Our beautiful home and pets in the Isle of Skye!

Introduction

Hello - We are Vivienne & Steve. We are a busy self-employed couple (Bed & Breakfast owners & Pet care providers locally), living in a beautiful spot in the stunning Isle of Skye. We love to travel and wish to find stability for our animals and lovely home while we are away. Its important for us to connect with experienced adult sitters who can look after our beloved pets and home, but also to give the opportunity for people to experience island life here in North Skye!

Home & location

Our traditional build is 3 bedrooms, living room, kitchen, 2 shower rooms. The location is very sought after in stunning northern Isle of Skye. We have lovely outside space and stunning views. It can be wild (typical highlands) but the home is a haven for being cosy and relaxing. This home is run as a B&B with a second business also, so very well maintained and kept, but comfy and very homely too. Rooms available to our sitters would be one king bedded bedroom/shower room/living room/kitchen/utility/wc (some rooms are preferred no access, purely because they are business related and needed directly upon our return - but all this will be discussed). Because of our location, we recommend having a car as beneficial. Both for practical reasons, like reaching the shops etc, but also to be able to freely travel around beautiful Skye.

Responsibilities

We may or may not ask our sitters to look after Archie the dog, as for some of our trips we have kennels booked, but for the right sitter, we may eventually be leaving him home (discussions on Archie care to be had in detail as he is precious and has a few quirks!). Cinta requires care of feeding & company mainly. She is an independent calico cat who knows her own wee mind! The home will be prepared and ready for any sitter to begin a lovely stay. We would expect general housework duties upheld so that we can easily resume our businesses without delay on return. We ask for grass cutting and care of mouse-traps outside, maybe some general garden tidying and indoor plant watering too. We just expect the home to be kept in the way we have left it. Sitters only please, we ask that no family or friends be invited during the stays.
