  Description

  Hi, we’re Aga and Tony!
  
  Aga is a big foodie who loves cooking (and feeding everyone around her!). She’s on a sabbatical at the moment, spending her time volunteering, exploring what comes next, and practicing Vipassana meditation. Tony is happily retired and enjoys being outdoors, especially golfing and cycling.
  
  We’re planning a 3–4 month trip around Asia, starting from mid of November. We are looking for someone kind to care for our home and, most importantly, our two dogs (and some plants)

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  English culture is on your doorstep: football grounds, Stretford Hall and more. In our absence, you can benefit from my local library card.
  Nature is right on the doorstep with direct access to Stretford Meadows, the River Mersey walks, and the Trans Pennine Trail — perfect for dog walks or just some fresh air.
  All attractions of Manchester are easily accessible with public transport, 5 mins walk from us.

  Aide

  Our main priority is the care of Roxy and Toffee, who are happiest with their regular routine:
  • Walks: At least twice a day, 1.5 hours total
  • Feeding: Twice daily (dry food)
  • Plants: Watering around 20 indoor pots
  • Home: Keeping the house secure, clean, and cared for as if it were your own
  
  Since the sit is over the Christmas and New Year period, we’re flexible — our friend can care for the dogs during that time, and the house can be left empty if you’d like to make other arrangements for the holidays.

  Hébergement

  Our home is comfortable, welcoming, and well-located in Manchester. We’re close to Man U station and Old Trafford cricket ground, with a tram and bus stop nearby. The local shopping center (Aldi, Greggs, Home Bargains, and more) is just a 10-minute walk away, and the motorway is close for easy travel.
  
  Inside, you’ll find:
  • A cozy living room with a fireplace (!)
  • Garden and light-filled conservatory
  • King-size bed in the main bedroom
  • Walk-in wardrobe room (also doubles as a yoga space)
  • Converted attic and 3 bedrooms
  • Modern walk-in shower and two toilets
  • All essentials: well equipped kitchen, fridge, freezer, WiFi, etc.
  No smoking in the house please.

  Mes animaux

  

  Toffee (7 ans)

  Toffee (8) is the clever one. Food is her weakness, so nothing can be left on the table or near the counter edge! On walks, she likes to guard her space and may loudly “tell off” other dogs if they come too close, but it’s harmless and easily managed with treats (her favorite thing in the world).

  

  Roxy (9 ans)

  Roxy (10) is an angel of a dog — sweet, playful, and young at heart. She lives to please, loves chasing balls (and squirrels!), and may bark when she’s excited or looking for attention. Around other dogs she’s very gentle and submissive, so no problems there.
