About

Looking for a sitter for our spacious 5 bedroom home in Pakenham, VIC. We are clean, non smoking working professionals with one child traveling overseas.

The house will be stocked with food, drinks and supplies and cleaned before leaving. You would have WiFi, Netflix, and other amenities. We have heating, cooling, a fireplace and a choice of a beautiful claw foot bathtub or double showers. We have an extensive library of books you are also welcome to read. We have a comfortable queen bed with a mattress less than a year old. Our home has a backyard and garden, with a large deck overlooking the hills.

We are situated a 5 minute drive to Pakenham Train Station, Main Street Pakenham and shopping centres such as Woolworths, Coles, Big W, etc. We are a 5 minute walk to the bus stop and a handful of local parks.

Our house was made completely wheelchair accessible by prior owners, so also includes wider door ways, and remote controlled front door, etc.

Pets & farm animals

The sitter would need to feed our two cats and scoop/change their litter. One of our cats requires a small nightly pill which is easy to administer with his food. They are healthy, 3 and 4 years old so are mellow and don’t require any playing, etc. They are extremely affectionate and gentle, so they would love a cuddle from time to time if you are up for it. <br /><br />It would be preferable for the sitter to have access to a vehicle in the extremely unlikely event that they would have to take the cats to the vet if anything were to happen to them.

House Tasks

The requirements of this sitter would be to do basic cleanup after themselves, dishes, take out rubbish, and collect the mail. <br /><br />No garden maintenance or additional maintenance.
