I have never done any tank sitting, though I do watch over a wide variety of reptiles and snakes for a couple in Beddington when they head out of town. Nothing has died on my watch so far.

I live in Coventry - I may need your services in June for a weekend

Nice and close. Keep me posted. For weekend help in Coventry I could certainly make two visits a day (AM and PM) if required, and I can manage a wide variety of critters and plants.

When/if the time comes, you should prepare a spreadsheet detailing all required tasks (with a places for me to mark off completion times and notes/observances), and we would need to go over it the previous weekend to ensure that I understood everything. Upon completion of my visit(s) I would leave the spreadsheet on the kitchen counter for you, so you could review it.

The spreadsheet may seem unnecessary, but it is a very good tool to make sure everything is done when it needs to get done.

There would be no charge, and while future reciprocation is absolutely not required, the consideration of future reciprocation would be nice.

I live in Canyon Meadows. I will need a tank sitter for July.

Seriak, I know what you mean. We also have a bearded dragon and a sugar glider, but luckily we have someone to look after them.

If, anyone knows of a tank sitter down at my end of town that would be great.

Normally I would help no problem but I am away most of July myself. Do you need someone for all of July or just a short period in July.
