  • Description

    Description

    Our quiet west London neighbourhood is one of the happiest places in the UK to live. We have two female golden retrievers (mother 6 years and daughter 3 years) and an elderly cat who need sitting the last three weeks in September. We have a small garden which needs watering. We are walking distance to a London Underground and mainline station. Close to the river Thames and Richmond Park, cafes, shops and restaurants. Our dogs are loving and we walk them twice daily. Workaway guest (one person or a couple considered) will have a private double bedroom and bathroom upstairs in our mid-terrace Victorian house on a quiet residential street.
