Descrição
We are a couple with four small dogs. We live in a village called Revonlahti which is about 60 km from the city of Oulu and 20 km from the town called Raahe. We live in house by the river of Siikajoki. The distance to the nearest bus stop is about 2 km and the connections are quite good both to Oulu and to Raahe. The train station is located in Ruukki about 10 km from our place.

We would like to get some help with the household chores, such as cooking, cleaning etc. There are many things to do in the garden too, especially in the summer time. Taking care of the dogs is one of the main tasks, especially when neither one of us is at home. Two of the dogs have some health issues and therefore, they need some special care every day.

In the summer and in the autumn, we like to pick wild berries and mushrooms and store them for the winter. It would be great, if you could do that with us. Most of the time, wou will be living with us like a family member so you won't be doing many different things than we do ourselves.

We are mostly quite flexible about when exactly you should be working as long as you negotiate with us beforehand when you won't be available. It's quite important you let us know about your timetable and plans, since it's not possible to leave the dogs alone for a very long time.

As a conclusion, we will have you as a part of the family so we wish you'd also contribute to the common wellbeing and homey atmosphere. The important thing for us is that you also feel like home and you can have an enjoyable stay. If you feel you might like to stay with us for a while, please send us a message.
