Descrição
Hello workawayers! In addition to hosting a Workaway I’m also looking for someone to help with the animals and household while I’m away in training for part of this summer. You won’t be alone, Corey and Alex are at home in the evenings and you will have the opportunity to spend the weekends on a boat in the beautiful Thousand Islands. With spring having arrived I can use help with garden clean up and weeding and general cleanup of brush etc outside and I always have housekeeping chores. I also have the big job of cleaning up the barnyard and other jobs and projects that come up here and there. If you love miniature horses bonus if you know how to ride so I can teach you to drive the minis in cart, dogs and cats. The animals love when we have new people staying with us! We live in a rural setting 25 minutes north of Kingston, Ontario. Our home used to be a school a long time ago and now it is two apartments which I own the entire building. I'm Chantal and I live here with my son Matthew and my Boyfriend Corey and his son Alex. We have a few animals as well, 3 dogs, 1 cat and two miniature horses. We are close to two lakes where you can go swimming, fishing, hiking etc., you can easily use a bicycle to ride to the lakes. In the summertime we also have a large boat on Lake Ontario that we spend our weekends on. You might have the opportunity to join us or spend time at our homestead enjoying the quiet with the animals. We will have different projects to work on such as painting our out building and little barn. I would love some help with the gardens as well and maybe make a plan for some new gardens and landscaping. There is also opportunity for brushing and cleaning the horses and taking them for walks. If you have horse experience I have harnesses and carts for them to go for drives.

I had to work in the garden and prepare everything for the fall. It was easy work and I could divide my day individually.
They even took me on their boat and tried to show me as much as possible on the weekend. I'll always remember this beautiful trip.… read more
