About Raven Bailey:

Hello! 


If you need to travel extensively for work or play, I am open for long term house sitting gigs of 1-2 years in the Twin Cities Metro area. I will consider short term offers as well. Generally, I am willing to travel anywhere in the world to care for your home, pets, and/or farm animals. 

I am retired from my career as a probation officer so any background check performed will come back clear. Since retirement, I enjoy living a minimalist lifestyle. I love the outdoors and am quite active in many pursuits including but not limited to skiing (nordic/alpine), bicycling (year round), kayaking, yoga, and camping/backpacking. I have lived in the Twin Cities area for 40 years, raising my 2 children to become successful adults. I love traveling and pursue that passion whenever my schedule and budget allow. I now work PT as an event security officer to supplement my travel fund.  I love animals and would be happy to care for your fur baby(ies)! 

As a homeowner in the past, and as a single mom, I can handle most odd jobs that come up in your home but most importantly I will have a keen, trained eye on issues as they arise. I am neat, clean, organized, trustworthy, dependable and have great time management skills. I love to mow, shovel/snow blow, and I am willing to do small landscaping projects that match my skill level should that be required. I guarantee your home to be loved and cared for as if it were my own! 

I have done house sitting for several people via private referrals. I can provide direct contact information for references upon request.  Here are my references: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PJO1o8awvzTqk3Pjl5rD1qgpL-IrhpOazaPAgbmAlDo/edit

I look forward to connecting with you to see how we can best support each other's mutual interests.

Thank you for your consideration.

Raven

Bonnie Hansen

Homeowner in Minneapolis, Minnesota

I have house and pet sat for Bonnie on several occasions in the past few years--so that date is the farthest back I can list on this site. She has utilized my services approximately 1-2x/year. She is a friend of many years and can attest to my abilities and commitment.

Bonnie says: I trust Raven with my home and pets. I am confident that if anything comes up that needs extra attention she will handle it or reach out if need be. She always leaves my pets and my home better than when I left it.

Krista Porvaznik

Homeowner in River Falls, Wisconsin

Krista has hired me to house and pet sit for her on many occasions over the past 4 years (as well as previous to this date listed.) Her dog loves "auntie Raven" visits because I walk him daily and snuggle with him a lot. If the pooch could talk, he would give me two paws up!! She didn't ask me to but I made sure her driveway and walks were clear of 12" of snow before she came home.

Here's what Krista shares: Raven will leave your home better than you left it, and will care for your pet as if it is her own. Not only is she a consummate professional and impeccable with her words and actions, she brings much joy and humor to all she does. I have entrusted my children, pets and home to Raven's care, and am so grateful for her. She is a strong communicator, will help create clear agreements and live into them, has a strong work ethic, is totally dependable, and loves your home or pets up as much as you do. I will have her back again and again. I highly recommend her.

Ned Rousmaniere

Homeowner in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Ned and I shared his home for several years. I helped him organize and clean up his garage, did yard work, and painted. I shoveled in the winter and mowed in the summer. We also took care of the upper neighbors cat when needed. He will attest to the qualities I possess of cleanliness, organization, and dependability.
