    --- Help required for summertime ---

    Hello, my name is Caroline. I am looking for 1 or 2 volunteers to take care of my 5 lovely Dominican dogs, and to live on my property in AUGUST. I can welcome various volunteers it can be less. I have several bungalows to receive volunteers.
    -I am looking for autonomous people who know how to behave with a group of dogs, bring them to the beach to walk and swim, to feed them twice a day, to pick up pup, to give bath when necessary, to give médecine if needed, to clean their space and cuddle., and once a week to go to buy their food and cook chicken rice for them.
    -YOU HAVE TO BE OK WITH LIVING INTO THE NATURE AND ALL FORMS OF LIVING BEINGS.
    -I am also welcoming digital workers who need to stop for a while their travel and to discover the low rythm of living in a flamboyant natural place.
    Until now, the volunteers who come to enjoy the place stay from 2 months to 6 months. They adore the experience and wish to come back soon, and to be honest they cry when they leave.... 😉
    Near a paradisiac beach , 2 km from Las Galeras ( walking by the beach), 4 km by car, authentic Dominican village with a special attentive energy. Very quiet place into the nature.

    I live into this place since 14 years and developed cultural and ecological projects with a wonderful group of ecological people. I rescued dogs of the street and made them adopt in foreign countries. Since then, I spend more time in my country in France and look for lovely people to stay into my place. There are my 5 adorable DOGS . Mani Jack Jules, Ámbar and Luz .
    My property is made of the main house that I rent, and 3 autonomous bungalows for 2 persons each one, that I rent or where the volunteers live . The garden has a lot of fruits trees birds and is 7 min walking from a paradisiacal beach.
