Our home is just outside of Courtenay,Vancouver Island,British Columbia and sits on a small acreage. We would need a live in house and pet sitter for a period of about 10 to 14 days starting after November 21st 2021. The pets are a 75 lb, 9 year old, German Shepard (this dogs loves everybody) and a small elderly cat. There would also be a bit of plant watering.
The house sitter should be comfortable with using a wood stove to heat the house and should probably have a vehicle as we are a bit out of town. The village of Cumberland is about 2.5 km away and public transit comes to a stop about 1km from the house. The sitter needs to be Covid vaccinated.
The dog needs to be fed and loved as well as walked at least once per day for 45 minutes . The cats needs to be fed and loved.
The house is modern and bright and comes with all amenities. This is a non-smoking home. My wife and I are both vegetarian and would prefer a vegetarian sitter unless you are preparred to refrain from cooking meat while staying here. Sitter would have their own room (our guess room) upstairs. House has WiFi but no television or cable. Please note there is a tenant living in an attached suite on the house which the sitter needs to share the laundry room with. We are 3 minutes to the ocean, 30 minutes to the ski hill, 10 minutes to Courtenay and are adjacent to forestry land so ample walking trails right off the property.At this time our dates are not fixed but no earlier than 21st and no later than 28th. Looking forward to hear from you.
