nomadic lady ex-lawyer

Retired solicitor

Organized, resourceful, enthusiastic, caring. DBS, ID. Own transport. Several years' experience (non-stop since 2015). Consistently 5* rated through this and another agency (13 reviews from the earlier one, would have been more but many sits were - and are - repeats). Looking forward to new ventures.

A house owner and a landlord, used to ensuring high standards. Would certainly be prepared to manage tenants/lets, both holiday and others.

Your home will be well looked after and clean and tidy on return.
Even groceries bought and a meal prepared. Plants watered, post sorted and messages taken, if that's your wish.
And your pets will be safe, cared for and happy, By now l tested my pet care skills on most types of animals except, as yet, donkeys and horses. All became friends almost immediately although one or two cats, Kipling-cat style, remained aloof for a day or so.

You will be in good hands.

It was an absolute delight to meet Anna, and to have her stay at our home, looking after our dog and green cheek conure. Nothing was too much trouble, communication was clear and thoughtful always, and our pets obviously had a wonderful time with her. Rio our parrot gave poor Anna a run around to start with, but the challenge was accepted! Lots of love and perseverance and she managed to coax him round to being friendly. Thank you so much Anna, it really was so lovely to meet you and I hope ... MORE
 
ANN (Alton England, Feb 2024 - 2 weeks 1 night)
I would have Anna back in a heartbeat. I have two cats one of which required daily dressing for an inoperable neck tumour.l and getting weaker. Initially I was going to cancel my ski holiday as I was so worried. I didn't need to be. Anna was confident and efficient. I was completely satisfied with the care she gave them.
 
ANGIE (Brockley England, Jan 2024 - 1 week 1 night)
Ania was lovely - she left our house in immaculate condition and our cat Cinni loved her. She was always prompt and particular in her communication with us and we felt so comfortable with her! I wouldn’t hesitate to ask her to sit for us again!
 
NIKKI (Cobham England, Dec 2023 - 3 weeks)
Anna stepped in at relatively short notice which we were very thankful for. Anna is a lovely lady who we loved chatting to about her adventures. She arrived the evening before we left which gave us the opportunity to have dinner and get to know each other a bit more as well as the chance to show her around our house, and of course introduce our cat - Bertie! We had a great experience with Anna - she kept us regularly updated on what Bertie was up to along with photos and looked after our home ... MORE
 
NATALIE (UXBRIDGE England, May 2023 - 1 week 2 days)
Anna arrived the evening before I left the following morning. I was very happy and totally relaxed to leave her to look after my dog Jonas and the house. On my return, Jonas was happy and well looked after. The house was probably cleaner than I had left it and everything was in perfect order. Anna was happy to meet with some if my friends in the village, when they saw her with my dog. Anna is a perfect house and dog sitter for anybody and I can really recommend her for any future housesits.
 
DAGMAR (Tewin England, Mar 2023 - 1 week 4 days)
We had a great experience with Anna. She is a lovely lady. Obviously very caring and thoughtful in terms of making sure everything goes smoothly for both the house owner and the pets involved. Anna is a great communicator and regularly kept me posted on how Pebbles was doing. Having had my other cat die just a couple of days before leaving I needed extra reassurance and Anna gave that to me freely. Anna arrived the evening before we left and that gave us the chance to feel relaxed ... MORE
 
JANE (Longfield England, Mar 2023 - 1 week 4 days)
Anna is a charming lady. I enjoyed chatting with her over lunch before we left, about life and her adventures. She was a great communicator and very efficient, was conscientious and took good care of our animals and left the house clean and tidy for our return. Could not ask for more. Many thanks Anna!
 
ALEXIS (Haywards Heath England, Feb 2023 - 1 week 2 days)
Anna did a great job looking after our Roxy (lab) and kept us informed on a regular basis during her stay.
 
MARIETTE (Amersham England, Oct 2022 - 2 days)
Anna is a friendly, resourceful, intelligent, interesting lady, competent and unfazed by things that crop up, drives a camper van which for a single mature lady I thought was impressive. Our dog liked her immediately and our cat who is unmoved by most humans made friends with her too. We had a chat on the phone before Anna arrived and she stayed in touch throughout the week. She agreed to come the night before we left so had a chance to familiarise herself with her surroundings which I ... MORE
 
KATE (Cambridge England, Oct 2022 - 1 week)
Anna is a very reliable and lovely lady who liked our cat Jack a lot. He's usually quite low maintenance cat but this time he decided he's a picky eater. So Anna persuaded him to eat his medication, played with him and took care of our home. We were chatting almost everyday by email and got very detailed descriptions about his furry health and appetite with pictures.
 
MARIA (London England, May 2022 - 1 week 2 days)
We had last minute travel plans over Easter that we thought would need to be cancelled, but Anna came to the rescue! She is very friendly, it felt like welcoming a family member at our home. She turned up when she promised and communication was great throughout the time. She took great care of our cat as well as the house. It was so nice to return for a happy cat and a sparkling clean house after our holiday! Thank you Anna!
 
REGINA (Newbury England, Apr 2022 - 1 week 2 days)
This was our first experience of having a House Sitter and Anna was clearly very experienced and helped me with what I needed to do. Very happy with the service that Anna provided; both dogs seemed happy on our return so I'm guessing they liked her too!
 
SUE (Bishops Stortford England, Feb 2022 - 4 days)
Anna looked after our house and our cat over the Christmas period while we were visiting family abroad. Communication with her was easy and she also was flexible with dates just in case our situation would change due to Covid travel rules etc. She sent us regular updates about our cat and how she was doing. When we got back, the house was perfectly tidy, the cat was happy and the plants thriving. We could really relax and enjoy time with our families knowing we had someone reliable and ... MORE

Anna was the perfect person to house and dog sit for us. We had to find someone at very short notice and Anna came to the rescue. She arrived the day before we went away and that gave us the perfect opportunity to show her the ropes and let her get to know the dogs. This reassured us and by the time we left the next morning we were completely relaxed about leaving them with her. She was very reassuring and calm and we felt we and our dogs were in safe hands. Throughout the sit she kept us ... MORE
 
HELEN (Higher Odcombe England, Oct 2021 - 2 weeks)
Anna was great, she turned up as planned and was very open and curious about our routines and dog care. She clearly loved our dog Pepe.She kept us up to date and waited until we got home before she left. I would highly recommend Anna.
 
JULIE (London England, Oct 2021 - 5 nights)
Ania was lovely. This was our first house sitting experience and she put us at ease the moment she walked through the door. We never had a moments concern about anything and she tolerated our neediness when we asked for unnecessary updates on Zola! We'd have her back in a flash.
 
NICOLETTA (Tonbridge England, Sep 2021 - 9 days)
Anna was a great house sitter. Unflappable, very accomodating and flexible with timings. She was smashing at co ordinating my friends arrivals to do the big stuff in the garden or to stay. After a rather stressful time away I was happy to come back to a house and garden in great shape. Really good communication. So if you want a safe, mature pair of hands to look after things, Anna is a fantastic choice.
 
ELSPETH (London England, Aug 2021 - 4 weeks)
Anna was a very efficient sitter, and my animals looked well looked after and happy on my return. The house was clean and tidy - dead flowers thrown out, and the kitchen was gleaming, for example. Anna sent me regular updates and photos whilst I was away, so I was able to relax completely without worrying. I would definitely recommend Anna to anyone looking for a housesitter.
