Sixpenny Handley, South West England

About this house sitting position in Sixpenny Handley

The address could possibly change to Long Lawford in Rugby as we are in the very slow process of moving :)
I am a carer at our home and my partner works away during the week, a lot of weekends also.
I care for a lovely young fella with MH issues and mild LD, therefore i need someone who is kind, but firm as he will be staying here. He is very independent, cooking for himself, and attending most appointments on his own on the bus, but there maybe the odd time he needs support with recipes etc. Usually, he would go into respite when we are away but he has expressed an interest in staying here so his routine isn't blown out of the water. So, we are testing the water. There is no nursing involved, and you can come and go as you please, as long as Charlie is tended to and not left for too long. There will be a remuneration for this of £50 a day.
We have a dog, Charlie, he would love his ball thrown for him at least once a day, in the vast space just behind our home. He loves walks without his ball too, and there's quite a few to choose from round these parts.
This is probably a little different to the usual home sitting slots out there, so, if you fancy something different, please get in touch - we also need someone from 7th to 19th October 2018
Friendly dogs also welcome:) Kids also welcome as long as you don't mind bunking with them in the superkingsize bed ;) Read more...
