IT Professional and Estate Gardener
Go-Getters - Ready To House and Pet Sit For You


We are a happily married couple of 40 years, fortunate to have been able to early retire 5 years ago.

House sitting for you could be a win-win for us both. You and your beloved pets will receive dedicated care and the attention you deserve. We are given the opportunity to fulfill our dream of traveling and getting to know communities by living like a local. House sits have allowed us to see so many places, get to know homeowners and their adored four legged companions.

We have done many sits over the last 5 years. Some for months and in other countries and not all thru this site. All have positive acknowledgements that we would be happy to share with you. We have not only made many furry friends, but have enjoyed the connection with the homeowners who entrusted us with their home and pets.

We are pet lovers and miss not having a pet to greet us when we come through the door.
We have had family fur babies that we have shared our home with. Elsa, our Lab, and Tigger, a mischievous calico, both entertained us for 14 years, romping and playing together.
Later, Rollo, a ten-pound Pomeranian mix, overjoyed us with his personality and loyalty for another 14 years.

We enjoy keeping active walking pets or doing chores. Hiking and bicycling are a passion. We are doer's, taking care of daily tasks with a smile. We are meticulous in keeping our home and garden spaces clean and tidy.

Jerry - As an IT professional, I handled urgent technology situations in a courtroom setting, while staying calm and flexible. You can leave your home and cherished pets in my care, knowing that if the need arises, I can deal with unplanned events in a rational manner.
I am a handy man. I have taken much pride in the homes Cheryl and I have had, remodeling kitchens, bathrooms, and performing maintenance projects in the home and yard. I am excited with this next chapter, travelling, meeting new people, enjoying life and helping others do the same by house sitting for you.

Cheryl- I have never had an inside job! For 30 years I had a small estate gardening business, maintaining more than 100 acres of specimen trees, shrubs, roses, perennials, annuals, and water features. I listened and worked with my clients, building trust while taking care of many needs - preparing gardens for weddings, becoming the person the alarm company called in case of an emergency, doing whatever was asked of me or I saw that would make my client's lives more enjoyable. As a people pleaser, by house sitting I am able to slow down some while traveling, dote on your pets, and have a purpose as I have had caring for the homes and grounds of my clients.
