About
Hii! I’m a Latvian exchange student currently living in Portugal until the beginning of February. For now, I’m based in Santarém, but I absolutely love exploring new places, experiencing everything Portugal has to offer!
I’m cheerful and collected person with an open mind and a positive attitude towards life. I love meeting new people, experiencing different cultures and making the most of every opportunity.
I’m also very reliable and respectful of other people’s spaces. I adapt easily to new environments and always try to make the people around me feel comfortable.
For me, house sitting is a lovely opportunity to explore Portugal while helping someone feel at ease knowing their home and beloved pets are in good hands :))
Experience with pets & homes
Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up in the Latvian countryside, surrounded by animals. Back home, we have sheep, rabbits, chickens and other farm animals, as well as our beloved Latvian Hunting dog and a cat. Taking care of animals has always been a natural part of my everyday life.
On top of that, I worked at a mini zoo for three years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including exotic species and many other furry, and not so, friends. This taught me a lot about responsibility, patience and understanding different animals needs and personalities.
Being around animals has always brought me so much happiness, and since I’m currently living abroad, I really miss having my four-legged friends around. House sitting would be a lovely opportunity to reconnect with animals and give them all the love, attention and care they deserve!
Other than that, I can water plants etc., keep everything clean, follow any specific instructions and send updates so homeowners can enjoy their time away with peace of mind :))
