    Description

    Hi I'm Catriona & live in Newport RI USA in a Victorian house from 1899 with my dogs Louis—a 11.5yr old Beagle Mini Pincher mix aka Meagle & RBGLC—aka Ruthie a 2 year old 'supposed' Blue Heeler.

    My house is opposite one of Newport's Historic Mansions (also know as summer cottages), currently being used in the TV series The Gilded Age but I'm on the less expensive side of the road ;)

    I would love have someone come help me get my house back in shape ready to sell. Painting, gardening, packing, dog handling, etc.

    If you have any questions... just ask.
