Large log home located high in the Sierra Nevada Mountains overlooking stunning Lake Tahoe. We are interested in finding a responsible older house and pet sitter for our home approximately October 1- December 10 of this year.
Additional responsibilities include possibly managing bookings for our two rental units (located in our home with separate entrances), greeting guests on arrival and interacting with them, as needed (which is typically very little), so you should be very personable and friendly. We have someone who will clean the units between guest stays. This is a quiet time of year here so there may not be many guests during this time.
Additional duties might include mail collection, some correspondence and possible banking or bill paying (we'll try to handle this ourselves as much as possible).
Now, the most important part of our needs: caring for and being a companion for our Chocolate Lab, Hazel. She is 9 yrs. old, in pretty good health so far and an absolute joy to all who have met her. She enjoys walks, hikes on our local trails, swimming in the creeks and lake and retrieving her ball when you throw it for you (her ball is her greatest joy!).
We offer free use of our main home, utilities included (within practical limits) in exchange for the duties listed above.
