Description
We need a couple to look after our dogs whilst we go to the uk .
we have to be there the 27 dec till the 5 jan
from 27 dec till 6 January-housesitting
The reason we say UK couple is that we need a fully licensed driver (no convictions on license) and we can let you use the car .
The dogs are easy to look after but, do need regular walks and can be noisy in the car when they know where they are going.
Our dogs are cross-breeds. They love meeting new people. Our only stipulation is that they are not let off the lead when walking.
They need to be fed at regular times but that will be explained.
The accommodation is a double bedded room.
As stated transport is required as we are rural and quiet.
That is why transport is required as we are in a Rural Location ...
I am now retired with my husband.
We moved to Co Clare in 2014 and love the area. We are renovating our house at the moment.
We will provide free board and meals I can cater to any diet, and we are vegetarian, but I do provide meat meals.
Drop us a line and tell us how you could help us.
The nearest town is 25 minutes away.
We would also like to show you the area we live in if you would like to join us for a walk or two.
Again Thank You for Reading and hope to talk soon. Any questions please contact us.
Regards
Wendy and Dave

Our garden is huge and we need help getting it right, we are trying but need help now what with health issues and age coming to us all... But we are still not afraid of hard work ourselves.
We need to build a new area for veg.
If anyone has pond knowledge that would be fantastic.
Our pond is full of goldfish but the surrounding area needs more work I cannot kneel very easily now . If some one has knowledge of ponds that would be great.
If you enjoy cooking that is great I love cooking but am willing to learn new dishes from other people.

Was lovely to have him stay with us and help with everything we asked him to do. Adrien was polite and very tidy and got on well with our wacky dogs. It was also a pleasure to introduce him to some of the areas where we live. We recommend Adrien to anyone who is looking for a Workaway.
We would invite him back if he is ever around this way… read more
As for the work, it was not complicated : gardening, weeding, painting, lawn care, … especially since the schedules… read more
