  Description

  I live in a small, cozy cottage located right on the edge of the Wild Atlantic Way in Dingle, County Kerry. The house is just a 7-minute walk from the lively center of Dingle town, where you can find great traditional music, local shops, and restaurants. It is a peaceful, scenic spot that puts the best of the coast right at your doorstep.
  
  I share my home with my three super friendly cats: Lucy, Whiskey, and Gin. They are very affectionate, low-maintenance, and love company (especially Lucy loves her snuggles, she is the mum)

  Hébergement

  The cottage works as a studio apartment.
  It is heated with a beautiful old school solid fuel stove heating the entire apartment.
  
  Pet sitters will sleep on a super cozy king size sleeper sofa bed.
  
  Fresh cozy sheets, extra linens and new duvets and pillows of course provided
  
  There is a petrol station 2 minutes away where fuel for the stove (logs, coal or brickets - not provided) and basic food supplies can be bought.
  
  Pet sitters are asked to provide for their own food. Larger Supermarkets are located in Dingle town.
  (Garveys Supervalue, Spar or Lidl)
  
  I also provide a bike with basket and trailer for transport
  
  There is an old fashioned coin electricity metre in the house taking €1 and €2 coins. A basic amount of credit will be available on the meter, everything exceeding is kindly asked to be added on my the sitter.
  To give you an idea: I use around €2 a day.

  This girly is an absolute snuggle bug. Loves her fishy whiskas and is a feisty huntress.
