About this house sitting position in Ely

We are looking for someone who would like a 7 night sit inCambridgeshire (Ely ) in from
20th -27th Oct to look after a gorgeous pair of old English sheep dogs. Harry is 8 and Pippin is 10

We live in a 6 bedroomed house , 3 reception rooms and large conservatory , with driveway parking, pretty garden, swimming pool and hot tub ( open summer months only ) in the lovely town of Ely, close to the river and magnificent well-known Ely Cathedral. Cambridge is only 20 mins drive or 15 minutes by train, lovely walks, historic and excellent shopping and of course there is the opportunity to go punting.

We look forward to hearing from anyone who would enjoy a week with a cuddly pair of friendly dogs who enjoy a 30 min walk each morning at about 9-10 am . They get up about 7.30am so needs to be someone who doesn’t mind an early start to their day to let them outside in the garden .
They can be left in the house for up to 5 hours after their walk, so plenty of time for you to go out sight- seeing. They enjoy an afternoon walk if offered too but they don’t enjoy coffee shops , restaurants or pubs so will be happy to snooze at home if you go out .

Excellent WiFi connection and short 10 minute walk to the pretty town centre, cathedral and river. All amenities including dishwasher and washing machine , tumble drier
Local shops and supermarkets all within walking distance plus dogs walks locally , although we often take the dogs to a local park along the river which is a 10 minute drive away. If you are happy to take them in your car we would show you this walk before we left . Otherwise they can be walked on a leads locally .

We offer a spare bedroom with a superking bed or you can use a king size bedrooom with own bathroom And shower . Family bathroom with bath also available to use .

Reviews for Ali and Paul

5 stars stars
“A wonderfully welcoming and comfortable home in a beautiful area.
Pippin and Harry are super friendly, good natured and well behaved dogs who we fell in love with instantly.
We stayed for a week and enjoyed being in the lovely city of Ely which is within walking distance.... it has beautiful cafes, boutique shops and a lovely riverside walk.
It was a pleasure to look after these two lovely boys who are obedient and walk on or off the lead perfectly. They are very, sociable, responsive to commands and love to just be around humans.
Ali and Paul were extremely kind and accommodating in every way.
Enormous thanks to them for allowing us to use their lovely home and trusting us with their much beloved pets.
