    Description

    I am in need of a workawayer willing to stay in my house for the month of July (dates can be flexible) to house sit and look after my two dogs. Snoop and Honey are pomeranian mixes, they love being outside and having one to one play with their favourite toys and are full of energy, while also loving cuddling on your lap and having the laziest of days. Not great with cats or unfamiliar dogs. They are genuienly two of the most affectionate dogs you'll ever meet. In need of a workawayer who loves dogs and is willing to be there to feed them and let them out to the garden and play with them during the day, and snuggle them at night. They would fine by themselves during the afternoon/evening time as long as they arent left alone for any more than maybe 6 hours at a time so you can arrange your scheduile around that any way you would like. The house is a quaint little bungalow located in a picturesque countryside location 10 minutes outside of Newry city in Northern Ireland offering the convenience of city living along with the tranquility of countryside access, standing on the Clanrye river in counties Down and Armagh. Nestled at the head of Carlingford Lough and framed by two Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty—the majestic Mourne Mountains and the mystical Ring of Gullion - Newry City is a unique destination packed with charm, history, and warm hospitality. If you're looking to digest some culture, the Newry and Mourne Museum will offer great insight into the past. Or if you're searching for beautiful landmarks the Newry Cathedral or Narrow Water Castle are all great tourist attractions worth visiting. Our location is near the border with the Republic of Ireland, and is only a 15 minute bus ride to Dundalk town, also full of rich irish culture, with lots of historical sites and areas of natural beauty - and if youre interested in seeing some traditional live music, The Spirit Store in Dundalk is one of the best regarded pubs for live music. Definitely a worthwhile stop. And for anyone wanting to explore wider Ireland, Newry is on the main route between the bustling city of Belfast (50 minute train ride) and the capital of Ireland - Dublin City (1 hr 20 minute train ride).
