House Sitter in Cottonwood, Arizona

I'm a semi-retired professional, with two, friendly, well-trained dogs who travel with me. My dogs, Chloe & Paco LOVE other dogs. So, if you have a dog(s) who would like our company while you are out of town, let's connect! My dogs (and I) are middle-aged, mixed breeds and therefore flexible in terms of going for daily hikes vs. leash walks vs. just laying around the house. So, we can typically match our activity levels to your dog(s). I have a degree in Landscape Architecture (from UW-Madison) and LOVE getting my hands in the dirt and on your plants (indoors or out), whether they need watering, pruning and/or TLC. And I'll gladly give you landscape design ideas, as they'll naturally come to me while staying in your home. In addition to loving plants, I'm an animal lover, too. In my younger days, I did a lot of house/pet sitting, in addition to living with dogs, cats, birds, lizards, fish, hamsters and chickens. I'm capable to care for most any of your household pets (but don't care for snakes - sorry). I can likely even take on basic hobby farm/small livestock duties. I'm a perfectionist when it comes to keeping a clean home, so upon your return, you will find your home as clean as, if not cleaner than when you departed. Available for one week minimum, within one hour driving time from Cottonwood. Reasonable rates negotiable depending upon your needs. Although I'm new to Housesitter.com, excellent references from other sources are available upon request.
