We need a house sitter

Northern Victoria - Macedon Ranges

Jason

Hi there.

We're looking for a couple (preferred) or person to take care of our home, indoor/outdoor dogs, cat (though the cat may go to the cattery, yet to be confirmed) and a 60 year old Corella.

The dogs: Polly the Border Collie and Susie the Whippet/Kelpie, both dogs have lovely characters and are easy going/low maintenance. They love a walk, usually each evening at the pony club (over the road), but optional when the weather is poor. Otherwise food and some attention is all that's needed.
The cat, Goa ('coz he's a goer!) is a cat- he eats and sleeps, and is in the shed every evening. The Corella, aka Cocky, is getting on now, also very easy to manage, sunflower seeds and water.

Our home is a large federation style home on 6 acres about 2km from Kyneton VIC, with good amenity (Woollies, IGA, YMCA, Hospital, Botanic Gardens etc).

The house is low maintenance though sitters will want to keep the cast iron fire burning over winter - it’s a super effective wood burner (plenty of cut wood on site) so you just need to keep the wood up. There is also Hydronic heating for the rest of the house.

Garden is well established and large- sitters are welcome to potter (or not if it’s too cold out there!) doing as much or little as you wish.

The dates I've mentioned have a couple of days overlap as an FYI.

We look forward to hearing from you.

cheers,
Jason and Fiona.
