Description

We are a family of 4 - two elementary school aged children and two parents. This brick twin/duplex is our family home, which we are leaving for the summer. We're hoping someone can make good use of our cozy home in a fantastic location. This home is split into 3 floors. On the main floor, we have an open concept living room, dining room, and kitchen. There is a deck off of the kitchen that overlooks the backyard and the park behind the house. The yard has a patio, two big trees for shade, a grill, hot tub, and a gate out to the park. Upstairs, we have three bedrooms and one bathroom. The primary bedroom has lots of clothing storage and a queen size bed. The two other bedrooms have twin loft beds. The upstairs bathroom has a full-size tub and shower with a glass sliding door. The second bathroom, in the basement, has a large walk-in shower with two shower heads. The basement also has an office space on either end (no solid door between, but quite a bit of distance). The basement also has a futon couch for guests, a TV and some workout equipment, which we could leave if you want to use it or store if you don't. There are two parking spots in the driveway and a small grassy yard out front with bushes for privacy. More photos coming soon!

House Sitting

I am looking for help while I am away

I would like help with my pet(s)

Pet sitting is optional depending on who we find - we have a cat and a fishtank that we would consider leaving at home. If that would bring you joy, please let us know! If it would stress you out, no problem, we can give you an empty house.

I would like help with plants or garden

We'll have some house plants that need watering. You are also welcome to plant a garden in our raised garden beds (we can even start it ahead of time for you) if that brings you joy- but no pressure.
