Our experience

1 years

We took care of a friends golden lab for a long weekend. She stayed at our farm and had a wonderful time playing with our dog and chickens and livestock. We have our own pets and farm animals that we care for.

January 28, 2024 To Whom It May Concern: If considering Jake, April and Atlee Laurent as caretakers for your home with pets or other animals, you are selecting the best family possible. They have deep experience with all kinds of animals. They have a cat and a well-trained, disciplined dog as pets. It was fun to watch the development of their rescue dog from being nervous, timid, and scared of strangers to a calm confident animal; all achieved with a gentle and loving manner. They, at the same time, have been raising sheep, pigs, beef cattle, chickens, a horse, and a donkey. The animals are always well cared for to their specific needs. They always appear healthy and clean. Their barn, pens, and yard are as neatly maintained as their home. The Laurent’s are very responsible and fussy in how they go about everything they do. I don’t hesitate in giving them my highest recommendation. Sincerely, Tammy Jesme

Why we want to house sit

We work in public education, which provides ample time off, but not always the finances to support worldly travel. As parents we want to have our daughter Atlee experience much of the world as well as the uniqueness and similarities that
