Hahaha @Keith1! Ours is a smaller dog, but she goes up and down these mountains like a champ! What time of year were you here?
@IHeartAnimals, I don’t think so, because the home wouldn’t have had enough beds for your family. It was smallish, though plenty of room for me as a solo sitter.
In a small village on Crete. No celebrations going on here! Lol.

We fly back home 19th October. Think we start the sit about 5th October. Meet up would be good.

At/near home in PA. Just got back early this morning from Miami where I saw The Cure’s final show for the NA tour (and my 3rd show this tour).
Fireworks should be outlawed.

Hi @ElsieDownie. That would be lovely! I started a meet-up thread and tagged you, so we can see if anyone else would like to join us.
We are enjoying the last day on our current sit in Andalucía with Milo the tortoise, we are really going to miss him! 
Happy 4th July

I am near Seattle for the 4th. I am watching o e adorable cat and it is a lot of work keeping up this home to meet the HO requirements. On the positive side, I went on a half day whale watching cruise and saw Orcas, Minkie, and Humpback whales. It was amazing!

I’m spending the 4th the way any self-respecting animal-loving, Irish-American would love to — on a petsit overlooking the River Shannon. I just arrived so haven’t been able to cajole the pets (1 pup, two kitties, two donkeys) into posing together…yet.
