Descripción
Looking for a mature couple or two friends to come and look after our house and pets while we are travelling.
We do not have any plans to travel until September or October this year, when we will need a couple to look after our pets for around 3 weeks. No fixed dates yet.
---
We are a South African couple who live in a small coastal village called Aguas Dulces in the Rocha department of Uruguay.
Aguas Dulces has miles of beautiful beaches and is surrounded by forests and lagunas. It is the perfect spot for nature lovers and very quiet with no night life out of season.
We have 5 dogs and 2 cats who are important members of the family and live indoors so this position is only for animal lovers who don't mind sharing the couch with dogs and cats.

Ayuda
We are looking for people to keep our pets company while we are away. As we have a small garden the 4 younger dogs need frequent walks. You can choose to walk on the beach or through the forest.
If you enjoy gardening you can also spend some time in our small garden where we grow edible herbs, fruits and vegetables.

Alojamiento
Workawayers will have their own private room, bathroom and kitchen. There is no TV but there is good cellphone reception and the internet signal is reliable enough to live stream movies.
During the first week of your stay we will be here to introduce you to the pets and show you around the area, during this time you can join us for meals.
While we are away you will need to cook for yourselves as there are no fast food outlets in Aguas Dulces. We will leave basic provisions and there is a weekly market where you can buy fresh fruit and vegetables. There are also several small store that stock everything you need all within walking distance (around 600m) of the house

As this is a pet sitting opportunity you will need to be around to walk the dogs and to feed them every day and it would be nice if you could spend some time at the house as our pets like company.
