Rural Home, Small Community Setting, Close to the Mountains | Coalgate, Canterbury

  • 20th February 2025 - 6th March 2025
  • 14 days

Description

We need a housesitter for our rural home in Coalgate. Coalgate is a small community with access to some sweet tourist spots in Canterbury.

We need some dog lovers! We have two dogs. Alfie – Small (Pug x Westie) and Maria – Medium (Springer Spaniel, takes time to warm up to people)

There are not many walking requirements as they will be satisfied with backyard fetch if you are on a busy schedule. They are content to be home during the day if you are out on adventures, but I will disclose that they don’t like to be left home alone in the dark for very long. Maria has a strange habit of howling (only when the sun goes down if shes alone).
