About this house sitting position in Okehampton

Anyone out there local to Okehampton, Devon Area (EX20 postcode) Looking for some day time get away?
We have a beautiful and peaceful cottage, 3 miles from Okehampton in Abbeyford Woods. On a forestry commission woodland with public foot paths directly out of the gate through woodlands and beautiful walks.
We have a beautiful cross breed Labrador size woofer call Murphy. He is a rescue and has been with us for 2.5 years - very chilled , soppy and loves his cuddles. He is a scent hound, so prey drive is high - For this reason I ask that you don't walk him on Dartmoor in Spring due to lambs.. He truly is a joy to have in our lives and is full of character! He sounds his days snoozing in the garden, very easy to look after.
Our house has about 2/3rds of an ace of garden and copse of trees... sunshine and shade and lots of flowers, and veg that needs tending to .
Okehampton town is 3 miles away, our house is very peaceful and very easy to look after. Lots of books to read, WIFI, a large dinning room table to 'work from home' at, and a big Telly connected to the internet for those that wish to stare at something.
My partner and I are freelancers, we have secured a job a few miles from our home but sadly can not take Murphy with us to work.. I am looking for someone to come and woofer sit throughout the day times.. We will be leaving at 8am and returning home around 6pm..
The job is for a month - starting May 4th to June 2nd.. week days only
Care doesn't have to be at these times, happy for someone to come in from 10am till 5pm if that suits you better.. Murphy is settled to be left alone for a couple hours .. He'll have been walked and fed but you're very welcome to walk him again throughout the day in the woodlands

I hope you can help
Many thanks
Katy and Charlie and Murphy

Reviews for Katy

5 stars stars
“Katy & Charlie are the best people to house sit for and Murphy is in my top 5 dogs I have looked after (which is a lot), even though he turned out to be the culprit in the Mysterious Case of the Missing Croissant!
There were no problems and great communication between us while they were away.
They live next to fabulous mixed woods with trees of all ages, superb walks for Murphy.
Being right next to Okehampton I had a huge Co-op, Lidl and Waitrose to choose from.
I can highly recommend house sitting for Katy & Charlie.
