We need a house sitter

Bay of Plenty - Tauranga

Jacqui

The house is located very close to the beach, private beach access is across the road. Very quiet street, close to amenities in the area. I have 2 English springer spaniels (Skye and Buddy) Skye is 2yrs and Buddy will be 7 Months old.

The dogs can only be left for 3 hours in the day on their own so would need someone who works from home or is able to be with them. They are really great with people and other dogs, they love playing with each other and going for walks if you are confident handling two at one time on a lead.

They know the heel command when walking on a lead and respond well to treats, Skye has good recall off leash, Buddy is still learning so in open space areas that aren't fenced and secure they need to be on a lead/long lead. They know basic commands and love affection and cuddles. Buddy sleeps in his crate, and Skye will sleep on the bed with me, but she can also sleep on a bed on the floor. They are really easy to look after and are eager to please. They are used to having me to themselves most of the day as I work from home, so they like cuddles and being treated as family members, including sitting on the couch with me at night when I watch the telly.

I would appreciate if the plants are watered and there is very minimal gardening that is required.
