We need a house sitter

East Wales - Powys

Jo

We live in a detached house down a very quiet lane, near the small busy town of Welshpool. We have the canal and a nature reserve on our doorstep. There are lots of things to do in the area, depending on your interests. There are at least 3 national trust homes/castles to visit.The historic town of Shrewsbury is approx 12 miles away, which has many points of interest, Oswestry is approx 10 miles, with Llangollen and Wrexham approx 25 miles I would like someone to spend time at my home caring for my 2 dogs. 1 is a 7 years old bearded collie cross who spends most of his time outside.The other dog is a friendly, bouncy 1 year old, who is up for walks and meeting people and other dogs, she is obsessed with ball play.. We have a cat called Minnie who is 18 yrs and a bit deranged with old age, just needs feeding and cat litter emptying as she spends most of her time sleeping somewhere in the house! We have 3 geese (friendly) Approx 20 Chickens, and 1 peacock that will need letting out in the morning,feeding and then shut in at night. We also have a cockatiel named Ozzie, who needs human attention, he loves to sing and can talk a little.
My animals are the priority.
We do have a large garden/allotment- I am happy for you to do as much or as little as you would like, (although watering is essential if needed).
I am preferably looking for someone who is happy to spend time at home with our old dog keeping her company and in our garden.
We have older children who live in a self contained flat above our carport- they will be here some of the time, however they work at the hospital as a trainee nurse so will be out for vast parts of the day- they will be able to answer any questions or concerns when about and will be happy to help should you need them.

Absolutely loved housesitting for Jo and her family. We had great communication with Jo all the time. The dogs Maggie and Teddy were very friendly, and easy to look after and take for walks. Minnie the cat, very easy and let you know what she wanted. The house and property is amazing and location is great for exploring the Welsh and English countryside. Would definitely recommend housesitting for Jo and family if an opportunity came up. Thanks again Jo and Co :) Mark and Tony
