About this assignment

I may be doing an extended bicycle tour around the perimeter of the U.S. as a fundraiser for Habitat For Humanity for Hurricane Sandy/Haiti Earthquake. I am looking for a very responsible house sitter for a period that could last anywhere from 6 months to a year starting possibly June or July 2013.

What responsibilities are required of the house sitter

Of course taking care of the house, but it is also a fairly good size property, so will need someone who enjoys a bit of yard work, snow blowing, and such. I maintain my property in excellent condition, so would like someone who would be willing to help with that while I am gone - someone very responsible, dependable who can enjoy and take care of my home if I should undertake this venture.

What are the good features of the property and location

I am in suburbs of Toledo in a very nice ranch home, completely remodeled in 2003. It is a rural, wooded lot with a wonderful backyard patio. Landscape lighting front and back highlights the house at night. You are one minute from the countryside, while at the same time on the edge of the metro Toledo area with all the conveniences and shopping. Two supermarkets, Krogers and Meijers are within a minutes driver, or easily walkable.

What does the house sitter need to consider before applying for this assignment

Based on what I have written above, these are things we can discuss.
