We are looking for a housesitter to take care of our house and garden and our 4 chickens .Our house is situated on 11 acres in a rural area near Dungog. We are 1hr from Newcastle and 3hrs from Sydney by car/rail. The rail service is nearby but a car/bike would be necessary to get around. The chickens require minimal supervision for food and water and to be let out daily into the orchard. The House needs to be kept neat and clean The garden will need minimal maintenance over this period which will involve operating a pump on the dam for our garden irrigation tanks .
