Description:

Hi,  John & Suzanne Midlock here.  We are retired Postal workers now living in Talladega Alabama.  We are originally from northern Illinois.  We had a small farm there, with 2 donkeys, 2 dogs, 1 cat, and a lot of chickens!  We planted a huge garden, and sold the produce and fresh eggs.  I also baked fresh bread every day to sell.  It was a lot of fun, and a lot of work.  We don't have any pets left now, so we're free to travel when ever we want to.  So guess what, we love taking care of someone elses so they can get away and feel good that their pets are being loved on and are safe.  We've done numerous sits in the US, but we really love Mexico where we have done sits in Puerto Vallarta and Cancun area.  We are trustworthy, and conscientious.  We have lots of experience with many types of animals, and gardens.  We do not smoke.  We do enjoy a glass of wine occasionally in the evening.  We are not partyers.&n... read more

Description:

Hi! In 2021 I retired from a records office in a private university.  My service work now is part time in Winnetka, IL, a town I grew up in. I enjoy most animals and my 'priors' include dogs, cats and even a little tarantula. My partner is a retired handyman and the father of two boys; he hosted an even wider variety of pets over the years. We are both responsible homeowners, reliable and safety conscious people. I'm extremely hands on with pets, allow them to sleep in my bed, and enjoy giving lots of hugs and kisses! If canines have good leash behaviors, we can take long walks! If you are local, I am happy to meet you and your animals. If you are farther away, we can zoom. read more

Description:

Hello! I've been traveling full time as a house sitter with Trusted Housesitters for three years now!! I have over 35 five star reviews and have also completed many, many successful house sits for family and friends. House sitting has taken me all over the world from Italy to France, Wales and Ireland. And, of course, all over the U.S.!!I have loved the opportunity to combine travel with meeting new people and caring for pets. Now that I have a granddaughter in the States, I am looking to spend more time here. As a very experienced sitter, I am looking for house sits that will provide an income. If you aren't a paying home owner, I am probably not the right match for you as I can find non-paying house sits on my current platform.I am currently watching a cat out in Chicago and will be available July 2025 and following.  read more
