My husband, David Mobley, and I are retired and living the good life at the adult playground of Florida. 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 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. We have also been in business for many years, but are now almost totally free of all commitments. We are non smokers and enjoy a glass of wine every month or so. Any parties must be done so we can be home by 8 pm. Be warned, we don't do cold weather!! Our home is a luxury home on a golf course in Central Florida.
