  Description

  Due to current COVID restrictions in our area we are only considering individuals already in Canada.
  
  We are a self employed couple, living in the Fraser Valley of British Columbia, Canada. We’ve been married for 27 years and don’t have any children. Our home is located on an acre of land in a neighbourhood of about 230 homes. Our nearest bus stop is about a 20 minute walk away. Within a 7 minute drive by car you can get to coffee shops, restaurants, movie theatre, and lots of shopping.
  
  The Fraser Valley is a beautiful area to visit. Stunning views of local mountains, scenic parks and trails, horseback riding, and local lakes to explore. The Fraser Valley is home to many of British Columbia’s tourism destinations.
  
  For the past few years we have been building our dream home. We are looking for a female guest who enjoys working outdoors to help out with yard work, mowing lawns, and basic gardening tasks. We are High Performance Home builders and don’t always have enough time to work on our yard. While we do enjoy working outdoors, we are hoping to get some help with keeping our property weed free. We have lots of gardening tools and supplies.
  
  Our life can be fairly busy during the day and sometimes in the evening too. Since we are self employed and our office is in our home, we have employees, customers, and visitors at our home throughout the week. In the evening we usually eat supper together, then take some time to relax as we get ready for the next day.
  
  The area in which we live is In the city of Abbotsford. It’s a large, rural city about a 40 minute drive east of Vancouver. We are located about 10 minutes from the US border. Uber and Lyft are currently not available in our community, however, there are bus routes.
  
  Thank you for viewing our profile! We hope you will consider visiting the Fraser Valley!
