We are a busy semi retired active couple in our early 70s. We live in a lovely wild spot on the edge of an Essex village, with shops, pubs, restaurants, doctors and a train station (London 50 minutes). We are looking for someone who is experienced with and loves dogs to help us with our elderly spaniel (16 in May, but still very active) and our younger rescued spaniel. Sometimes we need to go out or away and we need someone responsible to leave them with. They are both sweet natured. Some help around the house (light housework) would be appreciated and with whatever is going on - no day will be different! If you are a driver that would be great and, as we are learning Spanish, a Spanish speaker would be wonderful. We had a Spanish boy living with us for a year+ and that was a very happy arrangement. We can offer a nice bedroom and mostly private use of a bathroom (only otherwise used if guests come to stay). We live on a little island overlooking a river so there is always lots of wildlife to see. We can offer you use of a local health club with pool, gym, Padel and tennis, and are happy to help you with your English. About us: we are interested in the arts - film, theatre, dance, good TV, reading, walking, enjoying the countryside as well as great cities, and we enjoy eating well and seeing our friends. We both speak French to a good standard and one of us can converse in Spanish and Turkish.
We are looking for someone who will help with the care of our dogs taking them for walks and helping with their feeding routines etc and being there for them when we are out or away. It would also be great if you can help with other activities such as washing up and hoovering etc but we do have someone who does the ironing and cleaning once a week. We are a completely non smoking house so you would need to be a non smoker. If you are a driver that would be great but it is not essential.
