    Description

    I have been traveling around South + Central America with my black lab Miku for the past 3 years —
    We currently have a lovely little house in Uvita, a great beach + surf town in Central Costa Rica.

    I am looking for someone kind and trustworthy to look after him while I am visiting home or trekking in the mountains!

    At the moment, I am looking for these dates:

    June 7-June 23

    Dog-sitting + housesitting!


    The only job will be looking after my black lab Miku. He is very sweet and well-trained and gets along with everyone — he just needs to be walked 2-3 times a day.

    I would prefer someone who enjoys going on long walks/runs already, as he definitely loves the exercise. There are rivers and waterfalls nearby you can bring him to, but the neighborhood is very walkable as well.
