Needs and animals

1 Cat

Smokey, our cat, is three years old. The main reason we want a house-sitter is so that he has some company and someone to feed and water him. We also have a dozen or so indoor plants and some outdoor pots which need watering once in a while. The grass may need mowing - it depends on the weather. There is both a small mower and a larger sit-on mower.

House

We live in a single-storey, two bedroom house with under-floor heating. The house is on a hillside overlooking the small town of Aurignac (see picture) with a great view of the Pyrenees (see picture). We have a garden of about one acre. The spare bedroom and bathroom are ready for our sitter. This is a rural part of France, with gentle rolling hills, lovely views and many good walks. It's very peaceful, but with several good restaurants within an easy drive. Our main city, Toulouse, is about one hour away. The Spanish border is just over and hour's drive away. The TV gets all the main UK channels and we have a good selection of DVDs. There are about 2000 books - mostly novels - in the study. This is a non-smoking household. Our house is about 1.5 km from the town of Aurignac which has a selection of shops and restaurants. There is a medium-sized supermarket on the edge of town. There are several larger towns with better shopping and eating within a 20km radius. We would be happy to pick up our sitter(s) from Toulouse airport and …

This part of France is well off the main tourist track, but that is part of its charm. Beautiful countryside. Lots of very old towns with long histories. There are many great walks including up into the Pyrenees

Where to start to describe our guarding in Aurignac; the magnificent landscape with the Pyrenees, the sunsets or moonrises, the greenery, the flowers and now the highlight: Smokey who comes running towards us. But be careful, it limits the time for caresses, you must not overdo the good things in life! We were warmly welcomed into their beautiful home with everything we needed. They were most generous in leading us in various activities and support throughout our stay. Transportation to and from the airport was very appreciated. The village, with its shops, accessible on foot as well as several departures on marked trails. The frequency of trains to Toulouse or other destinations allows us to visit the region. We, complete strangers, were treated like old friends. Thanks Mark and Ruth!

Mark and Ruth are the sweetest, kindest people . They welcomed us in their house and made sure we had every comfort and all information necessary . The few times we had a question they responded immediately . They showed us around,picked us up and brought us back to the airport and borrowed us their car. The sweetest, no doubt

Mark et Ruth nous ont gentiment accueilli chez eux autour d'un bon repas. Ce sont des personnes très sympathiques qui ont pensé à tout pour notre confort. Nous avons eu toutes les informations nécessaires à l'oral, écrites dans un porte-vues et Mark nous a même emmené dans le village pour nous montrer les endroits importants. La communication fut agréable durant le séjour. Leur maison est un vrai cocon où chacun se sentira bien. Smokey a été vraiment adorable, il nous manque beaucoup ! Nous espérons pouvoir revenir un jour !
