Would you like someone you can trust to look after your home so not to leave it empty? Walk your dog/s ? Feed your cat/s ? Water your plant/s ? Bring in your mail ? I am looking for a house to sit while I am in transition. I can provide you with excellent house sitting/ pet sitting references. I am also a professional domestic cleaner, with the option of cleaning and even deep cleaning your home so it could be an even more pleasant to return home to. Imagine that after a holiday away.

The best situation is one where we can help each other :)

I am available for long term or short term , ASAP.. Thank you.
