Mature couple promise to respect your home and property

Your home is our home while you're away. We live there as lovingly and carefully as you do. That's our promise to you. Cat and I are honored to look after your home and your pets.

Carolyn (Cat) is a writer and an artist. She is also a counselor who leads a dream group and offers individual counseling. She is currently writing a book based on her expanded life after working with a spiritual teacher.

She and Allen have enjoyed a long marriage, this year celebrating our 45th anniversary. Allen is a videographer with a passion for telling people's stories. A link to his website can be provided on request.

We've owned our own home and sold it to invest in an alternative energy start up venture. We are now grandparents and enjoy the freedom to travel, make new friends and explore possibilities.

We love animals and find great rewards in connecting with other people who love animals too. We have lived in a coastal, semi- remote area of West Marin (Inverness) for the past 12 years, and our home there is currently being remodeled. We will probably move to a new community, and - until we decide where it is best to land- we are enjoying the responsibility of caring for your animals and your home, as well as the stimulation of "walking in someone else's shoes."

Both Cat and Allen love animals and plants. Cat often draws animals and we've posted a few of her sketches here for you to enjoy. We have cared for a range of houseplants and gardens, as well as a variety of animals, most notably dogs, cats, hamsters, and chickens. Cat says, "Animals like me, and I get along great with them. Allen is even more connected with animals than I am. Every animal I've seen him meet has ADORED him!"

No rating Allen and his wife Cat took care of our home and pets for a week. They were quick learners and extremely responsible, communicative and respectful yet friendly. They were caring toward our pets as well as the yard and birds we feed. We came home to a place very well cared for. We greatly appreciated their daily text messages about how our pets were doing. We had given them quite a long list of daily chores in order to take care of our pets and yard, and they didn't complain or miss a beat. We ... MORE

No rating Kat and Allen were great house/pet sitters. They took very good care of our cats and the house. They were very communicative which we very much appreciated. We would use them again in a heart beat!
