Lincoln, East Midlands

About this house sitting position in Lincoln

We live in a 2 bed house in the suburbs with our sole pet Ellie. Just 2 minutes walk away is a lovely county park with lakes and green open spaces. A five minute walk will get you to the local pooch friendly pub which serves food and has outdoor seating overlooking the lake. We are also a only short drive away from a nature park. There are regular buses into town where you will find many dog friendly pubs and eateries.

We are looking for someone to stay in our home and look after our 1.5 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback Ellie from 28 April to 21 May 2018. Ellie is a big girl (35kg) but she is a softy who doesn't have a bad bone in her body. As we have an enclosed back garden she will ask to be let out when needed or just open the door herself. She has 2 bowls of kibble each day so no real effort required here, but good luck saying no to her big brown eyes when you're having your dinner! One hour long walk a day will be fine for her, especially if she meets one of her mates on the green and runs herself ragged. She is crazy about her frisbee and she regularly goes out with me on my bike either along the local bike path or around the country park. Ellie travels well in the car and she goes everywhere that I am allowed to take her. She is used to sitting politely in the pub when we go out for a few drinks or for a full meal, day or night no matter how busy. More often than not it's everyone else in the pub coming over to fuss her or sneak her cheeky treats. Read more...
