Look after two beloved dogs and house in Adeje Tenerife
Introduction
We have taken early retirement and like to travel, our two gorgeous dogs love their home and prefer to be here instead of ‘doggie hotels’.....they are easy to look after and only require regular cuddles, food and exercise. They enjoy running around the garden and playing. We’ve been in this scheme a while and have met some really lovely people.
Show more...Home & location
The accommodation for potential house sitters comprises of a self contained apartment. We are situated in Adeje and have a bus stop directly outside, therefore access to Los Cristianos or Los Gigantes (either way, as we’re between the two!) is easy. Car hire may be advisable as Tenerife is a beautiful island to explore. The weather is usually warm, all year around which is lovely.

Just to ‘live’ in the apt as you would at home, feed the dogs and take care of them with lots of love and cuddles. Ensure their safety at all times.

This was one of our best ever sits. Rosie and Trevor were generouse and friendly hosts who made our stay easy and fun in sunny Tenerife. Ronnie and Rico are two of the best and friendliest loving dogs we have met in our travels, we miss them very much. We've come away with some beautiful memories and we highly recommend this 5-star sit.

We had an absolutely brilliant time looking after Rico and Ronnie. Both dogs were very loving and obedient and easy to have around . They mostly do not leave the compound , so the usual concerns around interactions with other dogs , recall etc, don’t arise , although both were fine with other dogs and on the lead when we did take them out. Ronnie is a hilarious playful bundle of mischief who does a great welcome home dance and has sneezing fits when he gets excited, but also does calm cuddling and sleeping very well. Rico is a bit less exciteable, loves his morning brushing and cuddles when he gets to know you, and will do anything for a treat . We really enjoyed meeting Rosie and Trevor and their friends and spending time with them.They were kindness itself and great company and did everything they could to make sure we were safe and comfortable, especially since I was on my own and without a car for the first couple of weeks , so they met my plane and even bought some groceries to tide me over until they took me shopping . They were super organised and left great instructions , but were relaxed and easy to get along with , putting us in touch it’s their friends in case of emergencies whilst they were away. The friends were lovely and came down a couple of times to look after the dogs so that we could go out for longer hiking trips and explore a bit further afield without rushing back. It was great having the apartment to stay in, - not luxurious, but it is clean and comfortable , and you have your own space without needing to share or worry about the main house . There were builders working on the main house when we were there, so we didn’t get to use the chill out areas which look out from the house across the sea and banana plantations , but could see that will be a nice place to relax when the works are done. Loved the location of this sit, as easy to get up and down the coast from Los Cristianos to Los Gigantes by bus and we found some lovely quiet towns and villages inland and on the coast. Also a great location for sightseeing and hiking if you have a car, as within an hour of Teide and the lovely unspoilt towns of the North Tenerife . All in all one of the most relaxed sits we have done and would definitely recommend if you are lucky enough to get a chance to go . Thanks so much Trevor and Rosie - will very much miss running round the fountain with your lovely boys !

Rico and Ronnie are such a great duo: Rico loves lots of affection and hanging out, Ronnie is a little energetic fellow who loves chasing his ball in the courtyard of this huge property. Both are very much into their treats. The area is lovely: there's a busline right outside the front gate to take you to town, where there's nice cafes, a beach, restaurants and groceries and a pharmacy. The weather is perfect and when you return from being out, you'll get a gratifying reception from Rico and Ronnie. Rosie and Trevor are very kind and generous hosts: sitters have their own flat attached to the main house and they let me arrive early and stay on a couple of days after the sit ended. They introduced me to their friends, so there were some people to socialize with while I was there, which is great for a solo sitter. They also took me for a big grocery shop and picked up and dropped off at the airport. Dogs and owners were perfect! One of my favourite sits ever! :)

Great time in Adele with Rico and Ronnie so loving and affectionate dogs it was a pleasure to pet sit . Great hosts who collected me to and fro from the airport as I was not hiring a car . Local 437 bus stop outside the gate takes you to Los Christianos or Les Gigantes The village is lovely , Callas Salvaje is minutes away with bars and restaurants but best of all a beach area to swim . I loved this house sit and can recommend it
