Responsible person or couple needed to care for 3 dogs, 2 cats and our house from August 2nd to August 19th 2012: must be prepared to live in every night we are away. Experience in handling dogs is essential, as are referees to vouch for your honesty and reliability.
Duties: walk dogs approx 35 mins per day, feed dogs and cats and tank of tropical fish, clear the mail and put out the rubbish – that’s it. We can provide you with use of a car to get to the train station and to transport the dogs (provided you have a driver’s license).
Location: Whitby. It takes about 25 minutes to drive into the city (offpeak) and about 45 minutes peak time, or 5 minutes drive to the train, then minute train ride.
Other benefits: we have a large modern house with great views over Pauatahanui Inlet, Sky TV and internet, heaps of DVD’s and a large deck. If you can’t afford to go away on holiday then this is a good substitute if you want a really nice place to chill out. Also if you love animals then our cats and dogs are great company.
