About Susan

I'm available to look after and care for your home and be-loved pets and animals. Rest assured that if you decide to choose me for your assignment that I will care for your home and pets as if they were my own.

I am a responsible, friendly and reliable person, respectful of property and possessions. I am clean and tidy and will ensure that your house is always maintained to a high standard.

I am a non-smoker and drink alcohol very occasionally. I own my own vehicle (if in UK) and enjoy driving.

I enjoy different types of meditation and I find animals benefit from the calm atmosphere it creates!

Why I want to house sit

I am an explorer at heart and enjoy meeting new people and discovering new places of interest.

I've made it a priority to concentrate on the things in life that I truly enjoy doing. Which includes to travel, meet new people, discover new places and spend more time with animals - so house-sitting is the perfect choice.

For the past five year's - whilst being with The Trusted House Sitters, I have mostly been house-sitting in the South of the UK plus a few in Spain and Greece. This is mainly due to having family in East Sussex and my partner living in Hampshire, however, I do like to go further afield when the opportunity arises.

My experience

I love hanging out with animals - I've been around animals most my life. I lived with two dogs for 11 years but since they passed a couple of year's ago, I haven't been in a position to have more pets.

I am active and enjoy the great outdoors so you can be assured your dogs will have as many walks and playtimes as they need.

As a homeowner - I can appreciate what is needed in relation to looking after and maintaining a home. I am resourceful and can turn my hand to most tasks.

In my lifetime I have had many roles including: Therapist (Aromatherapist and Healing Touch Masseuse), CELTA Teaching English as a Foreign Language, Meditation and Mindfulness Facilitator, gardener, bookings facilitator, events coordinator, PA, Market Trader (jewellery and also handmade shoes), child-minder and I currently manage my own property in London which I rent out.

I am 100% trustworthy and would be more than happy to meet with you if possible or have a chat on Skype to discuss a possible assignment. Leaving your home and beloved pets in the hands of a stranger can often be daunting (both for you and your pets!) I understand this, and want to help make your break away as relaxed and stress-free as possible. I can assure you that your house, its contents and your pets would be well looked after in your absence.

You may have noticed that I have a couple of references that mention my partner, Andy. He lives and works in The New Forest but does occasionally join me at weekends and holidays - if this has been agreed with the home-owners in advance.

I am sorry to write this negative review. We chose Susan because of her excellent reviews. Unfortunately for us, Susan requested to leave our home 5 days earlier, and only gave us 48 hours notice. She told us that she has an opportunity to go to a yoga retreat for 2 weeks and doesn't want to miss it. We were luckily able to find someone to feed our cats, but the whole experience was stressful for us, having to organise someone to feed the cats while we were 1/2 way across Europe, where Internet connection was a real luxury. We were very disappointed in Susan's approach.

Susan was a wonderful house sitter for me over 4 nights and looked after our kitten and home beautifully. I felt totally reassured and comfortable having met her over a skype call beforehand and was able to relax and enjoy my break with the knowledge I had left it all in a safe and caring pair of hands!
