About me

Laurie: 69, Retired

I am a very energetic fit retiree. I love all animals, have looked after horses, dogs, cats, chickens, birds of prey. I prefer rural areas but have no problem living in a city.

Getting to see different parts of Canada, looking after pets, farm animals so their owners can get a break. I know how hard it is to get away when you have multiple animals. I love exploring, am insatiably curious, a vid outdoors woman so love the change of scenery each new place gives me.
