Description
Come and stay with me for a few weeks in warm-hearted Winnipeg! See the sights in the area, while giving me a hand around the house for about four hours a day.
My children have grown up and moved on, so I'd appreciate a hand with a few day-to-day things (keeping the house clean, making simple noon-hour meals eg. pasta) and shoveling snow if it snows.Types of help and learning opportunities

You will have all your remaining free time to roam Winnipeg checking out its museums, cultural events, and so on.
Help
I've hurt my shoulder and will be needing help for a while. Are you the person to help? Give me a hand with some housework and dog walking for four hours a day, and the rest of the day is yours. It would be great if you could make the breakfast porridge and a simple noon meal, take the small dogs out for a walk, and help with the dishes and floor sweeping.

What else ...
The house is just a minute's walk to busy Main Street, with many buses going to various areas of the city. I'm only a few minutes' walk to a dollar store, small grocery stores, and fast-food restaurants (KFC, Taco Bell, McDonalds) in no particular order: My home is a non-smoking home. I have 2 small pomeranians and a cat, all of whom would appreciate some ball-tossing and ear-scratching. I'm not keen on late-night noise. The house is very secure -- you would feel safe as I have camera security at the entrances. If you know how to make once in a while a mean vegetable lasagna, or an omelette, you'd rock! :-)
