Cats (2)

Amber and Archie are 14 year old labradoodles. They are very easy going, and only need a short walk each day. We also have two curious cats Ace and Aria who are sure to keep you entertained. Our house is very easily maintained and other than keeping the floors free of cat fluff not a lot to do, but enjoy the views of the lake.

medicationMedication/treatment required

Tablets for Amber and Archie. They are both on a medication once a day that is easily hidden in bread and peanut butter.

EMILY (Dec 2023 - 4 nights)

We loved house sitting for Ginny in their beautiful home. The communication was great and Ginny was so kind to us. The animals were low maintenance and made for great company over Christmas. We would definitely house sit again if the opportunity were to arise.

Beautiful house, lovely family, adorable dogs. A dream sit!

KAREN (Mar 2017 - 3 days)

It's a treat to stay at Ginnys Her house is beautiful and more important, so is she. I'm very fortunate to have sat for Ginny, and you will be too. I was appreciated from the start and it made me feel very at ease in her home. None of this is said lightly. You will find yourself wishing you can stay longer, plus Amber and Archie are adorable and I still miss them and think about them
