Description:

Hello, I live in Boulder, Colorado. This morning I went on a trail run close to my home--I love being active and have pet-sat many friend's dogs who required daily exercise. I love to ski as well, and I do a bit of yoga every day. I LOVE to cook and grow food, and have cooked professionally at one point in my life.  (Recently foraged nettles while on a hike and came home and made homemade ricotta-nettle ravioli). I'm adept at canning and preserving food. I've been a freelance photo stylist in commercial photography for almost 30 years and I'm ready to do something more. I love to travel and have traveled to Europe extensively.  I have WWOOF'd in Italy and France, taking care of sheep & horses, bed and breakfast, cooking, gardening, cleaning, ironing, etc. etc.  During Covid quarantine I stayed at my family's Farm in South Dakota, and was able to reestablish my Mom's perennial gardens, as well as build two waist-high growing boxes, and I pruned and... read more

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
