Traveling author, house sitter

Pet care experience

Hi! I am a traveling author (Beasts: Beginning of the End), my husband is a digital nomad as well doing marketing after getting half a PhD in Psychology, and we have a 14-pound nonshedding service dog. We are in our 30’s, professional/mature/responsible, handy, clean, vegan, and will take care of your furred, feathered, scaled, or slimy friends like they were our own (will not feed live animals to pets like snakes or spiders, though!). We have fallen in love with Portland and we would like to be here throughout the summer, but we need to offset our pricey Airbnb budget with housesitting while I finish writing my third book (set in Portland!). Prices are negotiable depending on our availability! We would rather take care of your pets/garden/etc any day rather than keep paying for Airbnb’s! We are also well-versed in what is toxic to dogs and cats, keeping those items or scents far away or safe out of reach. When in doubt, we will always look it up!

Ana was great with our 10 year old Ridgeback.

We were very pleased with the care and affection that Chet received with Ana and Jon. Chet clearly enjoyed his stay! It was all very apparent in the photos and texts that Ana sent while Chet was staying with them. I would not hesitate to use their service again.

Biggie (Shih-Tzu) was born on 2/2/15 and he became a part of our family on 4/5/15. One thing we didn't consider was our family vacation (3 teenagers) scheduled for late-July. Needless to say we were freaking out a little bit heading into the month of July. He had become such a huge part of our family by then and my wife and I were so nervous about what would happen when we were gone. Ana was an angel. Biggie took to her and Sadie from the very beginning. She communicates with us throughout our trip with messages, pics, and videos. When we came back Biggie was healthy, happy, and well. When we go on a trip again, there is no doubt we will hope Ana has an opening.

My little Bichon named Winnie (the Pooh) stayed with Ana for a week while I was traveling. Her husband picked her up in Palo Alto and brought her home soon after I arrived. Ana sent me many pictures of Winnie and her own small dog, talked about their walks and visit to the Dog Park, and I could see that Winnie was having a marvelous time. As Ana wrote, "Winnie was a happy camper!" I am so pleased with the care and love Ana and her husband extended to my dog. Winnie had such a good time I wasn't sure she was glad to be home. I hope that Ana is available when I travel again. Anne Johnson
