We'll need you to take care of our multiple pets. You must be familiar with horses as one of them will need to be taken in and out of the barn every morning and evening.
Our dog needs to be given médication 3 times a day.
The vegetable garden will need to be watered a couple of times a week depending on the weather.
Our fully renovated house is in the middle of the country side with absolutely no neighbours at all except for the wild animals you might encounter on your walks (hawks, deers, herons, swans...)
Just behind the house you'll enjoy the canal of Saint Quentin. You also have some Woods 2km away.
Absolutely no one will bother you !
You need to be familiar with horses.
Taking care of the animals takes approximatively 30 minutes in the morning and 15 minutes in the evening.
You need to be okay with the fact that our dog needs you around at least 3 times a day.
No, sorry.

Incredible Host & Amazing Experience
We had a truly wonderful week housesitting on Odile’s beautiful farm in the Hauts-de-France region. Her charming, renovated farmhouse is just 1.5 hours from Paris, making it the perfect blend of countryside tranquility and city accessibility. We spent a few nights in Paris before renting a car and enjoying our week surrounded by little villages, fields, and fresh country air. Odile was incredibly organized and thoughtful, providing clear written instructions for caring for her home and animals. We especially enjoyed feeding apples to the three friendly horses, collecting fresh eggs from the chicken coop, harvesting vegetables from the garden, and picking apples and plums straight from the trees. Our two boys were warmly welcomed—Odile even baked them a delicious homemade apple pie! She also left us a list of wonderful local recommendations, including the medieval town of Laon, a nearby lake, and exotic animal farms. Ralph, her gentle German Shepherd, quickly became a beloved companion, especially on our daily walks. Odile’s excellent communication, warm hospitality, and the peaceful beauty of her farm made this an unforgettable stay. We wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone looking to enjoy the charm of the French countryside.
