Corps de ferme au milieu de la campagne

About this assignment

We're looking for someone who knows how to take care of horses.
We also have cats, goose and chickens, but they're pretty independants and except opening and closing the door morning and night for the chicken, they don't need much taking care of except for food.
We also have a dog, pretty calm, can stay alone for extented period of time buf of course he has to be taken out several times a day. If you plan to stay away the whole day, there's still the possibility of letting him outside in the horse stables, or taking him with you.

What responsibilities are required of the house sitter

You'll have to take the horses into their field in the morning, and back inside for the night.
If the weather is good, two of them can stay out Day and night which makes it way easier to care for them.
If they're inside during the night, you'll have to feed them some hay for the night and clean a bit each Day (takes about 15 minutes a day)
A quick watering of the garden would be appreciated in exchange of enjoying the food it provides (mainly Peas, tomatoes, potatoes, strawberries, raspberries...)

What are the good features of the property and location

We're in the countryside, no neighbours (the nearest ones are over a kilometer away), so calm is the main word.
Just behind the property is the "canal of Saint Quentin", a couple of boats passes by each Day and you can either take a walk or ride bicycles along the banks.
Nearby you'll also find a forest for some walks.
Our house has been fully renovated recently.

What does the house sitter need to consider before applying for this assignment

You'll mainly need to know how to care for horses. If you're not familiar with them, please do not apply.
Please also note that you'll need a car for your all your moves since we're kind of in the middle of nowhere :)

Can I bring my own pets?

No, sorry.
