Why I want to house sit
I can no longer have pets because of condo restrictions, but do love to spend time with them. Free time and the desire to explore new places makes pet and house sitting a desirable situation for me.
My experience
Mutual love was shared with a spirited Wheaten Terrier, before illness took her from me, but she made every day a special one with new adventures, and new acquaintances, many who became friends. I have looked after several pets and houses for friends over the last few years when more time became available to me. Looking after a home and pet is a much greater travel experience than being in a Hotel.
I will take care of your home and pets as I have looked after my own. Clean, tidy, attentive and caring. I am physically active and walking is a favourite hobby, especially if there is a dog joining me.

Dorothy is wonderful. This was our second time using Dorothy to sit for our little JRT Rocket. Rocket loves her and we do too. Couldn't ask for a better sitter. Dorothy not only takes excellent care of Rocket but also takes great care of our homes either in Maine or Florida. We used to worry when leaving Rocket, felt that no one would treat her the way we do, always thinking "is she ok"? With Dorothy we no longer worry, she loves Rocket too. TH is extremely lucky to have her as a sitter. Thank you for making this service available.

Already have plans for Dorothy to watch Rocket again this summer in Maine.- Organised

Dorothy was a delightful guest in our home. She and Willie bonded instantly and he was sorry to see her go. Our plants were well looked after and, much to our surprise, she had prepared a delicious dinner for us the day we returned.
We will definitely ask Dorothy to return for a visit while ...Dorothy was a delightful guest in our home. She and Willie bonded instantly and he was sorry to see her go. Our plants were well looked after and, much to our surprise, she had prepared a delicious dinner for us the day we returned.
We will definitely ask Dorothy to return for a visit while we are at home so that we can enjoy her company as much as Willie did. She is a terrific person!- Organised
