    Hello, we are planning a three-month trip in 2027 and are looking for someone to look after our dog Garvyn (an 11-year-old Golden Retriever) and our house. We live in Schongau, Upper Bavaria, near mountains and lakes, and about an hour from Munich. Good Wi-Fi is available, so working from home is possible.
