Hi, folks, I am currently available. My most recent house/pet-sitting jobs are mostly in upscale Marin County homes. It seems I have fallen into a niche, working for tech-savvy executives and CEOs. Although I have also worked for attorneys, photographers, health workers, stock brokers, accountants, etc., the common denominator is that all the folks who hire me: ) are hip to how they connect to the Internet with broadband speed. ) appreciate the value a mature man brings to protecting their loved homes and endearing pets. I now have years experience house/pet-sitting. In addition to shorter house/pet-sitting jobs, I worked a live-in job with three dogs for High Tech VP, Feb.-Nov. , halfway up Mount Tamalpais on Panoramic Hwy. in Mill Valley, CA. But my employer moved out of state. Brandy and Adam; her letter of reference: s:// .jimrichardson /jimsits/brandyAndAdamLetter. I also worked October through April with two dogs near San Rafael, CA. My duties included maintaining two Koi fish ponds. And I managed this self-sufficient residence: water towers and pumps, orchard, irrigation, hot tub, gym, appliance functions, Internet connections, liaison to swimming pool maintenance folks and other staff, etc. Peter's letter of recommendation: s:// ..jimrichardson /jimsits/peterLetter.
