Safe house!
There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
53, School librarian
Hi, I'm Gareth and I'm 53. Until October I was a school librarian in Birmingham. I did that for 14 years and before that a nurse for 10 years. I've been in Australia for 3 months (and house sat for 5 weeks in south WA) and return on Feb 4th.
When I get back to the UK I will start looking for a job and a new place to live by the coast. House sitting seems like a perfect way to spend my time until I get sorted.
I love animals and have lived with dogs and cats at various points in my life. I've owned a house and looked after the houses of friends, family and places where I've lodged. I am kind, considerate, caring and trustworthy I can happily provide references.
An easy way to verify my identity and assure yourself of my good nature would be to look up the @SwanshurstLib TikTok or Instagram accounts and you'll see me being, by turns, both serious and silly.
I'm only looking to do this in the short term, for now at least, so please don't bother to get in touch unless you're looking for someone during Feb, March or early April.
