We live on a 350 acre ranch surrounded by crown land, lakes, trails and wildlife in the Cariboo, BC. The nearest town , 100 Mile House, is approx. 20min drive on a good dirt road.
We require a person /couple to live full time, in a separate ,recently built carriage house, approx. 1,000 sq ft with living room, bedroom, bathroom and full kitchen. Wood heat, with back up electricity overlooking a private lake and natural pastures. There is a canoe and mountain bikes for your use, a large wooden deck to sit out overlooking the lake which is full of Brook Trout if you like to fish.
* You should be organized, willing to work a minimum of 15hrs a week per person. Non smoker
* Have some experience with a garden, home repairs, painting, and cutting wood with a chain saw ( we can teach you this). Grass cutting and weed eating when needed.
*Experienced at house/ pet sitting and have a passion for dogs
* Comfortable around a kennel of friendly Siberian Huskies ( 10 of them, Yes, ten)who need lots of attention and walks when we are not home.
We would like to come and go , however the sitters will have the use of their own apartment all of the time , even if we are at home. When we are at home, the sitters are free to come and go as they please. However, the sitter must be on the property when we are away.
This would be suitable for a person seeking part time employment.
The main duty is to care for our dogs when we are away: feed, clean the kennels, groom , socialize and walk with them for an hour each each day.
We don't leave very often during the summer, if we do ,then the garden will need to be watered every day in the summer,together with house plants .
This would be an ideal place for anyone who has or wishes to have, horses, chickens, goats or other livestock. We have plenty of pasture land.
Anyone looking for peace and quiet, who loves nature and the great outdoors. Ideal for writers and artists, . Lots trails for horse riding, biking and hiking. Please remember that we live in a very remote area. If you are looking for coffee shops, stores and night life, this is not the place to be !!!!
You need to have own transport. Have a sense of responsibility and a mechanical aptitude in certain situations
Utilities (hydro) are separate , you will need to provide your own internet and phone and there is no salary offered.
If you are qualified, please send a letter of interest. Once this is reviewed we will set up a time to phone and if at all possible follow up by an in person interview.
WE HAVE FOUND A COUPLE TO HOUSE SIT UNTIL MAY 2013 IF YOU ARE INTERESTED TO CARETAKE AFTER THIS DATE PLEASE CONTACT US.
Regards,
Rainer and Jane Snosibe Husky Ranch, BC, Cannada
