    Description

    Hi! We are a family of 4 plus our loyal and friendly fur companion. We have a beautiful newer house on 1.25 acres near the Mighty Miramichi River. We are surrounded by nature, beautiful beaches and amazing bass fishing! Eating lobster is a favourite pastime :D
    We are looking for childcare help with our toddler while we work from home. Some light housework and possibly some yard work help (depending on the season!) would also be appreciated. But we love to cook and eat well! Access to canoe and paddle board in the summer and toboggans and snow shoes in the winter!

    Violet (12 years)

    Violet is our senior dog. She is 12 years old and is still a pretty active girl who loves going for walks and of course napping! She will be excited to meet you and then settle down on her mat for a long nap and you won't even notice she's there. She will just need to be let in and out the door when nature calls!
