Eileen P.

Hi! I'm a retired technical writer, a wife, a mother, an animal and nature lover, and an avid gardener who loves to travel and see new places. At home I have a beloved cat and many houseplants. In the past I have also cared for fish, rats (fun!), and hamsters. I like reptiles but do not have much experience caring for them, so I would need detailed instructions.

My husband does not enjoy travel, so he stays home with our cat when I am away.

I am a non-smoker. I'm also an introvert, so I enjoy reading, weeding, walking, and other solitary activities.

I have a sister who I also travel with sometimes. It is possible I would ask if she can join me.

My ideal time away would be 6-14 days. My ideal places would be near large bodies of water, as a favorite activity is beachcombing. (Rain and cold are no problem for me.)

Thank you for considering me! Please feel free to ask any questions. I can connect you with people who know me and can vouch for my trustworthiness, including the person who wrote the below recommendation. I am also on Airbnb, where I have top reviews as a guest.

Regards, Eileen

*** A recommendation ***
I have known Eileen Pålsson for more than ten years. We have visited in each other’s homes and have even traveled together. Eileen is a remarkably competent person who cares very much for animals, as well as people. She goes out of her way to help those in need, even without being asked. To say that Eileen loves animals, especially cats, is an understatement. And animals respond to her warm and loving nature. She would be an ideal caregiver for pets, and a responsible person to look after someone’s home in their absence.
