Description
We are looking for an active, friendly workaway or a couple to assist our family - look after the cat, dog and the chalet when we are not there. Lots of opportunity to walk in the mountains, to chill or to do your own freelance work whilst helping us out. The role is mainly DIY and gardening. We do not rent out the chalet anymore so no help with customers is required.

Help around the house

House sitting
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Lovely typical French village. Learn English and French and enjoy stunning views of Mont Blanc and Italy! In addition to this, all the workawayers we have had live with us have improved their language skills. We have a great relationship with all our past workawyers and three have now stayed and live nearby .
Help
We need an independent person or a couple for cat sitting, DIY and cleaning. This will mean helping outside around the chalet and also feeding a cat and walking our dog when we are not around ! Gardening help and DIY would be amazing for this summer.

What else ...
It is a very calm setting in the mountains with stunning views of Mont Blanc. It is an area that is easy to hitch hike around and perfect for cycling and hiking. The French farming village is lovely. However if you come alone then out of the season, it is very quiet so you need to be a person (if you are not in a couple) who is happy to spend time alone. Ideal for peaceful people who love to hike the mountains.
