Dog-sitting my Newfoundland and Huskies in in Västra Götaland, Sweden

  Description

  I am a German, living in Sweden for 6 years now. I am a dog lover living in a small house located just 5 minutes by car from Vara, Sweden. I have a modest property with a pool in the summer. I have four dogs for the moment, but I plan to have more in the future as I have more dogs up north and want to move them with me as soon as the facilities will be ready.
  
  I can pick you up and drive you to Vara. From there, you can visit the city or visit other places going with the train.
  
  I am looking for friendly and responsible volunteers who can help me take care of our dogs while I am working. As you would work with dogs, your clothes might get dirty, so you must prepare for that!
  
  The volunteer's main task will be to walk the dogs about twice a day, making sure they have enough exercise and playtime.
  
  The ideal volunteer is someone who loves dogs and enjoys spending time outdoors. Experience with dogs is preferred, but not necessary. I’ll be happy to show you around and everything you need to know about caring for the dogs.
  
  It’s better if you stay 3 weeks or more as will have a routine with the dogs and get used to you.
  
  In exchange for your help, I offer a private room with a double bed. Otherwise I can arrange something out if there are more of you. You will have access to a shared bathroom and kitchen.
  
  For the food, you can take anything you want I already have in the fridge and on the shelves. Otherwise I provide a budget to cover your food costs.
  
  You will have free time to explore the surroundings, visit Vara, or even go to Gothenburg, which is just a short train ride away.
  
  If you are interested in dog sitting and helping me out, please don't hesitate to contact me. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

  Help

  I'm looking for help looking after my 4 dogs while I'm away during the day. It's about the food and water supply. If the dogs can then walk a little round on the leash, it would be great.

  Wenn die Hunde dann noch eine kleine Runde an der Leine gehen können wäre es super.
