Pet sitting surrounded by olive and vine fields in Brindisi, Italy

Details

• 

  Description

  My husband and I own a small olive land with a renovated two bedroom house, with our two lovely rescue dogs in Serranova, Puglia, in Italy. My husband works as an English language teacher, and I am a pensioner.
  
  We just love where we live, as it is in a rural area, with plenty of olive and vine fields. Our dogs -one year old brothers- like walking with us around here too. They are very good natured, friendly dogs.
  
  Nearest shops are 15 minutes drive away in surrounding towns. Going to beautiful sea side takes less than ten minutes.

  Help

  We just need someone to accompany our dogs during June 2026, when we travel on and off. The dogs need to be taken for one-and-a half hour walk twice a day, and their food to be prepared two times daily too.

  Accommodation

  This is a two bedroom house. We allocate one of the furnished room for our volunteer, they are welcome to use all the facilities that we use all around the house, including bathroom, kitchen, etc.
  
  We can offer food/ingredients/ 3 meals a day
  As for the food, as it is stated in your site, we think that the food would be volunteer’s responsibility.

• 

  What else ...

  There are plenty of activities around in spare times which we can talk about.
  
  It would be best for the volunteers to have their own transport, but if not, we try to find a solution.
