Why I want to house sit
I want to spend time in different places; not just travel through. I like having a change of scenery and exploring different cultures.
My experience
I've been house sitting for many years. I take excellent care of homes and pets. I also have good common sense. I have references of people whose homes and pets I have cared for over the years.

We were a little nervous about using Trusted Housesitters for the first time. But when we met Jill, our fears were put to rest. She responded promptly and came to our house to meet the pets before we left, which was great! She was in touch while we were away, even sending us photos of her walking and loving up the dogs. We will definitely use Trusted Housesitters again, and would not hesitate to ask Jill back!

Jill Waters has house sat for us for several years, 2 or 3 times a year. The fact that we have relied on her to care for our home, property and animals so many times speaks volumes about her reliability and ability to handle such responsibilities. We have acreage with ponds and forests which require a watchful eye during stormy weather and Jill has proven that she can capably handle emergencies like trees downing fences and ponds overflowing during heavy rains. We have cattle and a dog and she has cared for them as if they were her own animals.
She always leaves our house in the condition in which she found it ... as clean and tidy as when we left. I can recommend her without reservation and would encourage anyone who is in need of house-sitting services to take advantage of what she can offer.- Organised

manner in which cares for my home when I am away. I am actually disappointed when she is not available to house/pet sit my home. Jill leaves a small footprint: she lives quietly and she packs lightly. She is a non-drinker and non-smoker. She would never choose to entertain or to allow strangers into the home; she fulfills all requests with grace and an open willingness. She asks intelligent questions when she is not clear. Jill is in search of change and something new - housesitting is a perfect profession for her and I highly recommend Jill Waters without reservation. You will not be disappointed.- Organised

I first met Jill when she was a singer in a chorus I directed. Knowing she had a love for animals, I asked her to watch my two dogs in my home while I was on vacation. Jill took excellent care of the dogs, making sure they had plenty of attention and love while we were away. I didn't hesitate to ask her back the next time I needed a house/pet sitter. Jill always kept us updated on how the dogs were doing and I felt so comfortable knowing they were in her care. She is very professional, reliable, and easy to work with.

I am happy to write a letter of reference for Jill Waters. I have used Trusted Housesitters myself several times over the past few years and have become very familiar with the kind of people who make the best trusted house/petsitters. Jill meets the criteria to a T. She is mature, independent, trustworthy, loves pets and travel and has the requisite experience house and petsitting to understand exactly what is needed. Jill is also a "home-body", which means she will likely stay home with your pets and lavish them with attention a good deal of the time rather than just using your house as a place to stay while traveling. Jill is also very tidy and a home owner herself, so I am sure she will care for your home and leave it in excellent condition on your return
I have known Jill for over five years as we are members of the same Women's Chorus in San Diego. While I have not had Jill house/pet sit for us, she has stayed overnight at our house several times and vice versa. Now that she is a member of Trusted Housesitters, I would not hesitate to invite her to stay with our dog in the future.- Organised
