About this assignment

HI!! Looking for mature person who likes living remotely, or a couple, to take care of my super standard poodle. Must have car.

This is a last minute trip being organised. Still in synchronisation with getting house sitter and coordinating flights. Dates currently 18th Dec - 14th Jan. But if you are open to extension, the dates could extend to end of January (29th), but no further.

Our home is a welcoming, comfortable, tranquil retreat and perfect spot to enjoy autumn and nature. This is my family's homeland. It is a natural retreat in a bubble of nature surrounded by woodlands. We are just moments away from the town of Cheltenham in the famous hub of the Cotswolds.

The Cotswolds is a beautiful location in the UK, filled with festivities and places to visit, cafes and good restaurants.

I am Mom to Henry, the Standard Poodle. I need good company for him, daily walks and care, plus eyes on the house and house plants (green fingers a plus!)

You DO NEED a car as there is no public transport.

This is a perfect place for working nomads, creatives, writers, hikers and of course nature lovers.

No other guests to visit or stay please.

Please message me with any questions and I am happy to answer.

Thank you for considering, your help and support is appreciated.

What responsibilities are required of the house sitter

Took look after my Henry (Standard Poodle), take him for daily walks and keep him company. He will love keeping you company. He loves being with people and interacting

Took keep general eye on the house and water house plants

What are the good features of the property and location

We have many country walks. Close to Cleeve Common with amazing views above Cheltenham. Great restaurants and cafes. Many famous Cotswold towns near by. April is start of the famous Cheltenham festivals, like Jazz, literature, science.

What does the house sitter need to consider before applying for this assignment

They need to have a car. Even though we are close to town center there is no public transport. We are in the countryside, not a village or town.

Can I bring my own pets?

No, sorry.

Testimonials

Holly & Henry are the Best!

When it comes to pet-sitting assignments, it doesn't get any better than this. I told Holly last year, but I will say it again for the Mindmyhouse.com audience. One can't help but be charmed by the property, by the Cotswolds, the quality of the air and the tranquility of the space that Holly has curated. But Henry is the reason that you put this opportunity at the top of your list. Every day is a one-of-a-kind adventure when you have the privilege of romping around the countryside with this chap. If you really do love dogs, then don’t doubt for a second that this young man will change your life forever. He is the epitome of this whip-smart breed. I would have taken him with me, if I could have. Thank you, Holly! I am forever grateful for the experience. My time at Cedar House was magical from the moment that we left the train station until the day that I left. Cheers!
