My husband and I have three giant breed dogs of our own (and, fortunately, a built-in dogsitter, garden tender, and pool boy when we're away in his older son, 26). We also have a large garden and a pool.
We understand the responsibility that is required to keep all these parts moving comfortably, and we really enjoy the work.
We are very respectful of others' property and how they like to have things done.
We enjoy traveling, hiking, foraging for wild food, and cooking. We also love calm couch time and would be the perfect candidate for watching your home and pets and whatever else you might need while you are away.
