Mature, retired couple seeking international, active lifestyle. 

Hi my name is Brian. Beth and I have been married for 30 years and raised 3 children. Three years ago we retired and sold our home in Nova Scotia, Canada. Since then we have contributed to several housesits in Canada Sou,thern Europe and Panama. This year we are heading back to Latin America. 

The past three years have provided vast experience in what it takes to perform a positive house-sitting arrangement. As mature adults we bring a calm, caring disposition. As previous home-owners we have experience in the day-to-day maintenance and upkeep of a home. We are able to handle an emergency if it arises, provide excellent communication with the host, we are responsible and will respect your property.  

Brian is a retired Business Analyst who enjoys staying busy with home maintenance and repair projects. Keep that in mind! Beth is a retired Administrative Assistant who is well organized and meticulous about housekeeping. As pet lovers we were often called upon to look after pets by friends and neighbours. 

House sitting has supported our interest in seeing the world and learning about new cultures in a way that only slow-travel can provide. 

Thanks for your consideration,

Beth & Brian

Sit Dates May-2-21 - Aug-31-21 Homeowner Chumbaba, Member Since Dec-11-20

Location Lubrin Spain

Brian and Beth were like fairy godparents who waved a magic wand and made my house beautiful! In reality, they worked hard on home improvements while also taking advantage of all that my home and this region of Spain have to offer. Their main job was to keep the garden weeded and watered, and to clear a huge (I mean HUGE) pile of garden waste from outside the gate. Add to that practically rebuilding my little utility room, painting it, and tidying everything up into cute little containers; replacing a broken window; defeating a huge invasive plant; putting up garden screening; and cleaning, cleaning, cleaning - I've never seen my house as shiny as it was when I came back. A week after returning, and I'm still finding more of the lovely little touches that they made. They also left me with plenty of fresh water, made up the bed, filled the petrol tank, I could go on and on. They seemed to make friends with the entire village, too - all of whom vouch for the fact that they are 'buena gente' - good people. I wholeheartedly recommend them. Brian is the outgoing, humourous one, Beth is quietly considerate and helpful. Well, they are BOTH helpful - just lovely, lovely people. Whoever takes them on next will be a lucky person!
