We are looking for a homesitting couple who would take care of our house, garden and pets.
We have 2 great Danes, 2 cats and several Aquariums.
Experience with big dogs is required as our Ladies are sometimes difficult when it comes to encounters with other dogs. You need to be in good physical condition as well as have some strenght and experience/authority in order to handle these (rare) ocassions. Most of the time though you wont encounter anyone and the rest of the time our doggies are calm and relaxed inside the house.
We also have 2 very friendly and uncomplicated cats that are living in their own room downstairs and spend a lot of time outside in the nature.
Experience in the care for aquariums would also be beneficial, as we have several small and bigger aquariums. There is the need for occasional water changes or cleaning of the filters besides feeding the fish. But after a short introduction it isn't a big deal.
We offer free use of our indoor heated pool as well as whirlpool and sauna.
There isn't much garden work in the winter time and we have a gardener that comes in once a week if needed.
Our house is situated in a quiet environment adjacent to forests (the road ends and the forest with multiple walking paths starts right behind our house). However there are numerous shopping and dining options close by as. The city of Zurich is within 20 min. by car and the international airport is some 10 min. away.
