We’re looking for some reliable person/persons with time on their hands who would occasionally like to make a few pesos feeding our two puppies and staying in our guest house while my wife and I get away for 1-3 nights.  We have a Golden Retriever and a local rescue pup. They don’t require much, just feeding morning and evening, and an occasional walk. They’re great together. We like to get away once or twice a month, but can’t just leave them.   Mark  624 189-2989   bajamark1@comcast.net    206 923-9043   voicemail
