Description
I am looking for someone who wants to take care of our two bedroom cottage while we are away this summer
We have a small fruit forest, 3 adult chickens and two babies, and a fat loving low key cat.
Our house is a two bedroom cottage with well, eco filtro and free eggs/fruit. It's perfect for a couple or small family of 2-4.
My daughter is 7.5 so there's lots of toys and a bike for a kid that age and tons of kids in the neighborhood.
We are located in Bajos de Chila, just a ten minute drive from Puerto Escondido on the ocean side of town so it's a 20 minute walk to a virgin beach.
The house is in front of a store, taco stand and moto taxi stand. We have internet.
The ideal person is someone who likes the country and slow living. Is not bothered by noises of a community (fiestas that go all night on weekends, roosters early in the morning, kids and dogs and people), and who speaks Spanish.
It's as safe as the 80s, and my neighbors are really incredible people.

Gypsy Rose
Gypsy was adopted off the street at 8nminths ago. She is a rottweiler mix and ia still learning her manners. She is a sweet dog but has some bad habit like jumping and chewing and occasionally killing chickens. She thinks she is a chihuahua and loves to run in the river, fight street dogs and play with manchas.
Richard / Dick or Manchas
We found him as a tiny kitten thrown away like trash on the side of the road. He has been raised by dogs and acts like one. He is only 5 months and by far the sweetest little Prince we ever met. He is white with black splotches and the one on his nose looks like a dick which is how he got his name. He is Gypsy's absolute best friend.
