A big favour to ask of the ECAM Community!



I know this is probably a long shot but we're rather desperate and in need of any assistance the ECAM community can provide.

We have leave scheduled for 03-24 August 2012 (with another 3-4 days off on either side; perhaps wishful thinking) and will be out of country. Our lovely boy Jake will unfortunately have to stay behind but the dog sitter we normally have used the past few years is unavailable this year (she will be out of country). We hate to put him into a kennel as he is always most happy in a home environment.

Jake is a 4 year old pure bred Chihuahua. He is very calm and quiet and literally NEVER barks except when the door bell is rung. He is excellent with young children (under supervision as he is quite small and could be easily hurt by an unsupervised child) and good with all other cats and dogs (except for some reason he does not like small male dogs much). He is very "low maintenance" and only requires going out twice/day to go to the bathroom and fed once per day.




We are looking for anyone who might be interested in looking after him in our absence for the first 3 weeks in August. Ideally we are looking for the following situations:


1) You have been unable to get summer leave or are back from leave by the end of July. Your family will be out of town for summer vacation until school begins and you have been left behind to work. Your maid continues to work for you but doesn't mind taking care of a dog in your villa along with her other daily tasks.

2) You have been unable to get summer leave or are back from leave by the end of July and your family will be in Dubai. Your teenage daughter/son is looking for a summer job and you feel it would be good experience having them take care of our dog in your villa.

3) You have been unable to get summer leave and your family is still in Dubai. You have been interested in getting a dog for the family in the fall and would like to "test drive" one to see if the addition would fit well with your family.

4) You have been unable to get summer leave. Your family will be out of town for summer vacation and you have been left behind to work. You have no need for a full time maid while your family is absent and would like someone else to pay her wages for the month of August until your family returns. She would move into our villa and take care of the dog/housesit with us paying her wages for the month of August.


If you can help out (or if you know of someone who would be able to help out and is excellent with small dogs) please give us a call or email and we can follow up.

Thanks to all!
