About this house sitting position in Highley, Bridgnorth

We live in a village in Shropshire in the middle of beautiful countryside with the River Severn and the Severn Valley Railway a few hundred yards from our front door. We have quite a large garden and a productive vegetable patch with fruit trees, soft fruit bushes, various vegetables and a greenhouse. It is important to us that any house/pet sitters are gardeners as we shall occasionally be away for a lengthy period of time and the garden will not look after itself! Most importantly we have two cats, Minnie and Felix. They are brother and sister and we watched them being born eighteen years ago. They are very friendly and love human company. Because of their great age they are not entirely reliable about using their cat trays and so there might be an occasional 'accident'!
Felix is very easy to feed - he will eat anything he is given. Minnie is a bit fussier.
The house is stone built with some of the stone and timber coming from a 17th century tythe barn that was here at one time.
Everyone who has sat for us always seem to have enjoyed their time here - we hope you will too.
