We need 1 volunteer
We own a small farm in the rural area of Gisborne. It is surrounded by 100 acres of pasture and a very quiet place. We are situated in the North Island - Eastland region.
In the winter months of June, July and August 2019 we need help to keep the house and garden clean and animals (dogs and cats) to be cared for with a lot of love.
Your work in the house will consist of: cleaning windows, mopping floors, vacuuming, cooking, cleaning the bathroom, tidying the shed, removing spider cob webs,...
Your animal care will be feeding cats and dogs, taking dogs for a long walk on the farm, keeping the dog area clean, grooming dogs.

Any artistic skills and excellent computer skills or IT specialist most welcome.
