We love to travel and would like to take advantage of house sitting as a means to a win-win situation for us and the home owners. We are very experienced animal/pet lovers and are great at administering love and affection to pets. We recently lost our 23 year old cat and a year earlier, our 19 year old cat. In prior years we have had dogs, horses and various farm animals. I retired from education and David retired from the insurance field.

Hi there!I am applying as an adventurous husband and wife team! We are in our young 50’s and would like to travel around before deciding where to retire. We cannot wait to see new places from a local perspective. We live in a beautiful home in the suburbs of Portland, OR with two of our adult children. We take pride in caring for our home and it shows – we would care for someone else’s home the same way. We are not currently pet owners but do love animals. Years ago, we used to have a beautiful little Arab horse and boarded her on a farm. I grew up on a 5-acre hobby farm in rural British Columbia, Canada. We raised every kind of farm animal you can imagine, including horses, pigs, and turkeys. It was there that I learned responsibility at a young age and developed a strong work ethic. I have worked in the medical field for most of my career. Recently I worked as a radiation sc... read more

My passion for working with others easily transfers to caring for animals. I grew up in a family-owned hardware store in the Midwest, the Heartland. My upbringing has allowed me to develop a skill set of 'handiness' allowing me to troubleshoot most unforseen issues.I've lived in NYC, Chicago, Minneapolis, Connecticut, the rural high desert mountains of southern Arizona and Nebraska. I love rural living just as much as major cities. I've traveled Europe, wandering, exploring many countries. I've house, cat and dog sat in France, England and Australia.
