Description
=====================
The next availability will be in October. We are looking for an animal and Country lover to help take care of 3 horses 4 dogs 4 goats and 7 hens we will also need help in the garden. It's not necessary to be a rider but if you would like to ride you are more than welcome. We will be travelling from time to time so it's very important that you would feel capable and confident to stay alone on our property. This opportunity might suit someone who can work remotely as you will have a lot of spare time. We live right in the middle of Ireland so it makes travelling easy however if you had your own car it would be even more ideal. You will have sole use of our guest cottage which is very comfortable and has everything you need for daily living. The animals welfare is the most important to us so please only apply if you are a genuine dog /horse lover you don't need to be a rider but it is important that you are comfortable around horses and can handle them confidently. Because it takes time to get to know the routine with the dogs and horse we can only accept people that can stay at least 3 months. We would also be open to a more long term arrangement for the right person.Please don't hesitate to write me if you have more questions I'm happy to answer.
Warm regards
Claire
