We are looking for a house sitter (single or couple, non-smoking) who understands that some homes are ruled by their pets and kids, not their adults. Fortunately we’re taking the kids with us but are leaving behind a crazy but loving Spoodle who sleeps at the end of the bed, two cats (one long-hair, one short-hair) and a lizard (no handling required). We live in a largish, comfortable, low-maintenance home in Dunlop in the ACT and are looking for someone who would be happy to live with our pets for just over three weeks in April.
No mowing is required and the garden will need little if any care at that time of year. Our dog enjoys regular walks (it’s a lovely area for walking) and the cats enjoy a bit of a chat and a brush anytime you’re willing. As long as the lizard has some food, she’s more than happy to be ignored.
We are a short walk to the bus stop, a ten minute walk to the local shops and about a 12 minute drive to the Belconnen town centre.
