Program Details

Our shifts depend on the day. Sometimes we need help in the morning and the rest of the day is free. Sometimes we need help in the afternoon. We would like to ask you to help us 4 hours a day. We have a cat in a house. So maybe it's not a good idea for someone who is allergic to cats to come into our house.
