  Beschreibung

  We are now looking for a sitter/sitters for a couple of days in July 2024. We don't have set dates but would just like to get a away for a couple of days - maybe four days/three nights (we usually ask sitters to come the day before we leave on our trip, and we are happy if you need to stay the night on the day we get back).
  
  We are a British couple living in NE Slovenia, just outside the second city Maribor. It is a semi-rural location, five km from a small town and ten from the city. It's a good area for walking and cycling, gentle hills and very green.
  
  We have a lovely dog Molly who is a rescue from Romania. She is around 14/15 years old now and takes it very easy now. She has some problems with the stairs in our house and we don't take her on long walks. We need someone who will be patient with her, take her for short walks and see to her food and medicine (she has medicine to make sure she doesn't make puddles on the floor).

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  As mentioned already, we are looking for a responsible pet and housesitter. We are not looking for a big commitment. You will be free to do pretty much as you want so if you are looking for a relaxed time, this is the place for you if your last Workaway place involved lots of physical work, you can expect a rest here). If you are looking for cultural activities, you will find much in the city and surrounding area - castles, museums, events in the city.

  Arbeit

  We are looking for a housesitter or housesitters who could be company for Molly, take her for a couple of walks a day so we can go have a couple of days away. We'd also ask you to water the vegetable garden if there's no rain and to pick anything that's ready for picking.

  Unterkunft

  You will be staying in our little house. As you will be housesitting, you will have full use of the kitchen. We will provide food basics (pasta, rice, milk, canned essentials, tea, coffee and a selection of fresh fruit and vegetables and cheese) when we leave. You will have to top up as needed or if you want anything extra.
  
  We have a small pool where you can cool off when it's hot.

  Was noch ...

  There is a weekday bus service to the city. There are two options for different buses: one is about 700 metres away but you have to walk up a hill. At weekends you will have to walk about three kilometres for a bus. You can use our bikes. If you have a car, there is a covered place to park it. There are a couple of bars within a short walk and one of them is attached to a convenience store. PLEASE NOTE: due to issues with housesitters in the past, we must stress that you need to be independent to do this housesit. The buses mostly run during the day on weekdays. We will provide bus times, but you will need to plan if you don't have your own vehicle. There are buses from the city back to the house in the evening but there are gaps of a couple of hours between buses.
