I'm an
Individual
Hi there my name is Scothia (“Scot-Thea”) Orr. I am a mature female, strong, fit, semi-retired Registered Nurse with recent house-sitting experience with references. I have done winter checks on summer homes. Long and short term animal and plant sitting. My first career for 20 years was as a Cattle Ranch Manager and I have commensurate experience with cows, horses, dogs, cats, pigs, goats, sheep, chickens and other barn yard fowl. I am a flower and vegetable gardener and keep houseplants. I also offer the experience that comes with being a home and property owner which makes me an excellent problem solver.

My wife and I found ourselves in need of a caretaker to our Colorado residence during the ten months each year we were absent. Scothia Orr was referred to us by our friends at the Colorado YWAM base camp. She proved impressive from our initial meeting. We needed someone with the skills to diagnose and care for almost any problem that could occur in a remote mountain home. It brought us great joy to discover she had the skillset to either accomplish directly or manage everything from cleaning, purchasing, maintenance, repairs, organizing, securing contractors, etc. There wasn’t anything that came her way she was not capable of taking care of. She is an excellent communicator and has an enviable skillset of attention to detail. She is trustworthy and reliable, always following through with what she says she can do. My wife and I, without reservation, can recommend Scothia as a house caretaker or for that matter, anything she says she can do. Sadly, we sold our Eagles Rest Subdivision Colorado residence. Fortunate for us, Scothia was present to pull many of the pieces necessary to sell the house and vacate upon its sale. She became more like part of the family than a property caretaker.

Scothia Orr was referred to us as someone who could look after our mountain cabin in the Cimarron Valley because of her reputation of being full of integrity, reliable and resourceful. These days sometimes this feels like a rare quality trait, so we were delighted to employ Scothia to look after our place, particularly because up in the mountains you need someone who you can rely on to spot any issues and be resourceful to resolve them. Our experience was consistent with the recommendation we received on Scothia. She faithfully checked our cabin on a regular basis, paying attention to details and followed up by emails keeping us fully informed. We were at complete ease with her looking after our place and we were sad to see her move on. As a result, we would wholeheartedly recommend Scothia to anyone for any kind of responsibility or role in looking after any kind of property. Please feel free to contact me for additional details.
