Quiet, clean couple who love dogs!

53, Retiree

52, Web Developer

Hi there,
My name is Mairi Lee - I am a retired Airline Employee.
My husband, Michael, is a web developer that works from "home" Have laptop, will travel :)
We have travel privileges due to airline retiree benefits, so can get around via my airlines network reasonably quickly and easily. We have been renting our Main and Upper floor via Air BNB while we are in and out of our city (we had our walk out basement suite completed so we have a place to stay if we are back in our city and people happen to be upstairs.)
Due to how often we are in and out of the city, it would not be fair to have a pet of our own, but, we love dogs and this seems like it could be a very symbiotic situation.
We do currently dog sit, in our home when we have no guests upstairs, and have references upon request from people who trust us to spoil and love their dog while they are busy, or travelling.
We send pics, vids and updates while their family is away.
Most recently, we had a sweet 60 lb ball of energy and love in the way of an Australian Labradoodle that we cared for, for 14 months.
Doodles, it seems, often have food allergies and ear, paw yeast infections and as such - we became quite proficient with ear cleaning, administering drops along with disguising pills to get him to take his daily allergy medication :)
We are interested to see if this will fill our hearts with dog love and give someone the peace of mind knowing their dog will be spoiled, cared for, played with and mentally stimulated while they are away.
*We are non smoking*
*We appreciate a home that is neat and clean and will be sure to leave your home the same for you upon your return*
*Have not figured out how to attach references to profile description. I can send an attachment through messaging if you reach out to me though :)*

Mairilee and Michael were angels who blessed our home. They not only showered our dog with love but also took excellent care of the house. I returned to a home cleaner than when I left it. Additionally, they spoiled us with many kind gestures. If you are lucky enough to have this couple stay in your home and care for your pets, you will be truly fortunate.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We enjoyed our time getting to know you and your family, and Fergus - well... he is just the sweetest character!

Mairilee and Michael were excellent house sitters. Great communication before, during, and after their visit. They kept Zoey very entertained, followed our normal routines, and had a lot of fun! House was left in great shape. We'd be happy to have them again anytime!

Thank you for your kind words, we enjoyed our time with Zoey, she is a great pup!
We could not have been happier with a house sitter, Marilee and Michael were excellent communicators every step of the way, including almost daily updates and pictures of our dog Benji. They were both so caring and considerate. I/E our return flight was delayed by close to four hrs. (1:30 AM) once flight was confirmed they stayed extra time to ensure Benji was okay before they left. Due to the lateness they picked up a few groceries for us and prepared some home made soup. Our home was left ... MORE

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
