    Description

    Exactly halfway between the centre of Rome and the centre of Firenze, our farm home sits on the borders of a nature reserve. We are relocating for 6 months to Brazil for work, and we are looking to find someone who will take care of the dogs, the farm and the house. Our house is a heaven for remote workers looking for a peaceful backdrop, but also for small families with very young children. The two dogs are females. One is a classic black labrador, ideal for families, and the other is a mixed "wind-hound". The dogs should be fed and walked every day, twice a day. Other than that, you can take the bus to study Italian in Orvieto, hike or ride the bicycles in the almost car-less roads, or take day trips with the nearby train to Rome, Firenze or beyond. We will provide all accomodation needs, including food and "the bear necessaties of life" ...:-).
