Dog sitter wanted in a little farm in middle of the forest

About this assignment

You aren't afraid of the dark, are you? Must be kind and gentle as the dogs are rescue dogs. Must cope with darkness and having no neighbors. If you know how to use fire, it´s a benefit.

What responsibilities are required of the house sitter

We have two small dogs (10 kg and 6 kg). One is elderly and the other is young; both are very sweet-natured. They are rescue dogs, so we want to ensure they are treated with special care—gentleness and affection are a must. You don't necessarily have to take them for walks, as we have a large, fenced yard, but if you wish, one of them would happily show you the surrounding area. Main thing is to care for the dogs but also for chickens, two ducks, and a bunny. They are used to being fed twice a day and having their water changed once a day.

What are the good features of the property and location

If you are looking for peace and quiet, and want to be near nature. Our house is located in the middle of forest. Our house is an old farm with warm and cosy feeling.

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

In November, there are only 5.5 to 8 hours of daylight, and our small farm is located in the middle of the forest—with no streetlights. And no neighbors. The nearest shop is 20 km away, and the nearest city, Mikkeli, is 36 km away. A car of your own is essential; unfortunately, we likely cannot provide one. Does this sound something you could handle...

Can I bring my own pets?

No, sorry.
