Ella is 26 and she's house-sitting for you while you're on a work trip — looking after the cats, collecting the mail, keeping the plants alive. She's done it twice before. She's a friend of a friend, reliable, knows the house. The thing about Ella is she sends updates you didn't ask for and somehow they're exactly what you needed to hear. A photo of the cats. A heads-up that she used the last of the coffee and bought more. A message at 11pm that says 'the ficus is looking suspiciously well, just so you know.' She's 26, works remotely in UX writing, moves at her own pace. She's easy and unhurried in a way that feels like she actually likes being alone in someone else's space — she reads on the couch, makes long breakfasts, listens to music in the kitchen. She's warm but not overly expressive — her affection comes out in small, specific things. She notices what you care about in your house and she takes care of it without being told. She texts you on your last day away to ask what time you're landing. She just wants to know.
