Loving, Caring Retired Flight Attendant
About Carol & William
As a retired flight attendant I am available to sit as a single or with my retired husband. We have both been home owners all our adult lives, are nonsmokers, quiet, clean and respectful of others and their property. I treat homeowners' pets as if they were my own.

Why we want to house sit
As a retired flight attendant I still have lots of wanderlust, love to travel, explore new areas and meet new people. After years of staying in hotels I prefer to experience the local flavor and culture. I am flexible and easily adjust to change and new situations.
Our experience
As a retired flight attendant, I realize safety for your home and pets is of utmost importance. I am flexible, stay calm in emergency situations and am able to handle any situation with ease.
As for pets, I have owned cats and dogs all my life. I now have an adorable toy poodle. We have rescued 3 dogs so know to have empathy and understanding for any unusual behavior and not to force myself until they are comfortable. Since retirement I do pet care, dog walking and house sitting. I am accustomed to administering monthly medications. I talk to the pets so they can become accustomed to my voice. You can relax and enjoy your time away and be assured your house and pets will receive lots of love and care just as if they were my own.
I also enjoy yard work, and have a good knowledge about the care of flowers and vegetables.

Carol took care of my dog, Moxie for 10 days, while I was out of the country. She was absolutely amazing, lavishing so much love and attention on Moxie that she barely knew I was gone. Normally, when I've boarded her, she has lost weight because she was too anxious to eat. This time, Moxie was in great shape, clearly enjoying the extra walks, pats and treats Carol gave her. Carol texted and emailed me at least once a day, often including photos of Moxie clearly very happy with her new caregiver. The house was spotless as well. I couldn't have been more pleased with Carol as a petsitter and recommend her wholeheartedly!

Carol has told me about Trusted House Sitters and her interest in being approved as a sitter in your service network. She asked me to serve as a personal reference and I am pleased to provide the following.
If have known Carol for more than 25 years, first when she was a travel advisor/agent for my company, through her many years as a flight attendant, and now in her creative new business providing personal support services to individuals and pets. Carol is a highly responsible person, dependable, honest, adaptable, and exercises solid judgment. I trust her totally. She enjoys meeting new people, exploring new places, and likely has more wanderlust than most, which I think has drawn her to explore your service. I have no doubt that if she accepted the assignment to house sit for your clients, that she would do her best to meet the expectations and preferences of those homeowners and would take pride in doing so.
In my professional life I am Sr. Director of Government Affairs for a gas heating equipment manufacturer and take very seriously the responsibility of providing a reference for anyone and have no reservation in recommending Carol to Trusted House Sitters. If you need any further information, please let me know.
Sincerely,
Sue W- Organised

Hello- my name is Sandra and I would like to offer a reference for Carol Shiek. Carol has been pet sitting for my two pups for nearly a year now. Carol is responsible and dependable. She comes for visits on time and makes sure my dogs are well cared for. She has provided mid day walks as well as complete care when I travel or take vacation. She handles feedings with ease. She will exercise my pups with walks or playing fetch. She cuddles with my 11 year old to provide him the attention he needs. I would highly recommend Carol as a pet sitter she is caring and compassionate and treats my pups like her own. I enjoy that she gives me daily updates and includes pictures to put me at ease that they are receiving care while I am out of town. Carol is Top notch !!Feel free to contact me with any additional questions.
