Retired couple looking to explore different areas of the country. Have over 35 years of home ownership including pool maintenance. Have pet sitting experience with dogs, cats, horses, lizards, fish and birds. Have own transportation to locations. Very flexible on start times and duration.

We are non-smokers. We do drink wine, but not to excess. We are very quiet, out going and handy.

Ed is a retired Director of a global adhesive company. He is a adhesive chemist by training with an MBA. He has written several articles and holds several patents. He took care of Buckeye our golden retriever, who passed away. He loves dogs and cats. He is very gentle and loving to all pets.

I, Marijo, am a retired Principal Scientist from a global nutraceutical company and hold a MS in Chemistry. I have developed hundreds of dietary supplements that are currently in the marketplace. I enjoy dogs but love cats. I helped my daughter over 15 years care for the many horse we owned.

We both are very responsible. Have rented properties for vacations from others without issues. We leave the property in its original condition, sometimes better.

A lovely couple who provided excellent care for our 2 senior Frenchtons while we were on a family trip in Mexico. We came home to happy, well cared for pups and a clean home. We couldn’t ask for anything more. They were flexible, accommodating, and sent pictures and stayed in communication. highly recommend —your pups will thank you!

No rating Even left us "Welcome Home" gifts. Marijo and Ed were excellent house and pet sitters.

We especially appreciated how well groomed ... MORE

No rating Perfect 10-out-of-10 experience * Good communication. * Dog was in good shape upon our return. * House was as clean or cleaner than we left it. * Yard and vegetable garden watered and in good shape upon return. * My neighbors saw them and said things were good. * No surprises upon return (or during our vacation)! Ed and Marijo like to house sit to experience life in other places instead of the tourist hotel experience. They are homeowners and former dog owners. They took the same ... MORE

No rating Marijo and Ed were fantastic house and pet sitters. They took care of our exotic umbrella cockatoo for 3 weeks. Not the easiest pet out there either. Good conversation with them while we were away. The house was clean & plants/ yard looked bettering than when we left. We would highly recommend Marijo and Ed to care for house/ pet sitting. A great match for our needs.
