This
could be your chance to help us with our animals, as we invite one
or two young people to live with us as au pairs and dog/donkey/poultry
carers throughout the year. This is a domestic situation
caring for our home and pets, it is not a commercial position and
our au pairs live very much as part of the family. For our au pair
dog carers all living costs are met and in addition each receives
weekly pocket money. We also run a guest house, where people from
all over the world stay, our Au Pairs would also be involved in
the running of this.Life here is all about caring for the animals,
which include dogs, chickens, Donkeys, which involves helping with
feeding, bathing, grooming, lots of exercising, and assisting with
general care. All our dogs are friendly and well mannered. In addition
our au pairs help us to maintain a high standard of cleanliness
and hygiene both inside and outside.
Most of the real work happens in the morning.
Going out with the dogs first thing and clearing up, making sure
everything is clean outside, helping with feeding and settling the
dogs. After breakfast, some general cleaning, and housekeeping inside
to be done - before lunch.
Although there is plenty of free time and days off, because this
is a family home no one is really ever off duty, there is always
a water bowl to be filled up, a dog wanting a cuddle, someone on
the wrong side of a door and so on. If you like to separate work
and leisure life here is not for you.
In
addition to the daily routine of work that keeps Bramblecroft afloat
there are lots of other less routine activities that take place
on a regular weekly or occasional basis. These include assisting
in dog training classes, and One to One animal training with very
few exceptions all evenings are free for our au pair dog carers
to do what they wish either at home or out and about.

Kennel
Person required to live in at new Boarding Kennels

so you will need transport as there are no buses here.
Experience is essential and 2 references must be provided prior
to an interview. You will ideally have worked in at least 2 other
boarding kennels and you will be self motivated, friendly and possess
the ability to give exceptional customer care at all times. The
accomodation is a bed sit (room) with shared toilet and bathroom
with the owner.
The suitable candidate will benefit from learning about dog training
in both the class and residential environment gaining valuable experience
with dogs. Also you will learn about working with rescue dogs mainly
English Springer Spaniels. Start date August 1st 2008. Closing date
June 14th 2008.

Dog
Carers Wanted
Wagging Tails Home Dog Boarding is looking for carers to look after
our owners dogs (in your own home) whilst the owners are away. We
need individuals / families who have experience of looking after
dogs but do not have any dogs of their own. Perhaps you feel a dog
all year round would be too expensive or time consuming, or your
dog may have sadly passed away and you are not wanting a permanent
dog yet. This is primarily seasonal work, however you are free to
accept or decline any bookings offered to you.
We need you to have your own secure garden and somewhere in your
home for dogs to relax, play and sleep. Our owners supply food,
treats and bedding for the duration of the stay, leaving you to
enjoy the time you have with your four-legged guest & get paid
for the priviledge! So if you love dogs & either work from home
or don't work then we would love to hear from you.
