    Hello! My name is Shivaani, and I'm offering a unique opportunity for someone who loves dogs and appreciates a tranquil lifestyle. I recently moved close to Auroville, India, celebrated for its spiritual vibes and verdant surroundings.

    My home is nestled in the Sri Meerambigai Garden neighborhood, just about 13 minutes away from Auroville.

    What I Offer:

    -Enjoy a cozy stay at my home, located in the friendly neighborhood of Sri Meerambigai Garden, Diwan Kandappa Naga, Tamil Nadu.. It's approximately 13 minutes from Auroville
    -You will have your own room and toilet, along with access to a beautiful shared space.
    -My two adorable dogs, Betsey and Abby, will be your companions.
    -A fully equipped kitchen.

    This Opportunity Is Ideal For You If:

    1.Local Experience: You enjoy living in a quiet neighborhood with access to local restaurants, markets, and shops.
    2.Convenient Access: The city center is easily reachable, offering a blend of urban and natural experiences.
    3.Yoga and Spirituality: You practice yoga, follow a vegan/vegetarian lifestyle, and seek spiritual growth. Our house has ample space for yoga practice, and there are many Yoga Centers
    4.Bicycling: A bicycle is available for you to explore the picturesque surroundings of Auroville.
    5.Dog Experience: You have prior experience caring for dogs.
    6.Solitude: You appreciate solitude and independence.

    I'm also looking for someone with knowledge or interest in permaculture to help develop and maintain my land. This is a great chance for anyone passionate about sustainable living and gardening.

    Artistic Contribution - if you have a flair for art, I'd love for you to bring some creative energy to the property by painting outdoor art. It's a wonderful opportunity to leave a personal touch in a natural setting.

    If you're interested in this unique experience and can commit to 4 weeks of caring for my dogs while I'm away, please reach out to me.

    This is a perfect chance to immerse yourself in the Auroville community, connect with nature, and enjoy peaceful living.
