favoriteWhy I love house sitting

I'm not only interested in pet sitting to give your pets companionship, but in return your pets will give me companionship as well since I cannot currently have my own pet. I'm very independent and resourceful so I'm not opposed to being off the beaten path or even off-grid.

I retired from the US Air Force in 2016 as a Combat Talon II Flight Engineer. As a Flight Engineer, I was responsible for the safe operation of this $155 million aircraft during normal and emergency inflight operations conducted at altitudes as low as 100 feet.
I have traveled the world extensively and I continue to visit new destinations and re-visit destinations that I love to see again. I have lived in Ohio, Arkansas, New Mexico, Florida and my favorite place Japan. I plan to RV across ... Read more
I retired from the US Air Force in 2016 as a Combat Talon II Flight Engineer. As a Flight Engineer, I was responsible for the safe operation of this $155 million aircraft during normal and emergency inflight operations conducted at altitudes as low as 100 feet.
I have traveled the world extensively and I continue to visit new destinations and re-visit destinations that I love to see again. I have lived in Ohio, Arkansas, New Mexico, Florida and my favorite place Japan. I plan to RV across the country for months at a time and would like to augment pet/house sitting to recharge and recuperate. I'm very detail oriented, organized and meticulous. You will most likely not even know I was in your home when you return.

Pet care

I've had pets all my life growing up as a kid. Most of the pet sitting I have done was for my military family who had to be deployed or wanted to take leave for a while.

As a kid, I spent a whole lot of time working on my aunt and uncles farm in Ohio. They mostly focused on raising pigs, but still had cows, horses, chickens.

travelTravel plans

I'm constantly on the road and in no rush. If there is an opportunity for me to house sit instead of paying for hotels along the way, I don't mind exploring a new area for a few days. I will be traveling to TN, KY, OH, MI, WV, GA the month of June.


Review

Rod was a great house and cat sitter. Great communication about our leaving and arrival times that made exchanging the car at the airport work out well. Lucky the cat was happy and healthy upon my returning. Rod introduced Lucky to Cat TV. I never knew of it, but have now used it for entertainment for Lucky. Garden was just a few house plants but they are alive and well.
