About

We live on a 5 acre rural property 15 minutes from the closest town in a lovely 3 bedroom and 1 study timber home surrounded by a large garden. We have a 15 yr old whippet, Xanny, a 4 yr old tonkinese cat called Chino, and three chooks. We would love someone to care for our ageing xanny who loves companionship and sleeps indoors and play with chino who is a little more reserved but needs to be kept in at night. We have some plants in a glass house that may need some water occasionally . There is a double lock up garage and the house has all modern conveniences.

Pets & farm animals

Xanny our whippet has a heart condition and needs medication twice a day and does like to be around us most of the time. She sleeps in the house with us but has access via dog flap for toileting outside. Chino the cat free ranges outside during the day but is locked up in the laundry at night to protect native wildlife. The chooks are kept in a run and have ad lib food and water available which would need to be replenished occasionally.

House Tasks

Other tasks could include some tidying of the garden and watering of plants in the glasshouse and indoors.
