We are recent empty nesters who have sold our house and are waiting for our new home to be built. In the interim we are available to pet sit and house sit. We have extensive experience with home maintenance and repair. I am very handy and enjoy fixing things around the house. We are neat and tidy and are non smokers. As a retired Army officer and defense contractor, I have top secret security clearance. As a former educator, my wife has a police background check on file. Perhaps these credentials speak to our trustworthiness.
Growing up on a farm, I took care of horses. I have also raised and trained three German Shepherds and adopted two kittens from a shelter. My wife is a former Special Eduaction teacher. In addition to her love of dogs, she volunteered in our animal shelter and fostered many litters of kittens. This included dispensing medication and monitoring their health. We have no pets of our own at this time, but look forward to pet sitting. This would only enrich our experience of exploring a new community.
