Lenny is my best buddy with whom I've lived since he was 3 months old--he is now 26 years old. While he can no longer fly normally he has figured out how to get around very well indeed. He is generally very friendly. I would want to meet the prospective sitter at my house the week prior to travel.

Important info

I prefer no cooking of certain foods inside the house (meat, fish) due to odors. I do have a small induction cooktop on which I cook outside. As far as vegetarian, I am lacto-ovo-vegetarian--not strict.
