Our house sitting adventures began nine years ago when a friend’s parents asked if I’d (Todra) watch their 14-year-old, four pound Chihuahua for three weeks in their home by the Susquehanna river. I’d been a do-or-die cat person, but that tiny pup melted my heart.
Soon after, another friend asked me to stay in her home and care for her pet squirrel for several weeks. I told Paul how much fun I was having, and we decided to do it together. Since then, we've watched all sorts of animals and fell in love with all of them.
We are both self-employed with internet businesses, so we work from home and need a great internet connection. We’ve both owned our own homes at one point, so we are well aware of how to care for a home and do minor repairs.
From our years of experience house and pet sitting, we have an extensive agreement that covers everything from local emergency contacts, to putting a credit card on file at the vet for pet emergencies (we’ve only had to use that once when a Golden Retriever puppy snatched and swallowed a sock from the laundry!).
We’re very healthy, active and outgoing. We love meeting new people and exploring new areas. We don’t smoke or do drugs. We’re incurable Trekkies. Want to chat with us? We’re available for video calls via Google Hangouts, , or Zoom.
