Our home

Need someone to look after our 2 cats & 1 golden retriever while we're away.

The two cats are very independent and only require feeding morning & night

The golden retriever will be 4 years old and medium energy and still very much in the puppy stage
She loves attention, walks and lots of belly rubs

She gets fed twice a day as well

The main bedroom will be made up for you and there's a TV with streaming & YouTube

Free to help yourself to tea or coffee

A Golden retriever, Luna, 4 years old.
Still a puppy who loves walks, pats and belly rubs but also loves to snooze the day away as well.

2 cats

Jasper - small black cat is timid and takes awhile to warm up to new people, she has a bubble and not super keen on lots of pats.
She will also love to drink out of the bath tub tap, yes that's right, the bath tub tap its the only way she drinks water 😅

Paws - the fluffy black and white cat is the opposite. He absolutely loves pats, attention and food and is very good at acting like he's never been fed.


All 3 animals sleep inside at night, we don't let them stay out for their protection.
Luna is happy to sleep in the lounge room on the couch or rug.

The cats sleep mostly with us but are also happy to sleep in the lounge as well.

Our garden

Minimal - If possible watering our plants and garden beds would be amazing, they require minimal care 😊

Review

We recently had the pleasure of house sitting for Nikki, and it was a truly wonderful experience! The location of the home is fantastic—close to the beach and local shops, making it incredibly convenient for everything we needed. We also loved that there was a lovely playground within walking distance, which was perfect for the kids. One of the highlights of our stay was Luna, the dog. She was an absolute joy to be around! Friendly and well-behaved, Luna quickly became part of our family ... MoreWe recently had the pleasure of house sitting for Nikki, and it was a truly wonderful experience!

Friendly and well-behaved, Luna quickly became part of our family during our stay. We loved the cats too. The kids had an amazing time on the trampoline in the backyard. Nikki, the homeowner, was incredibly accommodating and friendly. She made sure we had everything we needed and was always available to answer any questions.
