From April 5, 2024 until April 19, 2024
Description
My beautiful, very clean, 1907 bungalow will be available for two weeks in April while I am taking my son on a modified Grand Tour to London and Paris. One queen bed in master bedroom, one twin bed in other bedroom, a separate office/TV room, large living room, dining room and kitchen in an open plan. One bathroom with shower and bathtub combined. Fully stocked kitchen with granite countertops. Small front yard and private back seating area with table and chaise lounge seating area. Six block walk to the ocean. Very rare private home near the cliff high above the beach. My dog, Marshmallow, comes with the house and needs to be let out and ideally walked. He could stay with the housekeeper if need be. Please also water the rose bushes and lemon, lime and grapefruit tree. People in the neighborhood know Marshmallow and will come up to you and talk to him, if you're walking him. There are neighbors in the back house who walk past the house to get to their house and are helpful, if you need anything.

I am looking for help while I am away
I would like help with my pet(s)
My dog, Marshmallow, comes with the house. He needs to be let out and fed and ideally walked. If this is a problem, he can usually stay with the housekeeper at her apartment, but I'd have to check.
I would like help with mail and deliveries
Mail comes in through the front door slot. Please put on the table.
I would like help with plants or garden
Rose bushes and citrus trees should be watered, ideally.

Comments: I have a dog that needs to be watched and plants to water. I could get someone else to take the dog, but it would be easier on my end if you watched him while visiting. I am going away for two weeks, one week in England and one week in Paris.
