House Sitter in Calgary, Alberta

I'm an
Agency / Company
Hello Home Owner, My partner, Renee, and I are interested in sharing our love for plants and animals in another house-sitting experience either short-term or long-term in Calgary. We don't currently have any pets. We are passionate about the environment, the outdoors, good food, and living a modest and experience-filled life. We like to travel and are very eager to get out into nature when we can. House-sitting allows us to get different perspectives on how Canadians live today. A little bit more about Tony and Renee: Tony is a playful, compassionate individual who likes to dip his toes into many different opportunities both professionally and personally. He is an author, speaker and workshop facilitator and enjoys connecting with people in his community. Tony is also handy with a construction background, speaks 4 languages, and loves to learn. Renee is a kind, caring individual who likes her adventure but also cherishes her downtime. Renee is beginning her career towards horticulture therapy and loves growing food and working with people. She finds that being with animals and in nature is very healing and gives her a sense of escape and grounding. We have been caring for a lovely home in Tuscany, Calgary since May 15, 2018, and our current housesitting contract concludes in May 2019. Check out our blog to see what we have been up to. www.oneyearoutofourelement.blog We will be available for our next house-sitting opportunity at the beginning of June. We look forward to meeting you and connecting!

I have known Tony for nearly four years. He is honest, reliable, smart, and helpful. He is also 'handy'. Your home will be in good hands.

We have been privileged to have Tony as a house sitter for the past nine months. He has successfully taken care of our home through summer's yard work season, winter's intense snow shoveling season and all things in between. Tony is responsive on the occasions that we have had to ask for favours from afar (couriering documents, handling mail etc) and is handy for taking care of small repairs that have cropped up. He has taken the time to get to know the neighbours to get a handle on the goings on in the community which is super important from a security perspective. He has cared for and loved our home and garden which has enabled us to be completely worry free on our travels. We have experienced great enjoyment when he has shared his successes with the vegetable garden. Big zucchini and lots of tomatoes are awesome! On the odd time that we have had to return home and take up the guest room, Tony has ensured that the house is ready to receive us, and makes sure to take lots of time to catch up so that our worry free status is ongoing. Tony is very conscious of his environmental impact, and keeps a close eye on the thermostat and water usage - better than we do, in fact. We could not ask for a better individual to take care of our home in our absence. He is responsible, responsive, kind and has personally inspired us outside of being an awesome house sitter.
