  Descripción

  Stay in a quiet neighbourhood of Victoria with our dog Oby, our bunnies, plants and fish tanks.
  10 years ago, I was a workaway myself, and now we are looking for someone to watch our home while we are away for the holidays! We'd love to find someone interested in our lifestyle (quiet city living and food growing), animals and the outdoors

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  Our home used to be the pool house on the property, an old heritage home (that our landlords occupy. It is fully separate, in a quiet cul-de-sac with all the amenities one might require. My boyfriend and I moved there in February and have been making it a home; we both love nature and simple living and have been making the most of our small space.
  
  Located just a 20min bus or car ride away from the city center of Victoria, we enjoy all the amenities of the city while being close to nature and the rest of Vancouver Island!
  
  The place itself is a 1-bedroom with a full bathroom (with a bathtub) and a kitchen (with a dishwasher). We have a king bed for you and Oby to share (he likes to be in bed sometimes but will also go on the couch or his bed if you do not wish to sleep with him).
  
  Our home is not suited for parties but is a welcoming place to host dinner parties and garden hangouts (our garden is fully separate from the main house). Our contract does not allow smoking on the premises.

  Our home is a little 800 sq ft fully contained separate garden suite that we rent and have poured a lot of love into. We have an expansive garden, a dog, 2 rabbits and 3 stable fish tanks.
  
  -Oby is a very sweet 70 lb Border Collie mix that loves to cuddle and go on walks. He's also used to camping, hiking, biking and all sorts of outdoor adventures. He needs someone to keep him company over the Christmas break while we visit family away. Oby eats twice a day and is used to staying home while we go to work; he's used to going for a daily walk (20+ min) and a couple of shorter poop outings (he does not like to poop in the garden).
  -Bugz and Kiwi are our pair of meat rabbits; we strongly value their well-being, but they are livestock and not pets. The two rabbits live in an outdoor hutch and get fed daily with hay, pellets and fresh veggies. Their care requires keeping on top of the litter boxes daily and emptying them every few days.
  -The fish tanks are heavily planted and mostly self-sustaining and only require a pinch of food daily and a water top-up every week or so.
  
  We would love to find someone who has an interest in being close to the city (we are about 20min away by bus or car) while being in a quiet and safe home.

  Well-behaved dogs would be welcome. Oby is quite a friendly guy, but we require your dog to be fixed, vaccinated and potty trained.
