About Stephanie
Traveler first, strategist second and Earl Grey addict third, I'm enjoying life around the world as I channel my corporate skill set and passion for helping others into my own business.

Traveler first, strategist second and Earl Grey addict third, I'm enjoying life around the world as I channel my corporate skill set and passion for helping others into my own business.
I've lived in 8 countries and have been location independent for a decade, experiencing culture as a local and falling in love with the land everywhere I go.
My favourite countries are Mexico, Australia and parts of the US, although more recently I've developed a passion for the UK since my parents moved away from London and into the countryside!
I never leave home without my kindle and yoga mat. Oh, and my laptop of course!
Why I want to house sit
The downside of location independence is... no pets! I love being around animals. They bring a special energy to the creative process, are excellent buddies and they take you on great walks. They bring so much joy, and caring for them makes my heart happy. They help me maintain a work-life balance for which I'm truly grateful.
My experience
Mad about dogs and lover of independent felines, I grew up with a joyful labrador who I cared for from 11 weeks old until 13 years old, have cat sat 6 brilliant cats, and had 9 official house sitting assignments in the UK, USA and Canada.
I would have to say I am a dog person through and through but cats love me for some reason and I've come to love them back!
I adore small pets like rabbits and since I'm very tidy I actually find cleaning out cages etc very therapeutic; it's so nice to keep their space clean and tidy for them.
Most of all I just love the unique relationship you can develop with each animal - so special and so fast because they are just bundles of unconditional love.

Stephanie was a fabulous house sitter. She looked after Tess and Lola (our dog and cat) for two weeks in August 2017. Stephanie was great at keeping in touch, sending us messages and photos every few days. Tess, our dog, had a flare up of an existing skin condition which Stephanie dealt with really quickly and proactively - it's been managed for a while so I hadn't mentioned it to her, but she got in touch as soon as she noticed a change and made sure Tess had the medication she needed to control it. I was really impressed with how caring Stephanie was towards our pets. She's a really warm, friendly person and we felt absolutely comfortable leaving her to look after our pets and our home. And she'd bought flowers when we got back, which was the cherry on top!

Despite suffering from extreme hay fever for most of her stay, Stephanie looked after Freckle and Rascal to the letter. She sent photos and a video and kept us informed throughout. It was unusually hot for our area and Stephanie made sure the dogs kept in the shade - they liked to keep close to her under the table when she was working outside. Stephanie is vivacious, caring and very capable and we can recommend her highly.
