I am an independent and easy going lady, 66 years young, with a deep love for cats , flower and vegetable gardens, interesting places to visit and explore. I have had my own house, garden and cat caretaken by sitters many times, as well as looking after others myself. Currently I am free to travel, and I'm pursuing various studies including animal communication, at leisure. I love to keep a home clean and all animal and plant inhabitants happy !

Why I want to house sit

I am seeking places to be settled in short term while I explore my options for where to reside next. I appreciate very much a home base, as I can better establish my own routines of self care and focus along with the household and animals. Cat company is delightful, and I miss this since my own beloved feline passed. I have lots of experience with gardens and houseplants, enjoying their company too.

My experience

Various homes with cats and gardens to caretake, up to several months at a time, occasional extra animals on a farm. I have owned my own property and rental properties, and have sublet as landlady and tenant. As a Real Estate Sales person I have a broad perspective on respecting and cherishing property. I have extensive experience with special needs cats, including fostering, plus volunteer work with animal sanctuaries in Africa, and the SPCA in Canada, loving every minute !

    We were lucky to meet Roberta, who is a real cat lover & capable, trustworthy, well-traveled citizen of the world. She took great care of Kitty & our home for 10 days in February 2018. Her experience living on Salt Spring Island in the past was certainly useful for her (and for us), and she even went so far as to drop and pick us at the ferry terminal. Roberta is simply a great person. We look forward to getting to know her better!

    Roberta took care of my 6 cats like they were her own. I had no qualms about leaving them in her care. She came and helped me out before I left and was there to assist when I came back. I would not hesitate to have her here again and feel like I have found a new friend.

    Roberta has been a wonderful house sitter for me over many years. Not only house sitter, but as I had a farm and farm animals she happily undertook the tasks related to the care of chickens, ducks, two horses and a small herd of cattle and gave loving care to my old cat. A large kitchen garden received her detailed attentions (and improvements!) as well. She always leaves everything sparking clean and well attended. She has a magical way of enlivening every space. She is trustworthy, reliable and a real asset to any household.

    Roberta has looked after our house and two cats in the past, and is a careful, responsible and respectful person who goes the extra mile to make sure that everything is well cared for. She even watered and cared for our garden, which was not part of the brief! She is reliable, scrupulous about cleaning and thoughtful about how the house owners and their pets like to be cared for. Highly recommended!
