About Lena
Hi, I am a 61 year old woman named Lena. I am mostly travelling together with my twenty year old daughter Yrsa. Our daily life is on our small farm far out on the countryside, where we renovate, grow vegetables, chop our own wood and enjoy the nature life. We are non-smoking, non-drinking, responsible and caring people.

Why I want to house sit
The last two years we have had very good experiences of having travelling workawayers staying with us. That made both me and my daughter longing for some travelling ourselves. We have no problems at all having people staying in our home and we would love to stay in your place to look after your cats, flowers and whatever that need to be taken care of.
We both love Brighton UK, so in May-June we would like to go somewhere in that area. In October-November we would like to go to a warm place. No plans so far, just thoughts, so give it a try wherever you live.
My experience
We are experienced house and pet owners. Ever since I was a child I have been surrounded by animals. For six years I had a small dog hotel and dog care. For many years my ex-husband and I also had different kind of birds. (Right now Yrsa and I only have three cats, as we plan to travel now and then.)
We promise that you can go away and just relax knowing that both animals and home are being well cared for while you're away.

During the sit I had to come back to the UK for a day on business and came past the house to change. Whilst the dogs were pleased to see me they very quickly went back to sit right next to Lena - they really bonded and interacted with her. She loved them like her own, played and talked to them and even took our stroppy chihuahua Pumba along on walks with Daisy as well - something we don't normally do as he's such a handful - very impressed !
I had left Lena a long and very detailed list of instructions that she followed diligently and upon our return both our home and pets were in immaculate condition.
We would not hesitate to invite Lena to come and stay again and we give her an absolute platinum 10 star recommendation !!- Organised

They arrived exactly on time and upon meeting them I knew that they would be brilliant. I have one 11 year old labrador, Tia, and a large garden which needs quite a lot of attention.
There was contact and updates while I was away which gave me complete peace of mind.
When I returned Tia looked very happy and in wonderful condition. She'd obviously been very well cared for. Lena and Yrsa had really connected with her and she was very comfortable with them.
My garden was also looking super, better than when I'd left it in fact. I was very happy that Lena is so green fingered!
The house was also very clean and tidy and everything was just as I'd left it.
I was lucky enough to get to know Lena and Yrsa a little better as we'd pre-arranged that they would stay over for a night after I returned.They are very interesting people and I was glad to have the opportunity to have an evening chatting with them.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lena and Yrsa for any house/pet sitting assignment and I sincerely hope that they come back to Brighton again soon.- Organised
