My husband Harold and I are an active, retired couple who want to experience new areas beyond what traditional travel allows, to stay in a place for awhile and really experience the place fully in a way that living there, even for a short time, allows. We both just love animals and are happy to give owners the comfort of knowing that their dear animals, as well as their house and property, are well cared for in their absence.
We want to experience new places, small towns and big cities alike, and we are happy to take care of people's homes and animals to enable us to do this. We also find satisfaction in facilitating other people's travel by giving them the security of knowing that their homes and animals are well taken care of while they enjoy their own traveling.
On two occasions for about two months each, I housesat a small horse ranch in Washington State USA, caring for the house as well as three horses, two dogs, and a barn cat, while the owner was living oversees. In addition, as homeowners we are experienced in house, lawn, and garden maintenance. We also have many decades of experience caring for our own cats, dogs, and horses, and we have fostered kittens many times for our local animal shelter.
We are reliable, conscientious, tidy, and industrious, and we will take care of people's homes, properties, and animals as if they were our own. We enjoy animals immensely and love their company and the energy they add to a home. In addition, we fully appreciate how important animals are to their people and will care for any animals with love, attention, and patience. We enjoy gardening and can keep a lawn and plants healthy and thriving in the owner's absence. We are active and fit and enjoy walking, hiking, biking, and gardening, as well as reading, writing, and watercolor painting. We are non-smokers and are fully Covid vaccinated and boosted.

Testimonials
Highly recommended House/Petsitters
Dawn and Harold are really great pet and house sitters ! Communication was great from beginning to end, with some greatly appreciated pictures of our cats during our time away. We knew we were leaving our pets in great hands as they are so used to sheltering small kittens. We returned home to a clean house, some really sweet Hawaiian gifts, and pets really at ease, as if we never left. We could feel that they spent a great time with Dawn and Harold! We also really appreciated that they left some maps and flyers of the places they discovered and particularly enjoyed. We highly recommend future opportunities to let Dawn and Harold take care of your pets or house!

Dawn took great care of my pets!
Dawn did a great job taking care of my pets and my home while I was on a for five-night trip. She really connected with my dog & cat when she met them, she followed all of my instructions well, she sent me pictures of them during my absence, and when I returned my place was as I left it + she left me some fresh fruit from her tree at home. Everyone here knows how vital it is to have peace of mind that your pets and home are being well cared for so that you can enjoy your vacations. I would definitely utilize Dawn again and highly recommend her for your needs.
