Hello,
My name is Nathalie and I have been house and pet-sitting on and off for the past 4 years. I work as a translator and I am self-employed, which leaves me free to travel the world and look after your pets. As I also work while I housesit, I tend to favour longer sits. This means that I spend most of my time in your home with your pets and not sightseeing.
A little bit about myself:
I grew up on a farm in the South West of France, surrounded by farm animals (cows, chickens and rabbits). We also always had cats and dogs at home. I moved to the UK when I was 18 to attend university, and I lived there for over 10 years (London and Manchester). I studied languages (Russian and Spanish), then did a Masters degree in translation and interpreting. When I realised that my job did not require me to stay put, I started moving around and stayed in different countries for short amounts of time (18 months in Spain, 6 months in Canada, 3 months in Sweden, 18 months in Germany, etc.). I love this lifestyle but I also love being at home, which is why I enjoy being a house sitter so much.
Because of my moving around, I do not have pets of my own and pet sitting is the next best thing. These past four years, I used a different website and have just switched to Nomador. During those four years of house and pet sitting, I looked after cats and dogs, as well as animal farms (up to 30 sheep and goats at a time, as well as chickens), and even a rabbit. As a keen walker/hiker, I can assure you that your pets will not lack exercise with me :) I am very house proud and I can assure you that you will find your home in the same condition that you left it (or cleaner, as I was told by some of my previous hosts). Because I am just starting out on Nomador, I only have a couple of reviews available here, but you may check out the Facebook page I created for my "pet sitting services": https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100088516004854.
I'm happy to house/pet sit in cities and in the countryside. I do not have a vehicle of my own but I have a full clean driving licence.
Please feel free to contact me if you feel that my profile matches your needs! I'm always happy to have a chat :)

Nathalie était notre première expérience de home-sitting et nous ne pouvions etre plus satisfait de celle-ci! Tout s'est merveilleusement passé, des nouvelles regulièrement, une autonomie parfaite, un appartement retrouvé encore plus propre qu'à notre départ, des plantes en pleine forme et un chat au top comme si nous n'étions jamais parti! Nous vous recommandons vivement Nathalie si l'occasion se présente, vous ne serez pas déçus! Encore un grand merci à toi Nathalie, en éspérant renouveller l'expérience lors de prochaines vacances...

Nathalie s'est très bien pris soin de mes 4 chats et de l'appartement durant 2 mois. J'ai retrouvé mes animaux en pleine forme et sans stress, et un appartement impeccable. Nathalie m'a donnée des nouvelles régulièrement et nos échanges ont été très cordiaux. Je la recommande donc très sincèrement. Je suis ravi de cet échange qui a été une première pour moi. Merci Nathalie.
