I need someone to take care of my house, indoor and outdoor plants and 9 year old Chinese Crested dog for one week. The dog needs 2 daily feedings,walks, pets, and your willingness to let him share your bed. The house is very well maintained and clean and has a shaded back patio and front entrance, carport, a very comfortable bedroom, home office room, and a combination living/ dining room with TV, DVD and DVR players and stereo which you may enjoy. This room is open to a full kitchen and faces a large grass common area with mature trees and shaded bench. Wireless internet works indoors and out. The community is very quiet and friendly. I need someone who won't leave the dog alone much, never more than a few hours. My home is next to an extensive walking/cycling path that borders the dry riverbed. It's also next to the Tucson Racquet Club, for which sitter will have a temporary membership. This will not cover use of tennis and racquetball courts, but will cover access to the pools (2), weight training equipment, and the wide variety of fitness classes. The restaurant at the Club is open for 3 meals daily, is pretty reasonable and pretty good, too. Please let me know ASAP if you might be available.
