I consider being able to care for someone's home as an honor, and allows for me to take much needed respites from my everyday life, so it is a win/win!
I am happy to care for pets, plants, and anything else that might be needed; I respect people's living spaces, so special requests are not ever an issue.
I live in the Greater Bay Area, but I am willing to venture beyond — I look forward to taking care of your home in your absence!
