Greetings! We know what it’s like to have a home, pets and land and to need someone to look after it as well as we would ourselves. That’s what brought us to this site to begin with, as hosts. We’ve lived on a small off-grid island in the South Pacific for the last 9 years and built it up from scratch into a thriving resort, with multiple bungalows, a main-house, boats and lots of landscaping. Before that we lived on our 42’ sailboat for 8 years, sailing through the Pacific, and prior to that we lived in the East Bay Area of the city of San Francisco, where we originally hail from. We’ve experienced numerous and varied life-styles and living situations in our 19 years together and we have come to know what homeowners need in a valuable house-sitter. Beginning in early 2020 we will have managers tending our island retreat. That will free up our time and so we are ready to again follow our traveler’s hearts, seeking adventure and to see some more of this b... read more

My wife and I are retired military (32 years each). No strangers to living out of a suitcase, our goal in retirement is to continue those adventures by becoming immersed into the local life/culture of wherever we land. Short stays in neighborhoods, away from the touristy hotels is one of the best ways to do this.  The wife is very handy as she's rebuilt our bathroom and kitchen (I was manual labor).  We have lots 2 cats and a dog (but we do not travel with them), plants and a large yard that we are rather proud of - so, we're not afraid of the work involved in keeping up a home.  We understand the importance of treating your home and pets with the love that we have for our own. read more
