About
We are looking for a sitter or family of sitters to look after our house and our little black and white cat, our two guinea pigs and our hermit crabs over the Christmas/New Year break, keep an eye on the veggie garden, put the bins in and out and check the mail. Looking to return home on the 10th but can be flexible.
Our feline friend is four years old, she likes the occasional play but mostly just likes to know there are some humans around while she sleeps in the sun!
4 bedroom house with plenty of room, and ducted cooling to keep cool in the Christmas heat. Well equipped kitchen with a coffee machine. 5 minute drive from Glenroy station (Craigieburn line) or Gowrie station (Upfield line). We have 2 primary school aged children so the house is kid friendly, and even a trampoline out the back. Nice covered outdoor deck area with bbq. Ample off street parking.
