Scoczech

54, University Lecturer

Hello,
I'm a part-time online university lecturer of anglophone literature and language. I moved online after Covid and am not going back to in-class teaching as I've made a new living writing educational guides and texts. Consequently, I am free to travel as long as the wi-fi holds!
I love pets and prior to returning to the UK last year I ran a bio farm in the Czech Republic and kept my beloved Weimaraner, Jura. Sadly she is no longer with us and so my heart has a space for your pets.
I'm reliable, fastidiously clean, and don't drink or smoke.
I had a previous career in the Police in the UK so I am pretty sure I can keep your property safe till you return.
I'm looking for peace to write and companionship with your pet(s).
I'd be happy to chat it through with you over Zoom or Teams.
AVAILABLE CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR 18.12-05.01

Colin provided us with reassurance from the start. He came to visit us a couple of weeks in advance of the sit to meet our dog, cat and chickens. The communications were great with photos provided whilst we were away. Our dog had a wonderful time with plenty of beach visits! The house was very tidy on our return, bed linen already washed and hung up! Many thanks Colin!

Colin did a great job taking care of our dog. The communication was great before and while we were away. He is a very confident person who instantly instills trust. This helped to put our minds at ease and enjoy our trip. The home was spotless when we came back. We highly recommend Colin.

Colin was an excellent sitter for our home and three furries. His communication was excellent right from the start and he kept us updated while we were away. The house was really clean and tidy to come home to. Highly recommended we hope to have him come sit for us again. Thanks Colin warm regards Ros and Jonathan

Coiin was a superb house-sitter in every way. His communication from the start was prompt and clear. He arrived exactly as agreed and took on our two enthusiastic labradors with enthusiasm and humour. The house was left so clean and tidy. Thank you. We enjoyed meeting him and hope to do so again soon.
 
KIRSTEEN AND ROGER (Lauder Scotland, Mar 2023 - 3 days)
We were very anxious about leaving our pets for the first time, particularly our energetic, mischievous, young Border Collie, Flo. We met Colin online and in person before making a decision. He filled us with confidence from the outset, quickly developing a rapport with Flo and Casper, our cat. He sent us messages and photographs while we were away and generally kept us updated. On our return, we found the house to be absolutely spotless, bedlinen and towels had been washed and dried, and ... MORE
