Mark & Sandy

Greetings!

We are an adventurous, professional, responsible retired couple. We take the trust of our clients very seriously. Will care for your pets, home, plants and garden as if they were our own.

We recently adopted an adorable, cuddly, very playful 3-year-old German Shepherd/Beagle mix. He enjoys other dogs and cats, but we certainly understand other animals may not enjoy him :) He is pictured with us in our 1st photo.

I am a retired college and hospital maintenance manager who grew up in Wisconsin having worked on farms after school and weekends working fields and feeding animals. As you may guess from my background, I am a very hands-on type of person skilled at carpentry, plumbing, electrical, small engine work and such. If you need chores completed during our stay that can be a conversation. We can easily manage any situation that may arise in your home in your absence with communication and your guidance. My wife is a social worker who provided home studies for couples wishing to adopt. She has worked in hospital settings and numerous group homes. We live in a cabin in southern Kentucky nestled in the rolling foothills of Appalachia. Although we love our rural setting we appreciate city life and exploring!

We will provide daily updates with pictures so you never have to worry how your buddies are doing while you are away, and leave your home as if you had not left. We have decades of experience with animals and enjoy caring for them. If they have special needs this is not an issue as we have rescued our share of animals over the years. We hope you will have peace of mind knowing your furry friends are comfortable and secure in their normal routine. We just ask you to provide detailed instructions for your pets, home and property.

Please don't hesitate to reach out. We look forward to answering any questions that you may have. It would be our pleasure to care for your pets and home!

We are fully vaccinated including boostered against COVID.
