About this house sitting position in Dursley
We have a 2 up 2 down terraced house with a big garden and 2 lovely small terrier dogs to look after, Wendy and Wilma. The house is well equipped and heated. We have a lovely wood burning stove and underfloor heating in the front room, as well as gas central heating, so it is super cosy in the winter. There is a double bed with attached toddler bed, and another bedroom with two singles.
The sit requires that you feed and walk the dogs twice a day - on the lead - and that is all. The local area is on the Cotswold Edge, with a wide range of choice from the doorstep and even more by car. If you want to go out for human fun, the cities of Bristol, Bath, Cheltenham and Gloucester are all easily accessible by car in under an hour, and Wales just across the bridge. Stroud is 9 miles away. There is a local train station 3 miles away (to Bristol, Gloucester / Chelt and beyond) and buses and taxis.
This sit would be good for one person, friends or a small family. We are open to people coming with their own dogs. Our dogs are extremely friendly and sociable.
One dog is scared of men, so it works best if not a man, but if you want to risk it, it can still be possible.
If you are visiting family for Christmas locally and want a place to stay away from them, this sit could work really well. The dogs can be left all day as long as they have a good walk in the morning. Read more...
