Hello/Bonjour.... a single, mature male, who loves all pets, livestock, and poultry.
I have previously resided on a rural, three acre hobby farm, on Vancouver Island, for several years. Boarded a horse, raised poultry (layers and meat birds), also had goats, geese, and ducks. Two dogs, one a working livestock guardian dog (LGD), and five cats rounded out the menagerie.
I love to walk for my own benefits, and it's a special bonus, when I have four legged friends to join in. On a beach or mountain, in a forest, through a field, along the water, all bring joy!
Life experiences include banking/technology (retired), viticulture/winery, construction, and many active volunteer positions. I'm handy around house and property, with an ability to find creative solutions to any issues, with the full respect and trust, for your home.
Open to rural and urban locations, for any type of sitting required.
Passions include photography, cooking, gardening/horticulture /aquaculture. I have maintained multiple, large Koi ponds.
I do not smoke. Have had four Covid and this years flu, vaccinations.
Strong and fit, with abilities to work in any tough Canadian winter conditions and terrain ( I attribute to my Nordic lineage).
Tractor, safety certification and experience, including clearing snow.
I have canine obedience training experience with a true dog whisperer (she was magic with a pack!).
Looking forward to be of service, for you, and your very special animals.
I am also available for farmer respite services. Off site references also available. Passed multiple background checks in my volunteer roles.
Thank you for your interest in my abilities.
Namaste
Gord
