Hello, it is very nice to see there is a forum and community on this site. I’m enjoying reading through your posts. I am brand new to this website. I am on my first pet/housesit on Housesitters Canada, being charmed and chummed by Django!
For me the idea of housesitting is very attractive as a single woman, I love the company of pets, cooking and exploring places on a community level. I’m starting this adventure in my home province of BC as I currently have a rental in Burnaby as well as a studio space at the Langley maker cube. In the future I would like to travel to Scotland/ UK and I feel that this is an inviting and safe way to do it and will also give my family & friends peace of mind.
For years I have thought about tiny home living, possibly van life maybe a trailer. Now I think with the combination of housesitting I might be getting closer to moving forward in that direction. I’m middle-aged and my son is grown, hostel travel is no longer a way I want to travel although I enjoyed it when I was younger.
I just sent out some requests for references and then I will start applying to some local house sits. Nice to meet you all!
Carrie
