Introduction

We are Ruth and Peter and we have two friendly dogs, one cat and three chickens in East Sussex. Historically we have left the pets with friends when we have gone away, but as we are travelling more often it can be difficult to find someone

Home & location

We live in a 4-bedroom detached house on a 2-acre plot, in the countryside, surrounded by open fields and wild deer. The property is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) with several National Trust properties in the vicinity and

Responsibilities

The 2 dogs are the best of friends and like to be walked and fed morning and evening. They like company in the day but can be left for a few hours or will happily go with you in the car. They like to roam around the garden all the time
