We've had so many great experiences housesitting and spending time with cats and dogs all over the world. I (Gerri) am a writer still working online and Kevin is retired from his career building sets for theater. (He's very handy and has remodeled many homes.) We're both non-smokers. We have lots of experience with pets including fostering more than 100 kittens for rescue organizations, dog sitting and caring for our own animals including guinea pigs, fish, hamsters and our late labradoodle Sampson. We love seeing the world and have made lasting friendships through housesitting. We know it can be hard to leave your home in a stranger's care and our goal is to respect and care for your home so you feel 100% comfortable. We are American and Gerri has dual Lithuanian citizenship. We split our time in North America and Europe.
