Shane & Toriya looked after Marilyn’s pets & home
Shane is my son and I’ve always loved animals, so he has grown up loving and appreciating the relationship that can be built with them. While growing up in my home, he shared his space with dogs, cats, and a rabbit inside and chickens outside. From the time he was very young he’s been respectful and kind with pets and was interested in learning how to care for them. The first time I met Toriya (now his wife), I was happy to see she shares his love of animals and a seemingly innate understanding of animal behavior. They are both respectful and caring of places they live and places they visit, and are both willing to take over and/or help with any housekeeping (or yard) jobs while away from home. They take pride in keeping their own home nest, clean, and organized. Shane has also inherited my love of plants, so while house sitting plants would also be treated with love. I trust Shane and Toriya to treat any home they stay in and any animals left with them with the utmost love and care.

Why we want to house sit
Pretty simple, we love the company of pets and we want to enjoy traveling the world on a budget. It's a win/win for the owner and for the guests, just makes sense.
