Introduction

We are a family of four -- a mom (Mary), dad (Bill), 12-year-old daughter, and a friendly beagle (Bucky). We need a house- and pet-sitter when we go on an extended trip of a week or more.

Home & location

Our home is located 5 miles from Washington, DC in the leafy neighborhood of Arlington Forest, walking distance to shopping and restaurants in Arlington's Ballston area, where there is a Metro (subway) station. A city bus stops right
