About this house sitting position in Canterbury

Single level 1910 Edwardian house, recently renovated and updated.
Accommodation consists of 2 bedrooms, a sitting room and a large open plan dining family/kitchen room (all just renovated )
Two gorgeous Lhasa Apso dogs to walk and care for
White one, male aged 4 1/2 named Leo whom I got as a puppy so he is very well adjusted and happy, friendly, loves everyone, good watch dog,
Female is Lily, aged 12 who was a rescue I took on 7 years ago and is still a little of wary of people even after all this time. But she is a beautiful dog, soft and gentle and also a good watch dog ( it’s in the breed) .
She gets on well with Leo and they both sleep on my bed together!
Both dogs will be groomed prior to the start of the sit. They are non shedding and well behaved.
Applications from single females in the 50 to 80 age group preferred.
Garden watering required if no rain
Thank you for your interest.

“My sit at Jennifers was lovely. She has an outstanding home with a beautiful garden. It was a pleasure looking after it but the best part was being with Lilly and Leo. They were easy keepers and very entertaining. They have their own entry-way and came and went as they pleased. We developed a pattern for our days, where we went to the park early and did two architectural walks, one in the afternoon and one in the evening, weather permitting of course. In the afternoon walked down the Main Street for coffee. If you have to visit Walmart you can walk or take the trolly. If you are lucky enough to receive an invitation from Jennifer, I am sure you will love everything about it. ”

Thank you so much Ann . You were lovely with the dogs and they miss you. Ever time I get up they think it's another walk! They are putting the pressure on me to walk them 3 times a day. I'm really sorry you can't come in September Jenny
