Commencing soon

We have two large dogs that need looking after whilst we are away. We have a dog walker on Mondays and Fridays so its not imperative that you walk them. Our white dog is a runner so you cannot take him off leash unless the area is enclosed. We have had numerous complaints from council(neighbour) over the dogs barking. We use bark collars and training collars. We havent had to use them in months.
Sometimes we just show it to the dogs and tell them off and that is enough to stop the barking. The dogs are not indoor dogs and are not to be let into the house. Feeding the dogs entails cooking up rice and veg to give them plus dry food. We have a very large two story house. We have 2 spare rooms with queen bwds so welcome our sitters to come and stay a day before the sit and after. We usually have dinner with our aitters before we go and we fly in at midnight on 6 jan. The pool is self sufficient and we really don't want you doing anything to it other than skim leaves if required and dump water if it rains too much. Just enjoy it. We have a gardener to mow the lawns. We are in a cul de sac so parking is at a premium. The garage will be full this trip. Bin days are Wednesday night for Thursday collection. We would like someone who will open the house up to air it out as the humidity makes things mouldy/ stagnant. We have air con but we rarely use it. We usually let the breeze cool the house or use tge aircon for 1-2hrs during the day to cool it, using the solar. All bedrooms have ceiling fans.
