Hello, my name is Linda. I currently live in the Pacific Northwest. My husband and I moved from ALaska five years ago. We were spending more time away than at home there, mostly in Mexico. The last few years we have not traveled due to Covid. During that period my husband, Norman retired, and we are ready to start again. Sometimes we are not able to take our furry room-mates with us, so we joined TrustedHousesitters. I am hoping this forum will help us find a sitter, help us be wonderful hosts, and make new friends.
