  Description

  Hello everyone,
  
  My name is Maryam, and I live in beautiful Ensenada,Baja California, Mexico with my husband Felipe and our four adorable dogs. I am Persian, and Felipe is Mexican. Our home is located just 15 minutes from the city center, with convenient access to a supermarket within a 10-minute walk and the main street just 7 minutes away.
  
  Our two-floor home features one bedroom and a spacious yard spanning approximately 300 square meters. We are fortunate to reside in a quiet neighborhood, and the Pacific Ocean is only a 20-minute drive from our doorstep.
  
  As avid travelers, my husband and I often embark on adventures that unfortunately don't accommodate our beloved dogs. This is where we could use your help. We would greatly appreciate assistance with feeding our dogs once a day, ensuring their water buckets are filled, maintaining their living area clean, and watering our plants. Take our dogs for walk/joy once a week is required.
  
  Meals are provided when we are at home, when we are away we can negotiate about the meals.
  
  Ensenada offers a multitude of attractions, such as La Bufadora and Valle de Guadalupe among others, allowing you to explore the city and its surroundings.
  
  We have plans to travel to Canada for a month in either June or July 2024 and would be delighted to host you during our absence. You're welcome to join us one week prior to our departure so we can introduce you to our 3 dogs, acquaint you with the area, and ensure everything is prepared for your stay. During this time, you'll have the option to sleep in our first-floor living room, and once we depart, you can utilize our bedroom. Our home is equipped with fast Wi-Fi, hot water for showers, and all necessary amenities.
  
  This experience should be suitable for people who work remotely, as the activities should take less than 4 hours per day in total (we are not looking for quantity but else the quality)
  
  Just for highlight, love (and inherently hence, patience) for dogs is the most requiring.
  
  If you have a fondness for animals and are interested in experiencing Ensenada, Baja California, please don't hesitate to reach out. We look forward to hearing from you and welcoming you to our home.
  
  Thank you, and we can't wait to meet you!

  Help

  Assistance with feeding our dogs once a day, ensuring their water buckets are filled, maintaining their living area clean, and watering our potted plants are the daily chores.
  
  We also need a hand on arrange our small garden spot (a couple of hours per week) and grass trimming (3 hours per two weeks).
  
  We would like to request a video call every 3 days to see our dogs, as we will miss them :{.
  
  MOST IMPORTANT: Love (and inherently hence, patience) for dogs is the most requiring. So, the skilled activity needed is the ability to take our 3 super energetic dogs out for a walk-joy hike once a week, a minimum of 3 hours of total expenditure. For this activity, drive a car is also required to take all the pack to the place for hiking
