WHY HAVE A HOUSESITTER WHILE I AM AWAY?

Give your home a "Lived IN" look while you are away.

* Defer burglars

The biggest risk factors for home burglary are poor security and low levels of occupancy. Burglars want an easy, risk free life and do not want to get caught. They avoid getting caught by taking great care to select the right home to break into. A pile of mail gathering, a pile of newspapers left on the driveway, dark, closed up house, curtains that never open or close... all signs burglars look for.

If you value your home and your possessions, you will make sure that these are well taken care of. By hiring YOUR HOUSE HOMIE, we can do just that!

Your empty property should always look occupied. We make sure that your house looks occupied. We not only make sure that your house is safe, but also look after the garden, the houseplants, the pets and even the children to your specifications.

ABOUT ME

I am a mother of 4 children: 2 boys: ages 30 and 28, and 2 girls: ages 21 and 17.

We had a foster dog: Jack, a Jack Russell Terrier
(pictured below right in a pink sweater)
and we currently have 2 dogs: Lucky Charm,
he's half cocker spaniel, half maltese
(pictured to the right cuddling with Jack),
and Champ, a catahula pitull (pictured below left) and a turtle.











We had a cat for 19 years. In past years, between our 4 children, we have had birds, cats, hampsters, gerbils, and many fish! We have house sat cats, dogs, fish, turtles, ferretts and snakes.

I have cleaned houses and house sat for over 25 years all over Florida.

I have cared for children since 1976, first working in a day-care center, then obtaining my Montessori teacher certification, teaching in the classroom, then owning my own Early Childhood Learning Center.

For 2 years, I owned a party events business: "PARTY WITH ME!" and was party events planner and coordinator which evolved into a personal assistant and life organizer job which I did for 2 years, then came full circle with me going back into being a personal assistant again for the last 3 years, along with house-sitting, baby massage, and swim instruction.

I am currently developing my WEDDING & EVENT Planning Business: A TIME 2 REMEMBER and my Professional Organizing business: The Organize It Coach

My 2 daughters assist me in my house-sitting business.
We are C.P.R. and First Aide trained.
