About this house sitting position in Wareham

Looking for a couple to look after our home and 2 gorgeous beagles whom we adore! My husband and I work from home so they are with us almost all of the time and don't like to be left on their own for too long. If we do go out for a couple of hours we always take them for a long walk beforehand. One beagle is still a puppy so needs stimulation. Otherwise they rule the house. They are affectionate and good natured but be warned these are beagles so any food left unattended (or near the edge of the counter) will be eaten! They get fed in the morning between 7 and 8am, we take them for a walk around 12:00 and give them dinner around 5pm. They sleep in the kitchen, the puppy (currently 7 months old) can't always hold it in to go to the loo so we leave a puppy pad out just in case, it is hit and miss, this should all be rectified by October. During the day and evening, if the back door is open he will go outside. Belle (3 year old) can be a bit grumpy after 8pm, does not always appreciate being moved, picked up or annoyed by Buster but for the most part they get on well. Buster is the sweetest boy you will ever meet. We have a detached 4 bedroom home in a culdesac in a small town at the entrance to the Jurassic/Purbeck coast. Poole is only 15 minutes drive away with multiple beaches within 25 minutes from our home. We also have an amazing forest behind us 3 minutes drive away. Read more...
