Our house sits on 7 acres in a Northern Virginia suburb. Sitter will need a car as there is no public transport. 2 miles to the lovely old town of Clifton, only 45 minutes to Washington DC. There is lots of good hiking in the area.
We have a big old labrador and a tiny, rather needy chihuahua (rescue); there are two indoor/outdoor cats; and one chicken. The dogs would need two or three short walks a day. The tiny dog needs a bit of encouragement at meal time.
