Hi!
We are looking for someone, or a couple, who would be listed here if it was called 'DogCarers'! We need dog lovers to care for our two lively 7 year old cockapoos and not leave them for any more than 6-7 hours in a day. They have great temperaments and enjoy being cuddled and spoiled. We have a clean, but relaxed and informal home. The dogs are also very clean and don't shed, so they are allowed to be on the furniture and beds.
You must be a non-smoker as I am a cancer survivor. Our house is a two story colonial located in a small rural neighborhood on a hill with almost 360 degree views over the Blue Ridge & Allegheny Mountains. We are in the western Shenandoah Valley just 4 miles from the center of Lexington, which is a lovely small historical town (with two Universities) in central Virginia. We are about a 50 minute drive from Roanoke airport. This is an ideal location for anyone wishing to spend the (normally very mild) autumn in the quiet, rural beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Our travel dates are flexible, but we should leave sometime around the end of October (so you don't have to do any mowing) or the beginning of November. We like to have a day or so with you before we leave to acquaint you with the dogs and your surroundings.
Please let us know if you are interested.
