Mary and Jamie

We're a bi-national family and love to immerse ourselves and live as locals. We travel frequently for work up and down the East Coast USA and The Bahamas - when we're not working, we love traveling with our family (twin five year olds). We like to keep our living spaces clean and respect others' homes. A core belief we hold is to leave a place better than we found it. We own our own business and can be flexible with travel dates and locations for the most part-- we are adventurers at heart and interested in practically any place that we would feel welcome, especially anyplace near water. My wife and I travel solo as well as with our two girls depending on the season. We sometimes travel with an extra hand for the kids, but will always communicate beforehand. We love animals (and plants!) and would be happy to give extra love, feed and care for your fur family member.
