Why I want to house sit
I love to travel and house sitting allows me to be in an area for a longer period of time to explore the neighborhood, the culture and the sights. I enjoy meeting people and making new friends. Having dogs and cats to love and care for is such a joy! All my house sitting experiences have been very rewarding & I am looking forward to many more positive experiences. I prefer longer terms but will certainly consider short term as well.
My experience
Maturity & Experience. I have been a home owner, looked after revenue properties and managed homes for others & so am familiar with what is involved in looking after a home and caring for pets. Recently, I cared for pets and homes in White Rock, Victoria, Vancouver, Squamish, & Saskatoon Canada.
Pet sitting has also allowed me to travel internationally. During 2015, I enjoyed house and pet sitting in Europe (Ireland, England & France) for 6 months. 2016 I had such lovely sits in Nice, Rome and Barcelona and Auckland, New Zealand in 2017. In the Caribbean, I looked after a home and also managed rental houses for clients. I would treat your home with respect and look after it as if my own.
I am experienced with pet care having owned dogs and cats in the past (plus bunnies, budgies, hamster, fish as a child) and have also taken care of others’ pets. From Dec. 2012 to 2018 I am fortunate to be booked full time for the entire five and 1/2 years, as folks asked me to return for repeat sits.
I am reliable and trustworthy. I can provide a spotless background check from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police as well as excellent personal references upon request. I am available to communicate via Skype, email or telephone and look forward to hearing from you to discuss how I can meet your needs.

Eileen looked after our Cooper and house for over 4 weeks while we went travelling - and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect house sitter! She was amazing with Cooper, treated our home like it was her own, incredibly reliable and checked in with us regularly. If I could chose Eileen every time we went away - I definitely would. I can’t recommend her enough!

Eileen recently housesat for my two cats in Barcelona and was exceptional. She was attentive with them, sent me daily updates, and even provided tips on alternative cat care. I returned after a week to find a spotless apartment and happy felines. I highly recommend her.

Eileen took wonderful care of our Boston Terrier and three cats for 8 days this October. All the animals loved her immediately - even our most suspicious kitty warmed up to her by the second day. She spent lots of time with the animals and even took the dog to the park. She sent us updates and pictures, and we felt perfectly at ease with her in charge. And to top it off, we came home to a spotlessly clean house. We would have her back anytime! Many thanks!
