About

Hi, we’re looking for a house and pet sitter (or sitters) from 23 August 2024 until 24 September 2024 to look after three of our cats in our house in Meredith VIC while we are on holiday. The fur babies you’ll be watching are Miao Miao (17 y/o B&W female domestic short hair), Eric (7 y/o male ginger tabby), and MacGyver (4 y/o black male “kitten”). All cats are spayed and microchipped and are indoor/outdoor pets. They can all be a little shy at first, but will be friendly and affectionate once they are used to you. The cats get fed twice a day.

We can be flexible with dates if you’d like to arrive earlier or stay on for a couple of extra days, and we would also be keen to meet you before your stay. The house is on a large suburban block (approx. one acre), but our neighbour’s horses graze in the yard which keeps the grass down, so no yard maintenance or gardening is required. The neighbour feeds the horses so you won’t have to, but you’re welcome to make friends with them if you’d like – they love carrots and
apples! We also have a cleaner in once a fortnight so no heavy cleaning or housework would be required – just basic tidying up after yourself, doing dishes etc.

The house is located within the township of Meredith and is walking distance to both pubs and the corner store, however it is a very small town with no supermarket or medical centre and inadequate public transport so would only suit if you have a vehicle.

We can provide external power if you are wanting to park an RV or camper van in the drive, but we do have two guest bedrooms so you would also be welcome to stay in the house – the choice is yours. You’ll also have full access to the bathroom, laundry, and kitchen as well as Wi-Fi and streaming services (Netflix, Stan, Disney+, and Amazon Prime).

We are a non-smoking household, so preferably a non-smoking sitter.
