🌿 Dog Lovers Wanted in Peaceful Bulgarian Mountain Village 🐾
Between Stara Zagora and Plovdiv – nature, fresh air, and furry friends!
🏡 About Me & What I’m Looking For
Hello! I live in a quiet rural village surrounded by forests and mountains, between Stara Zagora and Plovdiv in central Bulgaria. It’s a peaceful area full of natural beauty — perfect for anyone who enjoys fresh air, mountain walks, and a slower pace of life.
I’m looking for caring and responsible house sitters to help take care of my three lovely dogs — Pixie, Charlie, and Ruby — while I’m away or busy. They’re friendly, affectionate, and love company.
I’d also appreciate some light help watering and tending the garden and plants to keep everything green and happy.
🐶 What I Offer
A comfortable double bedroom
Full use of the house and garden
Basic food supplies
Unlimited Wi-Fi and Netflix for your downtime
🌻 About the Area
The village is quiet and surrounded by stunning scenery — forests, hills, and open countryside. We’re within easy reach of Plovdiv, one of Europe’s oldest cities with a beautiful old town, art scene, and great cafés, and Stara Zagora, known for its parks, museums, and relaxed atmosphere.
It’s a lovely spot for walking, reading, gardening, or simply enjoying a slower rhythm of life in rural Bulgaria.

Help
I’m looking for caring and responsible house sitters to help take care of my three lovely dogs — Pixie, Charlie, and Ruby — while I’m away working .They’re friendly, affectionate, and love company.
They are small yorkshire terriers and need feeding, grooming ( hair put in bands eyes wiped clean ,brushing, and walking. They are very friendly and used to being handled. But I do need people confident with small dogs and happy to keep them in good condition.
