Hi! I am an experienced 43 y.o. housesitter with +10 reviews on MindMyHouse and several references from houses I cared for all over the world.

I have lived in Menorca in the past and would like to go back there for the month of October to visit a dear friend of mine. I dont have a preference of location, just need good wifi to keep on working remotely.

I don't work as one now but I am a veterinarian and I housesit mostly to petsit, so I can get my animal fix as being a nomad does not allow me to own pets.

I am free August 7th to Sept 5th and then again mid-late September to late October so if you happen to need a house sitter around those dates feel free to contact me!

Thank you!

Hello Paula,

I just have a couple of questions. How much do you charge for your housesitting services?

I have 3 cats and a small garden, but I also volunteer for the Protectora, which involves feeding 3 local feral cat colonies every other day.

Would you be willing to take on all these responsibilities?

Kate

Hi Kate! Thank you for your message and your interest in my services! 

To me, housesitting is an exchange so I don't usually charge for it, unless there are many many animals to look after or something extra such as farm work. The agreement is different with each house owner. Some of them pay for my tickets (right now I'm in Orkney, Scotland, and since it took 2 flights, a bus and a ferry to get here, the ouse owners covered part of that). Some others just leave me a fridge full of food or a tank full of gas. 

I usually only request good wifi and the use of a car if I'm in a remote place or a place with a rather limited public transport service. 

I'll send you a private message with my contact info so we can discuss more details and I can point you to my profile in the housesitting platform that I use. 

Best regards, 

Paula
