We are getting married abroad this summer and all of our family who we normally turn to for pet sitting are coming with us so we have no one to take care of our dog. We don't want to put her in a kennel so we are looking for someone who is happy to come and stay in our home for 15 days whilst we go away from 13th June until 28th June 2015.
Our dog is called Lucy and she is an 8 year old Staffie. She loves nothing better than lots of love and cuddles. She doesn't take a lot of care; she's well behaved and trained and like most other dogs, sleeps for the majority of the day. She is used to being on her own during the day if you wanted to go out to explore the surrounding area during your stay but we need someone to make sure she is fed & watered, walked, let out for the toilet and given lots of love while we are away. At times she can tug a little when she is on the lead if she is excited about going out so you will need to be ok with handling a stronger dog, however the majority of the time she is well disciplined on the lead.
We live in Market Weighton which is part of the Yorkshire Wolds and is located approximately half way between York and Hull. The nearest park and ride for York is about a 25 minute drive away down one road. Market Weighton itself is a market town and there are a number of shops, restaurants, bars and supermarkets. There are lots of walks nearby if you would like to do some exploring of the wolds. The town of Beverley is about a 15 minute drive away. Our home is set over three floors so you will need to be ok with stairs.
