Introduction

We are a sailor and a basket maker/willow farmer living on 130 acre property on the coast of Nova Scotia. We travel quite often to see family in the EU and Australia. We have a Boxer/Doodle and a tamed feral cat.

Home & location

We live right on Antigonish Harbour overlooking St. George’s Bay and Cape Breton. Our property is adjacent to the Fairmont Ridge Hiking trail and 2 km from ocean beaches and near a University town. Sitters would stay in our home which has

Responsibilities

Maude is free to roam our property so can come in and out as she likes. She loves car rides and outings. She needs one good walk per day. Food and water and sometimes allergy medication. Mittens is very self contained, allowed out at night
