About this house sitting position in Crediton

I have a small 2 bedroom cottage in Lapford, Devon, and a beautiful 11 year old shiba inu named Penny.

Penny is a sweet, yet independent shiba inu, who takes a little time to warm up to people but loves cuddles and chest rubs when she is relaxing at home with her loved ones.

I have recently inherited Penny and have been working on getting a collar and lead on her, but this has been a long and slow process and she has never had a collar or lead on in her life. Anyone taking on this house / pet sitting opportunity would have to be confident to take her out for a walk without a lead.

She never wanders too far away, and is good at recall. There are lots of spots a short drive away from the property that she enjoys forest and hill walks.

In terms of the property, there is nothing here that needs to be taken care of, just someone who can walk Penny twice a day and keep her company and happy!

It's an old cottage so it gets quite cold but there will be firewood and heaters here to keep you toasty!

I will give a video tour of the property to anyone interested.

Cheers :)
