We need someone to look after our 11 year old spaniel ( he thinks he's a lot younger) and our cat. The cat is pretty independent and just needs feeding and the odd stroke. Paddy, the dog will need a good walk everyday.
Neither pet likes going to kennels and we can't go away unless we know they are being properly cared for!!
We live in a 5 bed house in Peaslake in the middle of the Surrey Hills. we have views from our back garden over fields and there are many lovely walks. Peaslake is also the 'mecca' of mountain biking There is a great village shop and a village pub within walking distance of the house.
Our garden is just under an acre, mainly laid to lawn but with a small swimming pool also. It is south west facing and has the most amazing sunsets when the weather allows. Ideally the house sitter would be able to mow the lawn for us and keep the garden maintained.
The house is pretty modern inside and easy to maintain although the house sitter would be asked to keep it clean while we are away.
Our holiday dates are not completely set in stone and may change by a couple of days although I'm hoping to have them confirmed very soon.
