Hi

We are looking for a couple or individual to house and dog sit for us whilst we are away for a week from 18th-25th September 2024.

We live in Dunkeswell, East Devon, UK, a small village in the heart of the English countryside but with good amenities having Honiton, Exeter and Taunton all within a 30 minute drive. London is about 2 hours away if taking the train from Taunton.

We have 4 dogs,our Golden Retrievers, Harry and George, aged 6, and our English Springer Spaniels, Edward and Bertie, aged 3 and 1 respectively.

We have a 3 bedroomed, detached cottage, which has plenty of space. We have a good sized garden for the dogs to run in but you will need to be with them as the retrievers are born diggers !

There are good road and bus links to Honiton, supermarkets are close by, country walks are fantastic and there are a few local pubs and restaurants within driving distance..

All we ask in return for staying at our home is that the dogs are walked, fed and looked after, the plants are watered and the grass is cut (f need be). We hope you would keep the house tidy.  The boys can be left for upto 4 hours on their own.

A car is an absolute necessity and you will need to organise your own.

Please message us if you are interested and we can talk further. We are happy if you wanted to stay a few days either side of our dates to enjoy the locality without responsibility for the dogs.

Please do not contact if you charge for house/dog sitting services.

Sarah and Russ

I can't say enough wonderful things about the experience I had watching George, Harry and Edward.

Sarah and Russ made me feel instantly at home and showed me the ropes of the 3 dog challenge and their walking routes. The dogs also made me feel instantly at home too.

We had some adventures along the way and I got to stay on to visit Wisley Gardens, Jane Austen's home in Chawton and her brother's estate. Wonderful pubs in the area too.

Sarah and Russ were so accomodating and welcoming. They went out of their way to make my first overseas dog sitting experience memorable and special.
