    Description

    Hi everyone, I'm Emanuela, and I live in Verona with my two adorable cats, Mimì and Mivida. I am a film producer with extensive experience in independent cinema, having worked on projects that have been recognized in prestigious international film festivals. In addition to producing films, I am also the founder and director of a renowned Film School in Verona, where I collaborate with actors, directors, and industry professionals from all over the world. My passion for storytelling and visual arts drives me to create meaningful and visionary projects, blending artistic expression with deep human insight.

    During your stay, you’ll have the chance to experience Verona not just as a visitor, but as a true local. There are always exciting events happening in the city, from open-air theater performances to film screenings, art exhibitions, and traditional markets. I’ll be happy to share tips on the best places to visit and things to do!

    Beyond exploring the city, you’ll also get a glimpse into my world as a film producer and artistic director. If you’re interested in cinema or theater, I’d love to exchange ideas and share insights into my work. Taking care of my home and my two beloved cats, Mimì and Mivida, will allow you to experience a warm and creative environment where storytelling, art, and culture are part of everyday life.

    Are you a cat lover? Do you enjoy movies and theater performances? Are you a native English speaker?

    If your answer to all these questions is yes, then you might be the perfect person for me!

    I’m looking for someone who loves cats and will take care of both them and our home. Your responsibilities will include:

    Feeding and caring for the cats 🐱
    Cooking delicious meals 🍽️
    Tidying up and keeping the house in order 🏡
    Grocery shopping 🛒
    Washing and ironing clothes 👕
    But it’s not just about tasks—you’ll be living in the heart of Verona, the city where Romeo and Juliet fell in love! Imagine strolling through its charming streets while running errands, soaking in the beauty of history and culture at every step.

    I would prefer a female, non-smoker.

    It would be great if you also knew how to drive, but most importantly, I’m looking for someone who will feel at home in this magical place.

    If this sounds like your dream opportunity, reach out! 💌

    For the person who will join us, there will be a private room and bathroom at your complete disposal (though I can’t promise that my little cats won’t sneak in!).

    The house is located in the heart of Verona, just a short walk from the famous Juliet’s Balcony. It’s a beautiful 19th-century home—spacious, bright, and very welcoming.

    The only downside… I live on the third floor with no elevator! But hey, that’s a great
    excuse to skip the gym! 😉
    It is important for me to have someone who can assist with shopping and preparing lunch and dinner.
    The supermarket is close to my home, and most of the food I buy consists of fruit, vegetables, and meat.
    The two main meals for me are lunch and dinner; however, I do not require elaborate meal preparation.
    I eat very simply — mostly vegetables (such as broccoli, carrots, courgettes, and tomatoes) accompanied by a protein source, such as a steak or two eggs.
    The only important note is that I follow a low-carbohydrate diet, and I will personally take care of the actual meal preparation.
