House Sitter in Portland, Oregon

I have a son and daughter in law who live in the Sellwood area of Portland whose house is too small for me to stay at length with them when I visit. Since I'm retired, Im available any time of the year. I'd consider any situation that would allow at least a one week stay, but definitely would be available for extended periods. I'm great with plants and animals. Im a mature, conscientious retired individual. I live quietly and enjoy cooking and 'hanging' at home and being a great companion for your fur baby or babies. i live out of state, so advance notice is necessary to make travel arrangements. I grew up in Hutto, Tx and would love a job that would get me to the Austin area, as well. As I mentioned, I'm retired so my schedule is pretty open.
