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

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

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 husband, David Mobley, and I are retired and living the good life at the beach in 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 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. We have also been in business for many years, but are now almost totally free of all commitments. We are in excellent physical condition, 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 the Gulf of Mexico. We love living here, but also like to check out other locations from time to time. We will care for... read more

Caring for other's homes, pets and ranches fills me with complete joy. I've been providing home/pet/ranch care for 35 years. I am retired from my profession and solely provide care for other's properties and beloved animals. My profession, in part, worked with others experiencing crisis, trauma, and transition. 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. Three years ago, I spent close to 8 months traveling around the world. I am comfort... read more
