House Sitting
Aloha!
I'm a writer, photographer, and educator.
My websites are melisinestudio.com and melisine.com.
I can work from anywhere, so I was thinking it might be nice to explore somewhere new in Hawaii, after spending two years on Maui.
I’m asking friends if anyone might like a “house sitter." Please feel free to share with anyone you think could use a house sitter at all!
Below are glowing references from a selection of property owners for whom I have done house sitting and rentals
(contact info below).
I am COVID vaccinated and conscious of safety precautions and cleanliness.

Great peace of mind
"Mel is a dream to have in your home -- trustworthy, no stress, very capable.
She is lovely and considerate -- a beautiful soul.
She will take care of your home as if it was her own, which made me feel great peace of mind.
I have so much respect and appreciation for Melisine's work which is visual art that literally speaks for itself."

Excellent!
"Mel did house sitting in my upcountry home for several months.
She is a great and kind person.
She left my home and garden in excellent condition-- it looked and felt amazing when she finished her stay!"

I would have Mel stay at my home again in a heartbeat!
“Mel is great! She lived in my home for 8 months during COVID.
She was extremely quiet, clean, thoughtful.
She replaced anything that she noticed needed care, even replaced a beach towel that got a small stain.
She was working remote and it seems all she did was work quietly.
Very sweet and considerate.
I would have continued renting to her indefinitely but when the COVID restrictions were lifted I needed to return to my B&B business.
She was such a good tenant.
I would rent to her again in a heartbeat if I had anything available.
I am happy to provide a reference. Please feel free to text or call me."

She is a responsible and fabulous guest."
