What responsibilities are required of the house sitter

We have a young Labrador retriever who will require a long walk every day whatever the pennine weather has to offer! she is still young & whilst obedient only needs the slightest of destractions, dog, sheep etc. so has to be kept on the lead.

What are the good features of the property and location

Our three bed detached house sits in beautiful open countryside overlooking the local beauty spot of Hardcastle Craggs, it is two miles from Hebden Bridge & close to Haworth, Skipton etc. The property is accessed by a private track set away from the nearest road next to a footpath which gives access to open moorland, it sits in its own grounds & is very peaceful & quiet. The nearest small town of Hebden Bridge has won a number of national awards & has many bars & restaurants.

What does the house sitter need to consider before applying for this assignment

The property is situated away from local amenities so a car would be essential, a good level of fitness is required as the area is in the Pennine hills & our dog needs regular exercise. The property stands on its own & is very quiet so townies beware! It has it's own water supply which is treated on entering the property.

Can I bring my own pets?

No, sorry.
