Why we want to house sit
We enjoy traveling and view house/pet sitting as a great way to get our pet fix while visiting cities we enjoy.
Our experience
We had a dog and cat of our own for many years and understand how important it is to have a reliable and caring sitter when traveling. We have prior experience in the Trusted Housesitter network as well as experience pet sitting for friends and neighbors over the years. We are non-smokers.

If you are looking for a great couple to take care of your pets and home -- look no further. They were fabulous. Parker and Morgan -- our cats were very happy with the loving care that John and Dorothy provided. They also communicated with us extensively as to the cats daily activity and welfare.
Because of the crazy schedule we had -- they even took my wife to the Airport mid stay and were able to accommodate us when we decided to return a day earlier than originally planned.
Upon our return the house was in magnificent shape -- as if our house keeper had come in after their departure.
We would highly recommend John and Dorothy they are everything you would expect and then some.

Response from John & Dorothy
Jerry and Maryann are wonderful hosts and we thoroughly enjoyed caring for Morgan and Parker. These two fun cats provided us with lots of companionship and entertainment! We felt completely at home in their beautiful house. The guide they provided was very informative and helped us navigate the Annapolis area as well as giving us all the vital information to enjoy their home. We can't say enough about the the Annapolis area and the wealth of culture, history and great restaurants. Downtown Annapolis and the US Naval Academy are only minutes away. We would sit for them again anytime.

John and Dorothy spent ten days house-sitting and caring for our two cats. We highly recommend them for any of your house/pet sitting needs. They arrived at our home prior to our departure and had already read through our rather inclusive home guide. During our time away, they frequently communicated with us and assured us that the cats were doing well. In addition, we arrived home to a wonderfully clean house, a lovely plant, and a bottle of wine. Our cats were content and well-cared for, as well.
A delightful couple, John and Dorothy would provide you with peace of mind during your travels.

Response from John & Dorothy
Bethany and Jason are wonderful hosts and we thoroughly enjoyed caring for Dougal and Maguire. These two fun cats provided us with lots of entertainment! Their home is fantastic and truly made us feel like we were at home away from home. The home guide they provided was incredibly informative and helped us navigate the Staunton area as well as giving us all the vital information to enjoy their home. We can't say enough about the the Staunton community and the wealth of culture and great restaurants. The Shakespeare Theater was amazing! We would sit for them again anytime.
