Mature couple = peace of mind.
We are an active, soon-to-retire (July, 2024) , fully vaccinated,
non-smoking, and responsible couple from the Dallas area. We are pretty
new to house-sitting, but we ARE long-time homeowners - - we’re
well-versed in all the pleasures, trials and tribulations that pet and
home ownership brings. We know from personal experience that having
capable and caring sitters makes leaving home and pets a lot easier.
Because we enjoy animals, meeting new people, exploring new places and
being of service, house-sitting is our perfect “retirement career”. Personality-wise, we are down to earth, practical, adaptable and culturally savvy (we have
visited over a dozen countries) and while we are new to house-sitting,
we’re definitely NOT new to the challenge of caring for a home and for
pets. Choosing us will let you sleep like a baby, knowing your home and pets
are cared for, loved and protected.
A bit more about us: Steve’s forty years as an entrepreneur in the video production and live
events industry (as video and TV Producer, Director, and Engineer) has
given him the ability to anticipate and often solve problems before they
happen. He also has the ability to keep calm and cool in difficult
situations. He grew up in the country near the banks of Pine Island
Bayou in Southeast Texas, and his early love for outdoor sports like
fishing and sailing continue to this day.
Deanna’s background as a Registered Nurse has taught her to be actively
thinking through every possible problem that might ever come up in any
situation (or possibly, that’s just the way women think). She truly
enjoys caring for people and animals. Her dream job in retirement is
just pet all the animals, all the time. Her free time is usually spent
either reading a book, curled up with a furry critter, or cooking
something amazing and sometimes, allowing a dog or cat to be my
taste-tester (if that's OK with you, of course.)
We are experienced and financially secure travelers, not tourists
dashing from site to site. We prefer ‘slow travel’ allowing us to savor
new places; the food, the culture, cuisines and local markets. |
