  Description

  My name is Gabriele, i have lived in Jamaica for the past 30 years.
  
  I live in the Bluntas District in Treasure Beach on the south coast of Jamaica. I have 2 dogs and a big garden.
  
  I am searching for a responsible, mature person to take care of my dogs and possibly the garden during July and August, possibly a few days into September.
  
  
  One of my dogs is my pet and lives with me inside the house, while the other one is outside only.
  I need a person who sincerely can follow the instructions I give to care for the dogs. My “house dog” needs to be walked DAILY early in the morning before it gets too hot, like 6-6:30 am and no later.
  If this is not your thing please do not respond to this post.
  If you are interested despite the responsibility and are 100% sincere about it please write back to me so we can discuss details.
  I look forward to hearing from you.
  Thank you.

  Help

  We have irrigation water that comes every second day for several hours. During those hours the garden needs to be watered with a hose and the tanks need to be topped up for us to use.
  Also I have two dogs who need to be fed and taken care of.

  What else ...

  The beach is about 1/2 hour walk away. There is also public transport passing by the house in direction beach and back. Treasure Beach is the home of community tourism, very laid back where also lots of foreigners live.
  Montego Bay airport is roughly 3 hours drive away due to damages to the road during the hurricane Melissa. Normal driving time was 2 hours.
  Kingston airport is 2 1/2 - 3 hours drive away from treasure beach. There was no road damage.
