Testimonials
Peaceful haven in comfy house with adorable pets
We house and pet set for Bill and Sandie in December last year and it was a very enjoyable experience. The two dogs are very easy to look after despite some behavioural issues due to their backgrounds (Freddie likes to bark at passing cars and Molly takes a while to get used to you and come out of her shell). Harry the car does as he pleases and will happily sit on your lap all evening but doesn't always tolerate a lot of petting! The chickens are very easy to look after as they have a purpose built hen house with automatic door and are easy to clean and maintain. The house itself is deceptively large with a nicely laid out garden and grounds and plenty of areas to sit and relax. Although quite modern the house still has lots of character and we found it very comfortable and well equipped. The property backs onto a large open meadow which is surrounded by woodland and the dogs are happy either running around in the meadow or walking through the forest. It's a very tranquil location but there are several nearby towns for shopping or sightseeing. Bill and Sandie themselves were very friendly and helpful and kept in regular contact with us, answering any questions we had in a timely manner. We have no hesitation in recommending this house-sit to other potential sitters.
