He is house trained with very good temperament. To walk, play, company and love him as if he is your own. Open the patio door to let him in and out for toilet and sniffing. Please keep eyes on him and don't leave him alone barking in the garden. He behaves very well when we take him to dog friendly cafes and pubs. He just sits under the table and observes other dogs and human. He is quite happy to go wherever you go if the venues allow. He is practicing to be alone, the maximum is 4 hours. Please take the wheelie bin and food waste bin out and in on Wednesday evening. Please water the plants in the dry weather. We would love you to treat our home as your own but respect our belongings.

This was such a lovely sit! Joyce and Richard were so welcoming and informative, and I felt right at home as soon as I arrived. Their house is so cozy, in a very safe, quiet neighbourhood. Xiwang is one of the cutest dogs I’ve ever met, and he is so well-trained! He’s also a great tour guide, taking me on some really lovely walks in the area. He’s amazing company, and was always by my side

I had a great sit with Xiwang! Xiwang is an adorable little pup that has lots of energy. The house it only a 10 minute bus to town, to the station and there are lots of walking spots near by. Parents were easy to communicate with at all times and I had a great time!
