Needs and animals

Pet-sitting | Pool maintenance | 2 Dogs | 1 Cat | Fish

We have got a black Labrador cross who loves her cuddles and a white Swiss Alsatian. They are being walked morning and evening and fed after our dinner. They sleep in the house and both need a wash once a week. The cat comes and goes as she pleases and has got a 5 day cat feeder. The 4 fish in their bowl just need a tiny a bit of food each day. Watering of plants out- and indoors, a little weeding and mowing only when needed. The Pool will be covered from October till May so no need of looking after unless you fancy a swim yourself! In our area you will need a car there public transport is not great. The small road we live in is not easy for camper-vans but possible with care. At the end of the house sit please leave the house as clean as you found it that will be very much appreciated.

We live in a calm and green environment at the bottom of a village with another 4 villages nearby us. When I drive up our lane I appreciate every time that we live in such a beautiful area. We have a farmers market nearby also the supermarket (walking distance of around 15-20 min.) and other shops are also very close. When we take the dogs for a walk we walk between allotments were people grow there vegetables while having a magnificent view of our Village with its castle. 10 Minutes down the road we got a big lake, streams and forest. The centre of Cannes and Fréjus and the beach are 40 minutes away by car and 45 minutes to Nice aerport. The house is open spaced easy to keep and our female dogs will love you with our little timid female cat who likes a stroke.

Superbe séjour, une famille très accueillante et sympathique et des animaux très bien éduqués. La maison est très jolie, confortable et très propre. Région superbe.

We got a warm welcome from Nienke and her family with a delicious meal. They are a very laid back and hospitable family where it is really easy to feel welcome. The dogs are gorgeous, very well behaved, and they really seemed to enjoy the walks we took them for, while as the cute cat is very independent and rather shy - when we saw her. The house is beautifully situated, just below the perched Provencal village of Callian - just about half an hour from the Mediterranean coast. It is very comfortable and easy to manage, has a big and beautiful garden and a big patio for meals in the sun. We would love to come back whenever it suits Nienke's and our schedules. A house sit at Nienke's house is a breeze.
