life experiences including long term care for my dog, home ownership and consistent employment. I have taken a break from my usual life as I am also a keen traveller. I love music, yoga, being outdoors, learning, nature and of course animals of all kinds. I am easy going, quiet, tidy and patient.
Why I want to house sit
I have taken a break from my usual life for some exploration though when I travel I enjoy spending time to experience things more like a local rather than always as a tourist. I enjoy home environments and the things I miss when travelling are the things that homes provide. I also love the opportunity to care for pets as I haven't taken a new pet since having my old dog though I enjoy and miss the mutual companionship and know how precious pets are to us as owners. It would also bring me happiness to help others to have their pets and homes cared for during their absence, as I understand how difficult it can be to go away from these responsibilities even if only for a short time.
My experience
Since starting with Trusted Housesitters in 2017 I have completed several sits. This has included caring for a mix of dogs, cats and poultry, sometimes with several pets, sometimes with only 1 or 2. I have completed sits in a variety of locations including urban areas as well as village areas and in homes large and small.
Prior to house sitting I have spent the last 20 years living in and caring for my own home. During that time I also cared for my beautiful dog for her life of 17 years which gave me lots of joy and contentment. I used house sitters sometimes while away and remember how particular I was to be sure my dog would be well looked after. During my life I have also cared for other small animals including fish, birds, frogs and spent time with family cats. I also enjoy being outside and love to spend time in the garden. Before taking this time away I worked in shelters for young people who are homeless for approx 20 years, nearly 10 of those as a manager. As a result I have lots of skills for interacting with people, being flexible and responding to all sorts of unexpected situations as well as for maintaining a property in a safe, secure and hygienic way. As I am fairly new to house sitting I am still building my experiences and references and have included references from people who know me including my employer to give information about my abilities and personal characteristics. I hope to hear from you soon.

Jessie did a fabulous job looking after Hindsight. He was really relaxed and happy with her and she stayed in contact to let me know that everything was ok.
She left the house clean and tidy which I also really appreciated.Jessie did a fabulous job looking after Hindsight. He was really relaxed and happy with her and she stayed in contact to let me know that everything was ok.
