Description

We are searching for a single person or couple interested in caring for our lifestyle block while we are overseas for a month May-June.

We are located 20mins south of Timaru on a quiet rural property.

The house is lovely and warm with a wood burner for use to keep warm over the autumn/wintertime.

You would be responsible for the care of our 3 medium sized dogs and a cat, as well as a few ducks, chickens, horses, sheep and calves on our 10-acre property. There are also a few indoor and outdoor plants that would also require some attention. Ideally someone confident in handling horses or large animals if any issues were to arise.
