I live in Sarasota and have a cat and border collie who will need to be fed and cared for, for 19 days. The cat will keep a very low profile and the dog is 15 and won't require too much either. There may be some watering if it is dry outside and we don't get rain. There are fruit trees and gardens and a nice back yard with a BBQ. I have wireless internet you can use and cable tv, close to the number one beach in the USA. Free long distance in the US.
The person I had hoped to use is backing out on me, so I am forced to go looking for people whom I don't know personally so I'm a little hesitant but if I can find someone who will be great with the animals I'd feel much better.
Maggie, the border collie is 15 as I said, and completely deaf, so she needs to be looking at you in order for you to wave to her or signal her to come. They will both just sleep alot. I don't usually like to do this in such last minute timing, but as I said, I had a local person all set to do this and he is backing out on me.
