Gerald looked after Janice’s home
I have known Gerald for over 20 years. During this time, he has done house-sitting for me on numerous occasions, proving himself to be responsible and reliable. In particular, he is very good at ensuring that any maintenance or repair issues are dealt with quickly and efficiently, while keeping me informed of proceedings. He is highly personable, thereby maintaining good relations with neighbours and self-sufficient, thereby able to adapt to different living conditions. He likes animals and is a diligent carer.
