Review

This was a great sit. Good neighborhood near downtown and several nice walking lakes. Karen is chill and cool and Lizzie couldn’t be a better pet.

Sit local, or anywhere

You can keep it close to home, or you can use house sitting as a way to travel on a shoestring. It's all good, and it starts here.
