Homeowner in the States, shared a house on the Central Coast in Australia for five years, and travel there regularly. My dogs and cats have passed on and I miss them, but now I can travel for extended periods. My dogs were large (labs, shepherd) and medium sized (beagle), various cats.
I would love to care for your pets and would keep your home at least as neat and tidy as you left it.
I am a non-smoker, writer who loves to walk, garden, enjoys watching wildlife and birds, cooking, knitting, and new experiences.
