    Beschreibung

    I am a 68 year old retired pediatric dentist and newly turned Grandmother ! Born and raised in the USA I have lived in Europe since the age of 17. ( England & Germany) 9 months ago I moved to the Cote d’Opale. I live with my two female Cavalier King Charles dogs who came to me through a German animal shelter 6 months ago having been rescued from a puppy mill in the Czech Republic. We are lucky enough to live in a beautiful big house from 1900 with a big garden that I spend a lot of time in and we enjoy very much. The house is only 10 minutes away from the beach ( Hardelot), 10 minutes away from the very beautiful and old harbour town Boulogne-sur-mer and very close to Le Touquet . I am learning French, but still a beginner 😁. I am also an artist and am turning my garage into an atelier/studio. The house was built in 1900 and the are several DIY projects I am working on.

    The area is great for all things involving sports or beaches, oceans like kite surfing, sailing golfing , horseback riding, bicycling, hiking and walking. There are castles and cathedrals and many museums. Many events like markets, flea markets, antique markets. One huge advantage here is the French lifestyle without being quite as expensive or as hot as southern France.

    Arbeit

    I’m looking for someone or a couple to come and stay in my house to look after my dogs and mind the place when I go to visit my children who live in London.

    My dogs are fine with being alone for 4 or 5 hours or taking walks in a nearby hiking forest but are not very comfortable with going for walks in busy places. They are traumatised and still very inexperienced with humans, having been in a cage for the 6 years they lived before being rescued.

    That is also why I will not be leaving for more than 3 to 5 days or maximally a week after seeing that they are ok with it. That’s also why I won’t be taking them to London where my children live even though theoretically I could - I just think that for the moment they feel safe here and I don’t want to confuse them.

    Also possible : logement in exchange for a little gardening or DIYing around the house. An old house always needs some « TLC- tender loving care » and I have several home improvements I’d like to do with the right skill set. But no prerequisite, lawn mowing and watering are enough.

  • Unterkunft

    Unterkunft

    3 large double bedrooms, 1 shower room, one bathroom, 2 toilets, living room , dining room and modern kitchen. 220 sq m in total without garage. Parking for 3 cars. Fenced and gated property.Many trees and birds.

    It will feel like your home, everything is here. There is a large grocery store just down the road (4 minute walk) but a car is helpful to get around in. But actually I have a good bicycle for you to use which will do well in case you do not have a car.

    Although I am very tolerant of others, for my own health’s sake I don’t drink alcohol or smoke. I was a vegetarian for a long time but currently not, I try to eat «cleanly» and am a fan of Hello Fresh .
    I offer either 1 main meal a day with hello fresh for 7 euros a day which I will cook for us when I’m home or you can organise and cook your own meals if you prefer.
