Pet Sitter needed for 1 Teacup Yorkshire Terrier and one big & lively Yorkie/Border Terrier cross!

Introduction

We are a couple in our early 70's, and have one little (but overweight) Yorkie girl, Daisy, and a bigger lively Yorkie/Border Terrier cross, Lily. They have free roam of the house and a cat flap so can come and go as they please. Jill is retired and Stewart is still working but is self-employed.

Home & location

We are in a small village in the heart of Somerset between Street (for Clark's Village) and Somerton, within easy reach of Wells, Glastonbury, Cheddar and Wookey Hole. We are near to the seaside towns of Burnham-on-Sea and Weston Super Mare on the Bristol Channel, and close to the Dorset coast. The walks around the village are stunning. We have a Post Office in the village, but no shop. The nearest shops are in Street or Somerton (3 and 4 miles respectively) The house is a 2-storey bungalow of rustic design, and sitters will have their own upstairs bedroom and bathroom. There is a large back patio with a gazebo, large garden (not grassed), and a paddock to the side with our ducks. These need to fed and watered every day. We have all mod cons, including wifi and Sky TV (basic package). Mobiles will not work in most of the village, but will work in the house if you are on EE or have wifi calling.

Responsibilities

The dogs need to be fed twice a day - usually midday and at 10.30pm (both times can be changed to suit sitters arrangements/plans. They have no medical issues and all food is provided. They do not need to be walked unless the sitter wants to. They have a cat-flap, so are independent around the house and garden. A cleaner comes in every Wednesday morning for 3 hours. We have, at the moment, 14 ducks. These are in a paddock next to our house. They need to be shut up at sunset, and fed, watered and let out in the mornings. Apart from this, and generally keeping the dogs company, there are no other responsibilities.
