We have two daughters in Dallas, and Austin Texas, and two young grandchildren.

We enjoy art museums, classical music, and travel to many places, in North America and abroad.

We are looking forward to celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary in August, 2023!

We are very comfortable financially, responsible, clean and tidy. We promise to treat your home as if it were ours. We own a lovely home in Danville, Pennsylvania, and rent a winter home near our grandchildren in Dallas Texas.

We do not smoke or use recreational drugs of any kind
We drink a 1-2 glasses of wine per week.

Why they want to house sit

We love to visit new places, and to stay awhile, rather than go in and out of hotels, from one place to another. We enjoy cooking and gardening, and getting to know a new neighborhood, town/village/city,, region and country. We are open to caring for pets, depending on the particular situation. We have had many pets ourselves, mostly cats, and none, currently.

Their experience

We have stayed briefly in friends’ homes, but never in a formal house sitting arrangement.
