Description
I am 65. I run my own English language School. I live in a wooden cabin in the countryside near Tarifa. I have 4 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 4 dogs and a cat and also feeding my chickens.
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 8 days from the 13 October to 21 October .
You would need to come a couple of days before to meet and learn a bit about the animals 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). -

Help
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.
Kai is a .6 month old German Shepherd and a darling. -
