A friend has agreed to look after your house and pet while you are on holiday. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter: Give contact details for when you are away. Give instructions about how to care for your pet. Describe other household duties.
Dear Mike,
Thank you so much for agreeing to house-sit for me
while
I am away on my trip to Dubai. I really appreciate your assistance! I will be gone for a month, from 1st June to 30th June.
While
I am away, you can reach me on my mobile phone at +998 993429851 or via WhatsApp. I will also
be staying at the Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai, and their contact number is +97143017777. I have left a note with this
information on the kitchen door.
Regarding Fluffy, she needs to be fed twice a day
, once in the morning and once in the evening. You will find her food, Pedigree, in the kitchen pantry. Just give her a handful each time. Please also
make sure she has fresh water throughout the day
.
While
you are here, would you mind keeping an eye on the plants as well? The indoor ones only need watering once a week, but the outdoor ones need to be watered every other day
. Lastly
, please clear the mailbox every day
and keep the lawn lights on at night for security purposes.
I will be back on 30th June and I can not wait to see you then
. Thanks again for everything!
Best regards,
