Our non-smoking home is in a quiet area of Cobble Hill, a small rural community in the South-Central area of Vancouver Island - 45 minutes north of Victoria. Our property backs onto forest, providing privacy and tranquility in a very safe neighbourhood. Fully shopping facilities are only 5 minutes by car. A car is necessary to take advantage of all that this area offers, as public transportation is limited.
Responsibilities: caring for fish ponds; basic lawn and garden care; maintaining hot tub; picking up mail; bank deposits.
We have a one-bedroom, self-contained holiday rental suite on the back garden level and it might be occupied for a week or two at a time. You would be required to clean and restock the suite between guests, meet and greet, and see to additional needs - which are usually minimal.
The peace, comfort, and privacy of our guests is paramount!
What we offer: a comfortable home with all mod cons and utilities provided, hot tub, propane bbq, high speed internet with WiFi, 48" HD Smart TV. We encourage our housesitters to treat our home as they would their own, including have family and friends visit if they choose.
The exact dates for our departure and return are not yet fixed, but will include September through early December.
Through past experience, we think a couple works best for us.
