Hello David, and my wife, Barbara, are a non-smoking, professional, actively retired couple who offer without charge a free home and pet sitting service. We enjoy travel, home stays, pets, making new friends, and visiting areas of special interest. We are experienced house and pet sitters, having fulfilled many assignments in the UK, Europe, the USA and Australia. Many references available. We have wide travel flexibility and can be ready at short notice including holiday periods. Our preferred stay is two to eight weeks' duration. While you are away,we self provide and respect and care for your home as if it were our own, while responsibly and affectionately taking care of the pets (trying not to spoil them). We also, within reason, will maintain gardens and tend lawns, and water house plants as needed. Please review our details, and if our offer interests you, please contact us as soon as possible,,,, our calendar fills rapidly. For expediency please use our direct e-mail address: dbtuson@yahoo.com or the Housecarers message system user-name baranddave. We reply to all enquiries without delay and hope that we can ultimately add you to our list of the many satisfied home owners that we have served. You would not be disappointed with us and we'd love to hear from you. David and Barbara Tuson
