I am a semi retired businessman who as a family man had every pet imaginable from Tortoises to Horses and Stick Insects to Budgies. My family are long grown up and flown the nest so I enjoy the travel aspect of pet/house sitting and meeting new people and their pets.

I am DBS certified.

I have a full Linked In profile.

I have been using Airbnb for business and pleasure since its inception with a 100% rating showing I understand how to care for other people's property

I have a full clean drivers licence.

I need only a good internet connection to be able to work.

I have been sitting since 2008. My career started indirectly after a few weeks sofa surfing after my divorce when a friend asked me to look after two aging cats on her annual holiday. Since than a variety of pets and homes have been under my watchful eye. I have completed 8 sits this year with another 4 already booked before Christmas.

Dogs are a particular favourite though I have only a cat at my own home at present.

I am calm around all animals and I am able to make decisions quickly.
