About
Very last minute, we would love to go away over Christmas and New Year. Just putting feelers out there for a house and pet sitter. My partner and i were going to go away camping but weather isnt great so we are thinking of flying somewhere if we can arrange someone to stay and look after our dogs. We are thinking of flying out on the in the next few days (Dec 23rd or 24th) and returning around the 10th of Jan (but nothing set in stone yet). Please let me know if you would be interested.
We live in a modern 4 bed house, the spare room has a comfy queen sized bed that you would be using. Garden maintenance would simply be to mow (if needed) a pretty small lawn.
Our boys are kelpie collie cross, full of energy and require walking every day which is pretty easy because there is a huge field opposite the house and a dog beach at the end of the street. The dogs are very friendly and good with other dogs. I have them well trained with quite a few set rules that they (almost) always adhere to. Rules such as no dogs on sofas, beds, carpeted rooms or in the kitchen. No jumping up, Sit before eating and lead on and off and sit on bed/no begging while we are having a meal. Also, they must always be on a lead when near the road. They are ball crazy, if you have a ball they will not leave you alone which is good for walking them off the lead because they won't stray.
Pets & farm animals
We have 2 border collie / Keplie crosses.
