About me:
I am a "countryboy", having lived in a city so I know the best of both worlds, having a strong tendency towards the country life the older I get.
Early retired, aged 58, non-smoking, still working remote (freelance) as a lecturer a few weeks per year.
I always love(d) travelling and do so extensively, speak German (native), English, French and Spanish.
Have and can use my own car. I'm good at IT and housekeeping (living by myself in my own timber house), had my own cat and do well with any pets.
I'm looking for an opportunity to get to know an area and culture for a longer period, maybe even looking for a new home in the long run.
My experiences:
Did home- and catsit (communicated by another organization) in France in March 2022, March and April 2023 and in Italy in September 2022.
What can Ibring to the assignment:
My experience, loyality, maturity, curiosity, relaxed attitude.
I am new to nomador, but experienced with mindmyhouse, here are some of my testimonials:
These are testimonials that I've received from home owners.

Excellent sitter
Mike was very friendly and quickly fitted in to our cats routine. They both loved him including our shy cat. He kept the house very clean and tidy, and even watered our plants. Mike got on well with our neighbours and people in our local village. I would be very happy for him to sit for us again.

Fine Time for cats
Michael looked after our house and the cats for nearly three weeks. He is very relaxed, interested in the place and looked after everything beautifully. We'll probably have him again when he's free.

We left the house in good hands and the cat now speaks german!
I was a bit concerned that Mike would find the house too isolated as he was on his own but he seemed to appreciate the tranquility of the place. Sandy (our cat) took to him immediately. Mike was on always reachable and ready to deal with parcels and sort out unpaid bills. We came home to flowers on the table and the house looking exactly the same as when we left - much appreciated! Mike is a discreet music lover, very easy-going, who I can thoroughly recommend.

Community opinion
Obergoms, Switzerland - June 2024
Michael looked after our cat and house for two months. He gave us regularly updates and was easy to reach. Even though the weather was bad and it even snowed he obviously enjoyed the stay. He is a friendly and reliable person.

Nous sommes partis l'esprit tranquille après avoir fait connaissance avec Michael, personne par ailleurs très conviviale. Nous avons reçu régulièrement des nouvelles et des photos de notre minette. A notre retour Leïka était en pleine forme, sereine, en confiance, comme nous l'avions quittée. Notre maison était très bien entretenue et bien rangée. Un grand merci à lui. Nous le recommandons à 100%%.

Michael est une personne à qui l'on peut faire confiance ! Il a pris soin de nos cinq chats, nos plantes vertes et de notre intérieur avec compétence et diligence. A notre retour après plus de six semaines d'absence, nous avons retrouvé notre chez nous impeccable ! Michael est une personne agréable, autonome, indépendante. Nous ne pouvons que le recommander !
