    Description

    We are no longer needing any assistance for November the place has been filled thank you

    Walk to iconic Ponsonby Road for great food and entertainment and use our home as a base to explore the best of what Auckland has to offer. This Workaway is best suited to someone who has experience with high energy dogs and loves them (you will be loved right back!)

    There is parking available for a van or a car. The house is on the smaller side. Spread over three levels, it's light and bright and airy. There's good internet and a big sunny deck.
