Freelance writer and editor
Hi there,
My name is Dan.
I am a 36-year-old Canadian freelance writer and editor currently living in Edinburgh, Scotland. As traveling is a hobby of mine, I have been interested in the concept of house-sitting for years, but my previous career didn't afford me the time. Thankfully, that has all changed, and I am constantly on the lookout for new adventures.
I have been traveling solo since the age of 16, so I am no stranger to being on my own for extended periods of time. I grew up with animals, all types of animals, from dogs and cats to lizards and bats (yes, I actually had a brief stint where I looked after an injured bat). In my late teenage years, I worked as a landscaper and still garden to this day as a hobby — if you have a garden, all the better!
My ideal day would be getting up early, caring for the animals, writing during the day, and relaxing outside with a bottle of wine in the evening — with the animals, of course.
So, If you are looking for a trustworthy, tidy, caring, and reliable house sitter, then I am your man.

Dan and Monika were ideal housesitters! They truly respected our property and cared for it as if it were their own home. Dan communicated frequently and asked questions as necessary. When we arrived home, the house was clean and tidy. Indoor and outdoor plants were quite happy. My husband and I recommend Dan (and Monika) to care for your home without reservation or any hesitation. They are conscientious, energetic, mature, and trustworthy.

Dan est un super gardien de maison! Il était soucieux de bien connaitre les besoins des animaux et il n'hésitait pas à me poser des questions. Mes animaux était heureux avec lui. La maison était très propre, il avait lavé les draps, les serviettes et bien rangé. Je le recommande sans hésitation! Thank you veru much Dan!

Dan & Monika were great pet sitters and looked after our lodge well. Our dogs Islay & Dana were well looked after and Uisge the parrot became a great pal entertaining them during their stay. They left the lodge in perfect condition and would be welcome back anytime. We would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a contentious couple to look after their home and pet family.

Dan et Monika sont des personnes très sympathiques et respectueuses des lieux. Mon chat Hippolyte s'est très vite senti en confiance, et semble avoir été particulièrement chouchouté ! J'ai retrouvé mon appartement dans un état impeccable. Je les recommande vivement, et espère les revoir un jour.
