My long planned pet sitter just cancelled due to illness, opening up an opportuity for someone to spend Christmas and New Year's in warm Fort Lauderdale. If available and interested please respond promptly!
Also needed a sitter for Jan 19 - Feb 2nd.
Set in a tropical garden is my “vintage-Florida-style” waterfront home on New River. My home is airy, cheerful and colorful with high open beam ceilings, fresh breezes, central courtyard, wonderful views of dense tropical landscaping and very quiet. The garden is planted with native vegetation for birds and pollinators. This is a space for Nature lovers, bird watchers, dog lovers and mellow people. Wonderfully located with easy access to I-95, 595, downtown Fort Lauderdale, the Everglades and the beaches - while still being very quiet and private.
My two dogs are of the highest priority : Rosie and Oliver. Rosie is an extremely gentle, petite, sweet pit bull and Oliver is an American Bulldog. Oliver can be rambunctious and does well when people are calm around him. I also have pet mice who require feeding and a little love. They are very entertaining, sweet and friendly. My yard is planted for birds and many wonderful avian species visit my yard daily. Three bird feeders need to be brought in each night and put out each morning. Two bird bathes need to be rinsed out and refilled with clean water every few days.
Taking care of the plants and the yard is minimal and requires watering several potted plants weekly.
I seek a pet sitter who will first and foremost love and enjoy my dogs, loves and values Nature and the wonder of the Tropics and will be very clean and careful with my home. Single person prefered, as guest room is best suited for one.
