3 cute doggies near Raleigh, NC. Restaurants and breweries within easy walking
Introduction
We are a retired couple living in Fuquay (Fewkway) Varina, NC with our 3 rescue dogs.. Our dogs love to lounge about and sleep in our (king size) bed with us. They are all small dogs (total weight of less than 60 lbs). They are trained to an invisible fence, although we don't usually leave them outside when we leave.
Show more...Home & location
Our 100+ year old home is a ten minute walk from downtown Fuquay which has several nice restaurants, an amazing bakery, and several craft breweries. The community center which has a splash pad water park is 5 minutes in the opposite direction. F-V is about a 30 minute drive to Raleigh, the capitol of NC. The nearest beach is only about an hour and a half drive, so makes a great day trip. You will need a car to get to a large supermarket. There are several within about 3 miles. Our house has 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths (steam shower in the master bath), a huge welcoming front porch perfect for relaxing with a glass of lemonade (or wine), as well as a screened back porch, and almost an acre.

The dogs are amazingly loving and well behaved. However, I encountered something s as it relates to the house and dog’s health that I wish I knew prior to the sit. Gina and her husband are very kind!

All three pups were wonderful and Gina and Dick were incredibly accommodating. It was my first sit on THS and I don’t think I could have found a better place to visit! Just make sure to take Pandy out by leash once or twice, she took the longest to warm up to me but after 2 days or so she was an great behavior. Would definitely sit again!

We had the pleasure of house-sitting Gina's three small dogs in her early-1900s house with beautiful antiques. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood and is surrounded by a large yard. The dogs are very friendly and well-behaved, and they love to cuddle. The house is beautiful, with high ceilings and a modern farmhouse-style kitchen. The steam shower was an unexpected treat! Cute little Pandy was my constant companion, jumping into my lap when she could and snuggling all night. Wile E has the biggest heart for a little guy! He attached to Patrick and followed him everywhere. Pitman has a laid-back, noble personality -- he is an expert at finding places to sleep. He's so very soft and we spent lots of time just petting and admiring him. Gina was a gracious and responsive host. The nearby downtown area was quite charming as well. We had a great time and would definitely recommend this sit. Thanks, Gina and family!

Wile E and Pitman warmed up to me pretty immediately. Pandy took a few days and even ran away from me outside out of rebellion. Thankfully someone down the street got a hold of her and brought her back 20 minutes later. Once Pandy and I were friends, she followed me around everywhere. Her & Wile E were thick as thieves quick to investigate any movement outside especially when the mailman or cleaners would stop by. Pitman was just chill. He would lay outside for hours basking in the sun. Living his best live! The neighbors were friendly and helped me out when I ended up getting my car snuck in the mud. The 3 weeks truly went by in a flash!

Fun, relaxed house sit and pet sit in a beautiful home that is within walking distance to breweries, restaurants, and coffee shops. Pitman and Wile E. Are very sweet and easy to care for. They'll want to snuggle with you!
