Description
We are a German family, living in NZ since 18 years, with 3 children, who have left home and are at university or working. We have a nice and warm house in Lower Hutt, and are looking for an experienced dog sitter while we are in Europe from early July until August 18th. We have 2 dogs, one 11 year old border collie cross, and a 4 year old German shepherd husky. Both dogs are very nice, well trained, but need a knowledgeable hand to take them on daily walks. We ideally are looking for 2 people travelling together. Dog experience is a must:) We have had many work awayers over the last 2 years, helping us with building, renovating and dog sitting.
