    Description

    Hello everyone,

    I live in beautiful Kingston , Ontario. My property is located in a private , quiet, and country like area next to a forest with hiking trails. Also very close to the main highway that connects Toronto to Montreal.
    I have a large vegetables garden area and I have chickens, a friendly dog, a cat and 2 goats.
    My place feels like being in the middle of nature but so close to the town. It's the advantage of having everything in one place.

    Help

    What I basically need is someone very responsible to watch and feed my pets for the last week of July and the month of August .
    This involves feeding the chickens , the 2 goats , the dog and cat twice a day, ensuring they have fresh water . Everything is well organized and fenced in. The chickens , 2 goats and the dog have their own area with a fence and gate.
    The cat is an outdoor cat and likes it on its own.
    It really takes about 15 min each time for all this chores.
    Other than that, you are free to relax, unwind, enjoy the beautiful summer, take a walk in the forest, use one of the bicycles , or if you like to go kayaking there is a nice lake 8 min drive away.

    Another requirement could be to water the vegetables garden once in a while, when doesn't rain. There will be of course fresh eggs and vegetables available.

    What else ...

    The easiest way of getting around here in Canada is by car. There is no bus service close to my house.
    I have bicycles available and possibly my vehicle, it can be discussed.

    My house is absolutely a non smoking environment and I like to keep everything in place and tidy.
