Grand jardin | 4 Chats | 6 Animaux de la ferme

CATS: We have 4 cats (Pip, Luke, Pippi and Ollie), 5 chickens and a rooster.
They are low maintenance but off need some love and attention.
The cats need to be fed dayly meaning in the morning the get kibbles and in the evening wet food (note: just prepacked food).
They are inside the house during the night and during the day they can room inside and outside.

CHICKEN
The chicken are also low maintenance, they have a night shelter with a automatic closing door, an enclosed chicken run and can enjoy the rest of the garden.
The automatic door closes at a pre-set time just before sunset and the chicken go inside themselfs on time. However every evening we check and close the door of the chicken run.
In the morning we decide, based on our planning, to open the run or keep it closed if we are off. In the chicken run there is a bucket with water and with chicken feed that they can use next to that we spread around some chickenfeed inside or outside.

Note: Our house is adjacent to the wood so foxes are never far away during the early morning and sunset

GARDEN
It would be nice if you could mow the grass ones a week, we have a motorised lawnmower.
We also have a vegetable garden which is watered (for the biggest part automatically) you can harvests for own use. There are also many fruit trees (plum, cherry, apple, pear) and shrubs (raspberry, blackberry, strawberry, gooseberry, currants) from which you can harvest as well. Not necessary, but a nice extra.

Précisions sur les dates

Dates are fixed but we'd like house sitters to arrive at least one day before we leave so we can go through instructions, get to know the pets get to know each other a bit.

Tourisme et loisirs

Facilities:
On Fridays till Sunday a small bakery "de Tureluur" is open also a lunch facility 'Boerderij Uniek Leven' both at walking distance of 1.2 kilometer. Both really nice to visit.
The organic-supermarket is located around 2 kilometers from our house, regular stores (supermarket, drugstore, action, liquor store and florist) are about 3 kilometers away. Almere city with all facilities (cinema, restaurants, shopping center, musea) is 20 minutes by car.

Nature:
Behind the house are woods with the green Cathedral, de groene kathedraal, nice for walks.
Almere is located at the IJsselmeer, so you can find small beaches in Almere and Zeewolde to enjoy a swim.
Oostervaarders plassen is a nature reserve, where you can walk and spot many birds, wild horses, deer and cattle.

Cities:
Almere is centrally located within the Netherlands so a perfect place to explore the country.
Amsterdam, Utrecht and Amersfoort all within 30 minutes drive so all the history and culture around the corner.

Rennes, France - Août 2026

La garde s'est bien passée. Au démarrage, nous avons reçu des consignes claires et avons toujours pu joindre les propriétaires, qui sont restés joignables tout au long du séjour malgré le décalage horaire. La maison est lumineuse et agréable. Le jardin produit de nombreux fruits dont nous avons bien profité. Les 4 chats ont tous chacun leur caractère et habitudes, mais ils sont vraiment sympas et nous avons adoré prendre soin d'eux.
