I am looking for non-smoking housesitters to care for three dogs and 6 pond fish. The tiny 1yo will probably be in the house (with her favourite dog, my Pippa) for only half the stay. Because of the logistics of walking 3 doggies I believe there should be two sitters. I'm told the Queen bed is very comfortable for a couple.
My home is a 4yo ground floor apartment in central Takapuna just 20 minutes walk to the beach or a very short drive to my fave beach in Milford (another delightful village community). You would have your own bedroom with a Murphy Queen bed and your personal bathroom which also contains the laundry - a dual purpose Bosch machine. There would be space for one car in the underground park beside my vehicle.
The garden has vegetables and herbs growing in elevated beds, pots and regular garden beds. Citrus etc are growing in pots as well as bonsais. Indoors I have orchids and Peace Lilies. I would like you to be able to care for my plants competently.
We are just a couple of minutes drive from the northern motorway, a gentle 5 minute walk from Countdown supermarket, 15 minute walk from 24 hour fitness studio and many other interesting outlets including Kathmandu. A gentle walk will take you to Lake Pupuke, its surrounding park, The Pumphouse Theatre and Rendez Vous cafe. Adjacent to the park is a city council pool and fitness centre.
I would like applicants for the house-sit position to have references and a police check, please. I also require at least one person to be home with our critters much of the day.
I look forward to hearing from interested parties.
