    Description

    I am 63. I run my own English language School. I live in a wooden cabin in the countryside near Tarifa. I have 3 very well behaved, sociable dogs and 1 cat
    I am 10 mins away from Algeciras, 15 mins from Tarifa, 30 mins from Gibraltar.
    The job is to look after my 3 dogs and a cat and also some help with gardening.
    You would stay in the adjoining apartment which is independent with its own key and door. It has a large bedroom, bathroom and living room / kitchen.
    I will be away travelling for 10 days from the 8th to the 17th March.
    You would need to come a couple of days before to meet and learn a bit about the dogs and place.
    If you drive it would be better as we are a bit of a walk from the nearest bus stop (15 min walk uphill).

    The job is to look after my dogs while I'm away for a few days.
    You don't have to take them out for walks as they have plenty of space to run around on the land.
    Feed them once a day. You can give them some snacks in the morning and for good behaviour but never when you are eating.
    Lilly is the princess and needs her space.
    Harry can be a bit nervous but extra friendly and licky.
    They basically entertain themselves so you just need to feed them.
