My husband Wayne and I are a professional, responsible, non smoking couple who love animals, outdoor activities, and traveling. My husband is a University Professor, and I worked as a Registered Nurse in hospitals and Surgery Centers for 43 years before recently retiring in order to have more time with our 2 young grandchildren that we dote on. We are clean and tidy people, and will make sure your home is well looked after. We have animals of our own, and know how much their care, happiness and safety means to us.
Why we want to house sit
We are excited for the opportunity to be able to give loving attentive care to pets, watch over and care for personal property, and experience new communities. This year Wayne is on sabbatical and we are using the opportunity to take our time traveling and exploring new areas. As pet owners and pet lovers, the ability to travel and have the company of furry friends is a wonderful opportunity for us. We both enjoy walking, hiking, exploring new places, skiing, and kayaking, as well as relaxing with a good book. While we will enjoy our time outside, Wayne will be spending time during our stay doing prep work for next years classes, and I expect my husband, your pets, and I will all benefit from the quiet time spent together.
Our experience
We are active people and have always had cats and dogs and other pets. I was raised on a working farm in Kansas, and am comfortable with dogs, cats, horses and other farm animals. My husband was born and raised in Miami Florida and enjoys fish and reptiles, along with cats and dogs. We had rural acreage in Washington State for 20 years, where we kept horses and had a large garden.
My nursing experience has left me comfortable providing routine health care to pets including injections and medications, although my husband is the "cat whisperer" when it comes to giving pills to cats.

Nancy and Wayne were great. One of the things that needs to be done here is light our split log wood boiler, which some people can find complicated. Wayne understood this straight away and just got on with it. We came home to a spotless house and happy pets. We'd be happy to recommend Nancy and Wayne to anyone considering them.

Our two pups loved them. When we arrived home, although they were pleased to see us, they also had a good look around for Nancy and Wayne!
We had regular updates whilst we were away and photos. This helped reassure us that the house and the pups were in good hands.
We came back to a clean and tidy home just as we had left it and we were so pleased that Nancy and Wayne had enjoyed their stay as per the letter they left us, despite the house not being completely refurbished yet.
If anything arose, we were contacted via email and we were reassured that everything was ok.
Nancy and Wayne went beyond our expectations, even leaving gifts for the children on their departure. This was lovely and the children have been wearing their now accessories!
If every you are passing, please feel free to pop over for a coffee....we know how much you loved the machine! I have to agree with the note left, it would have made your luggage a bit too heavy!!!
We would like to say a big thank you and reassure anyone that Nancy and Wayne are lovely and trustworthy. We were so lucky to have found you.
Enjoy your travels.

Response from Nancy & Wayne
Thank you for your kind words. You and Rob were gracious hosts and Bear and Lacy were sweet dogs and wonderful company. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Nancy and Wayne Powel are very reliable and trustworthy people who take great care of my house, two dogs and two cats. The animals love them and look forward to their visits, and the house is always in great shape when we get home, I enjoy receiving the many pictures they text while we are away, and it makes our vacations so much more enjoyable knowing that our animals are well taken care of.
