To look after my dog, 8 hens and house sit, we are totally flexible with dates
Introduction
My partner and I work from home and have not been able to get away much recently as we don't like to leave the dog. So it would be nice to be able to have a few breaks with peace of mind. We are not tied into dates so anyone who can offer to house sit let us know dates that suit you.

Tanya and Sandy are amazing people who welcomed us into their home to look after Lucy and the chooks. They made sure we had everything we might need, including suggestions for walks nearby and sights to see. The birdlife is so varied with many different birds at the feeders in their garden and wild pheasants in the yard. The red squirrels were a special treat! Dollar is a lovely little town with Dollar Glen and Castle Campbell to wander around nearby and some really neat historic places not far away. Lucy is such a gentle girl, very well behaved, and a pleasure to walk on and off lead. If you throw the ball you're her friend for life! We have no hesitation in recommending this sit. Just lovely, we had a wonderful time with Lucy and will return if lucky enough to be invited. Thank you for having us.

We had a great experience housesitting for Tanya and Sandy over the Christmas period!. The house is lovely and spacious, located on a beautiful quiet location just outside Dollar with nice walks right on the doorstep and Castle Campbell only 10 mins away. We looked after Buddy, a gorgeous, playful and very obedient dog, and 13 hens that gave us delicious organic eggs each morning. We really enjoyed feeding the birds and the red squirrels too. We had Christmas goodies waiting for us on arrival: mince pies, chocolates, wine and food and we felt very welcome in this home. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to housesit in Scotland!

Had a wonderful housesit at Tanya and Sandy’s and was actually sad to be leaving. Buddy was adorable and he was so much fun to be around. I also loved looking after the hens and had great breakfasts from the eggs they laid. Tanya was a delight to deal with and made Chris and I so welcome. I hope we can sit again for then
