We are a retired nonprofit executive and a retired structural engineer/professor who are seeking opportunities to travel, meet new people, and improve our language skills. We can dog sit for hypoallergenic dogs (water dogs, poodles, terriers, etc.) but cannot sit with cats (love them but SO allergic to them). We also can care for horses (my husband grew up at his family's riding stable). We have a smattering of French and Spanish but not fluent at all. We can happily supply personal references and we have excellent reviews on . Please reach out if you think we would be a good match for your needs.
