We have three dogs (2 whippets, on Manchester terrier), two conures (very small parrots), and four bettas. All of them are very spoiled and get a lot of attention from us. We have a sf house with a good sized yard, and flower beds that require a sprinkle each evening if it doesn't rain. We want someone to come in and be here with our pets and plants while we're out of town. We live just down the street from NASA, very close to shopping and recreational areas.
