Max, show cocker spaniel. He is 3 years old and he is our gorgeous rescue dog. We take him out 3 times a day, at least for a 30 minutes walk. He likes to walk in the village rather than the countryside. We fed him twice, morning and tea time.
Fish: feed them one a day, turn the light off at night.
Rat, Limbo: our elderly rat. We feed him twice a day and we take him out on a blanket or the garden when we can.
Runner ducks: feed them once a day. Every night they need to put into their shed and every morning they need t be taken out. this is to avoid being killed by pine martins, fox and other predators.

Max: We always have him on the lead unless the area is enclosed. He likes to wonder about. He does not like much other dogs and we are always careful when he encounters other dogs about. We do leave the back door open and he wonders in and out of the house. Usually stays in the garden.

Logement

We live in a detached house located next to the Crinan Canal towpath and 5 minutes from the village centre and all amenities (bus stop, shops, beach). It has a quirky garden that includes a lean-to and a shed with a few bikes.
We have a few plants inside and outside in the small greenhouse and we would appreciate if you could water them. There is a drive at the front of the house.
There is a stove in the living room and a wood store at the back of the house. The house has oil heating and hot water. The cooker /oven is electric. There are 2 bathrooms – 2 showers. One of the showers is electric, meaning the water does not have to be on to have a shower.
The kitchen has all the usual staff, microwave, oven, toaster, dishwasher, and washing machine. There isn’t a tumble drier but there is a lean-to that helps when drying clothes.

Brussels, Belgium - Octobre 2026

We had a wonderful experience, I traveled with a friend to work and discover the region. From the moment we arrived, we received a very warm welcome that immediately made us feel comfortable and at ease. Communication with Aisa was easy, friendly, and always pleasant throughout our stay. The house is lovely and a great place to spend time to work or chill, also it was perfectly located to stay with or without a car. The animals were also very sweet and a pleasure to look after, we add a lot of fun with Max ! We would highly recommend this house and pet-sitting experience and would be happy to return in the future. Thank you Aisa and Alec for trusting us and letting us feel at home !
