Needs and animals

Big garden | Vegetable patch | 1 Dog | 1 Cat

We’re looking for a committed, puppy‑experienced sitter for 5 days.
We have two beloved pets: Ziggy, our gentle Maine Coon, and Alfie, our 4‑month‑old Cocker Spaniel puppy. Alfie is sweet, social, and still very much a energetic toddler — he needs attention, structure, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with a puppy.
What Alfie needs:
• He cannot be left alone for more than 2 hours, so this sit is ideal for someone happy to be mostly home.
• Two short walks a day in the neighbourhood.
• Lots of companionship, play, and patience. He thrives with humans who understand the work and joy of puppies.
About the home:
We live in an old, character-filled “grande dame” with a large garden and a beautiful deck — perfect if you enjoy staying close to home.
If you love animals, have real experience with puppies, and enjoy being a calm, steady presence for a little dog who adores humans, this sit will suit you.

Alfie is a Cocker Spaniel puppy, so his ears need gentle cleaning every few days, and because our property isn’t fully fenced, he must always be supervised outside (we do have an enclosed area he can use safely).

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour chez Yael dans sa jolie maison confortable avec une vue à couper le souffle. Yael nous a donné des consignes claires et faciles à mettre en œuvre pour prendre soin de Ziggy « Le magnifique ! ». C’est un gros chat adorable ! Ce fut très agréable de lui faire des papouilles. Nous remercions Yael pour sa confiance. Nous reviendrions avec plaisir ! Je recommande !

Yael and her family were friendly, welcoming, and easy to communicate with throughout, which made the sit straightforward and relaxed. Ziggy is a lovely, chatty young cat, affectionate, playful, and easy to care for. He settled into a routine quickly and was great company. The house has a beautiful view and was a pleasant place to stay. Overall, we enjoyed the sit and would happily look after Ziggy again. We’d recommend the family to other sitters.

J’ai eu le plaisir de garder Ziggy, un chat absolument adorable, dans un appartement idéalement situé, calme et très confortable. Ziggy est doux, joueur et facile à vivre — un vrai bonheur au quotidien ! L’appartement est parfaitement équipé et très agréable à vivre. Les propriétaires ont été disponibles, bienveillants et réactifs à tout moment, ce qui a rendu l’expérience encore plus fluide et plaisante. Merci encore pour leur confiance ! Je recommande sans hésiter 😊
