  Description

  August 8 to September 8, 2026
  
  We are Nancy and Glenn. We live with our sweet dog Willy in South Minneapolis in a four bedroom home. Glenn is a first grade teacher in Minneapolis Public schools and I’m a retired organization development consultant. We love the outdoors and hike as much as we can. Minneapolis is an awesome place to visit because of all the art, nature, social justice, and theater opportunities. There are many lakes and bicycle paths as well as off the beaten path and unusual places to check out.
  We are making our annual summer trek eastward to see family and friends in Upstate NY.

  Aide

  We are looking for a couple, or two to three friends or siblings to stay in our home while we are away for 4-5 weeks to complete tasks like painting, staining, mowing, cleaning, and other small & easy fix-it tasks! We will be home for 2 days to show you the tasks to be done before we leave. You can complete them on your own schedule and assume it would take you about 3 hours a day, five days a week. We will provide all materials and tools needed for tasks. We are taking Willy with us so no dog sitting.
