About Bonnie & Mark
We recently retired to the Blue Ridge mountains in North Carolina. We lived in California, the San Francisco bay area, for over 60 years. We have traveled in both the United States and Europe. We like to hike, play Pickelball, read, garden, visit museums and art galleries, and meet people.

Why we want to house sit
We love to explore and this would give us an opportunity to help others care for their beloved pets and homes while seeing the world. We usually don't like hotels; in a home, we would feel like one of the locals and be more comfortable.
Our experience
My husband and I have house and pet sitting experience. We have sat for people with dogs, cats, and even goats. We love all animals and take our responsibilities seriously. We also, pride ourselves in caring for their homes as if they were our own. All of our Trusted Housesitting assignments have been enjoyable.

Bonnie and Mark provided superb care of my two large breed dogs. Pre stay, Bonnie requested their care documents a few weeks in advance so that she had plenty of time to review and sign follow up questions about their care. Because I was out of the country multiple weeks, and Bonnie was taking over for another trustedhousesitter sitter, she took a lot of initiative to connect with the other sitter to ensure a problem free hand off.
Bonnie sent pictures of the boys, sent me updates of their adventures every few days, and have them lots of affection I can see!
After a week, Bonnie and Mark did an AMAZING job prepping the home for my return from being overseas. The house was immaculate and ready for my return after 18 hours of flying. The puppies were happy and I was grateful knowing I could just fall into bed and rest.
I would highly recommend Bonnie and Mark for your sitting needs!- Organised

Bonnie and Mark are exceptional pet sitters. They kept us updated with texts and photos, took the dogs on daily walks. Helped Marley calm down since there were several thunderstorms during their stay. The house was sparkling clean when we arrived home. I highly recommend Bonnie & Mark as sitters and hope they can back to sit again for us in the future.

Bonnie and Mark are simply fantastic! My situation turned from a cat sit to a cat lookout, when my feline friend disappeared just before they arrived! They handled to change beautifully. Then, just after I left, my AC died during very hot weather! They arranged for and oversaw the repair for this unexpected event with great professionalism and care. Everything they did assured me a care free trip and a beautiful home. They are capable, caring, and overall perfect house sitters who will stay in touch with you and do whatever it takes to give you confidence that your house and/or pets are in excellent hands.
