House / Pet Sitting May to September

I need a family or couple or single person to come and LIVE IN MY HOUSE AND HELP WITH PET/HOUSE SITTING FROM end of May for at least 1or two months at a time ( 3 months can also work). So either June, July or Augusts for one month at a time or for part of or all those months.

I will not be here during that time as I am going to my home country to visit family that I have not seen for 4 years. So the Workawayer will be on their own. My house is in a peaceful village in Bulgaria with very good and fast internet, very good option for digital Nomads! I have dogs and a bunny that needs pet-sitting during those months.

They are easy and it involves feeding them, playing with them, The garden will need lawn mowing once a month at least and I do have a small vegetable garden and fruit trees and the produce can be used by the Workawayers.

I need responsible people who will take good care of my animals and will have the freedom of living in my house in a very beautiful and peaceful village, with internet and electricity included, no meals as the work is a maximum of 2 hours a day.

Light renovation projects are available, but not compulsory. Pet sitting is the most important part.

The house is not luxurious as it is a country house but livable and you get your private bedroom.

The kitchen is well-equipped. There is lots of space where a volunteer can sit and work, study, or just chill. The house has space for up to 3 volunteers at a time.

Groceries and fresh products like milk, bread, cheese, and veggies are all available in the village at the local grocery stores. There is a gas (propane) stove in the kitchen and you can bake bread or make homemade pizza if you want to.

There is a coffee shop and a restaurant that serves local food about 1km from the house.

There is a park very close to our house where there is an outdoor gymnasium! A river is also not far from our house where locals fish or go for picnics.

Public transport is available daily to and from Sofia and the city of Vratsa from the village.

As we are still renovating, we must note that the house is not luxurious at all but a country house in a village It does have a toilet and warm water shower that is a camping shower, there is a cold water shower as well for hot summer days. The balcony upstairs is comfy; where you can drink coffee and listen to the birds singing or just sit and chill.
