About
We are seeking a house sitter to look after our family home whilst we are on a 5 week family holiday.
Our house is a lovely 3 bedroom heritage cottage, newly renovated and located on 100 acres close to Gungahlin in the ACT.
Woolworths, Coles, Aldi and two local shopping centres with cafes, bakeries, coffee shops and restaurants are within a 2 minute drive or 15 minute walk along paved footpaths and cycling pathways.
The house has ducted heating and cooling, one bathroom, 3 bedrooms, new kitchen, two living areas.
We are hoping you may be able to assist in caring for our 5 working kelpies all of who have a large, safe and secure dog run to live in, easy to manage self filling food bowls and water. The dogs love new company are very friendly and are very easy to walk and exercise.
In addition to the dogs we have 7 chooks. All very productive happily living in a chook caravan, protected with an electric fence.
Check their water and auto feed daily and try and keep up with the daily eggs!
Assistance and support is available in caring for the animals if and as necessary or if you wish to leave the property for a short period during your stay.
