North East - Durham

LEIGH

Hello. We hope to welcome you to look after our two friendly,small female dogs. Both are fully vaccinated,house trained and very good company. They like cuddles and smiles. They' re aged 3 years and 14 years approx. They are healthy.and have two walks and meals a day. Bobbles is a Patterdale and Mimi is a Forever Home girl from Spain . We also live by a field that has 2 horses in (They don't belong to us !!) but they're great to feed carrots to at times !! We also have 5 pondfish....that require very little human company !!..We live in a beautiful area with great transport links both North and South. Any questions ? Please ask and we're happy to answer them... Thanks and fingers crossed. x..
We live in an area that is located within easy travel distance to Durham,Newcastle,Sunderland,Hartlepool .It has good bus services to all of those places and Spennymoor itself has plenty of shops and pubs,cafes, restaurants etc.
Our home is well looked after and we love being here. It has a driveway for parking and is in a quiet private road. .We have great neighbours who would help in any way with info. etc. Look forward to hearing from you....Leigh and Jack..

Leigh and Jack welcomed me to their stylish and extremely comfy home the day before they set off on their trip and ran through all the things I needed to know. They also supplied a folder full of useful info relating to the sit and the surrounding area. However, it has to be said, the star of the show was Mimi, their little Spanish rescue who was a dream to take care of. She was sad at first having recently lost her doggie sister but soon came round, settled down nicely and in no time at all, ... MORE

I enjoyed two weeks in Spennymoor, Durham minding 2 sweet dogs.. Mimi & Bunty. They were very well behaved & they showed me some local walks. Leigh & Jack were good hosts in their comfortable house. Durham itself with cathedral & castle is a wonderful place to visit

We had a lovely time looking after gorgeous Bunty & Mimi, who were very well behaved! They were happy to walk locally or go with us in the car. We visited lots of local attractions and had lovely walks with them. The house was spotless and had everything we needed.

2 lovely girls to look after. We had a great time looking after Mimi and Bunty. The dogs were very well behaved, the home felt like home, we enjoyed the surrounding area. The info Leigh provided was perfect. Friendly neighbours. Thank you Leigh and Jack for choosing us.

I found it very easy to communicate and get on with Leigh and Jack which made arranging and undertaking the house sit very simple. There dogs are lovely with placid temperaments and easy to look after and they live near Durham which is a beautiful city, there are lovely local walks and interesting places to visit in the area.
