IELTS GT: request to look after the house and pet on holiday

Hi All,

Here is my informal letter writing...please give some comments, thanks!

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 John,

Thank you in advance for taking care of my home and lovely dogs when I'm on vacation. Remember to reserve a night for my dinner treat! Here are some details I'd like you to drop down when I am away.

I'll turn off my cell phone during the trip. For any urgent matters, please leave a message at my mobile number 91234567, or send an email. Besides, could you please take my adorable

chihuahua to bath once a day, clean her dog poops twice a day, and don't forget to bring her to the park for a walk every morning. The park is located next to the shopping centre under my flat.

I believe there are some more home duties to do as well. Feeling nervous? Keep calm please, my requests are only to sweep the floor and mop the floor on every Sunday. Be careful as the floor is laminated!

Guess what? I'll buy a gift to you - your favourite Godiva dark cholocate assortion. I can't wait to meet you very soon after the trip!

Best Wishes,
