Help Our Local Church on the Coast in Carlsbad, California
We are parents of young adults who live one block from the beach. We have a sweet maltipoo who loves cuddles, tummy rubs, treats and walks! We love playing games like pickleball and spikeball, taking walks and bike rides to the beach. (Board and card games too!) We also love getting to know people, and welcome travelers who would like to help do light house work and yard work in our small yard, and help our local church that is only seven minutes away!
