I'm a professional english woman who has lived and raised children in Norway as a single mother. I now work as an executive coach and consultant and having my own company leaves me free to travel and work from any location. I am a tidy, clean person and a non smoker. Having grown up in Oxford I met many people from all over the world and it opened my eyes to what a fantastic world we live in. It gave me the want to learn about other cultures and explore new places, especially finding the small hidden away places that locals use. I have a deep respect for others and their property including cars and bikes. Having been a pet owner all my life I have an understanding of what it is to have a cherished pet and what it means to have somebody care for them.
Why I want to house sit
I love travelling and I'm able to travel and work from any location. I like to meet the locals and experience the local culture as much as possible and prefer to live in a home rather than a hotel. My children live in various places all over the world and I have friends who live globally. Moving around gives me the opportunity to meet some of them and hopefully make some new friends. Looking after pets and other peoples houses gives me a base to work from and companionship while exploring. I've always had pets at home, cats, dogs, fish, chickens, ducks, gerbils, and I love having pets without the complications of having to stay in one place now my children have moved on.
My experience
I have house sitted for friends on many occasions. I have been house sitting in Norway and London. I have always had my own dogs and cats and other small animals and pets. I often look after others pets when they are away to fill the gap in not having my own at the moment.

Ann arrived the day before we travelled and so got to know us before we left. She was instantly warm and kind with our dog and I enjoyed her company. She kept in regular contact while we were away and send photos everyday! When we returned the apartment was clean and and tidy. I would happily recommend Ann and would be more than happy to have her house sit for us again!

She very quickly became self sufficient. We, all our pets and overlapping visitors befriended her immediately.
Ann was not phased by the requirements or supervising our relatively new live in house keeper and 4 month old kitten!
We received regular photos of clearly contented dogs and cats, while Ann enjoyed working from home and some of the sites Cyprus has to offer.
We highly recommend Ann for any pet/housesitting requirements and hope she will come back again as our guest!- Organised

When there were questions she messaged them in a concise way and they were addressed. I found her assessment of situations similar to what mine would have been under the circumstances. She was also incredibly flexible and gracious when we had unexpected deliveries while we were away.
The house was left in impeccable condition, and the cats were obviously loved. We'd have Ann back in a heartbeat!- Organised
