About Pamela

Hi!

I'm Pam, a mature and reliable single woman from Vancouver, Canada and you can count on me to be your next pet and housesitter. I will take great care of your pets and will always be respectful of your home.  

I have taken care of cats, dogs, a rabbit, and even a rat. I've done this as a house/petsitter, as a foster parent for the Safe Haven Animal Sanctuary (while living in San Jose), for friends and coworkers in my own home, and through the Trusted Housesitters site. I was lucky enough to have a beautiful cat, Bluebell, when I was growing up and lots of adorable hamsters and guinea pigs throughout my childhood.

I am clean, responsible, and a non-smoker. My home is always neat and tidy and I will be equally considerate in your home. I have experience looking after gardens and performing basic yard work such as lawn mowing or snow shovelling, whichever the season.

I am employed full time as a technical writer for a software company and I work remotely. This means that I will spend quality time with your pets, helping them stay happy while you are away. My only requirement is a fast and reliable internet connection so that I can work. 

I love knowing that someone's pet is going to have an easier time while their owner is away because they get to stay in a familiar environment with someone like me who truly cares about their well-being and happiness. 

I would welcome the opportunity to care for your pets and home while you are away!

Pamela stayed at our home to take care of our cat and we really glad she did! She sent us photos and news everyday! Our cat seemed very happy and comfortable with her, we highly recommend her!

+10 years of experience
I have experience looking after people’s homes and pets through the Trusted Housesitters site as well as outside of the site. When family members travel, I often look after their homes and pets as well if they have them! In addition to taking excellent care of their furry friends, I perform basic outdoor maintenance such as mowing the lawn and watering and maintaining the garden and flower beds. If it’s winter and it snows, I shovel the sidewalks. I grew up with a pet cat Bluebell and numerous hamsters and guinea pigs, but I have not lived in a pet-friendly building for many years. When I lived in San Jose I lived in an apartment that allowed pets and I participated in the foster cat program through the Safe Haven Animal Sanctuary. When I did not have foster cats, I would sometimes take care of cats for friends and coworkers when they were out of town. I have been a renter for 25+ years and my landlords have always been very pleased with how I treated and maintained their properties. Whether I'm renting, staying at an AirBnb, or taking care of someone's home while on a sit, I always treat where I'm living with care and respect.
