Dear Animal Lover,

Hi, I'm Lauren, and I’m looking for an older couple or a single female to care for my two beautiful indoor-only Tonkinese cats and loveable cattle dog in my stunning country retreat in Adelaide Park, QLD.

Kitsune and Macchie (Mackie) are two of the cutest cats you'll meet, with sweet and quirky personalities. Their favourite pastime? Snuggling together for sunlit naps. While they’re older and less playful, they’ll gladly chase a toy if you’re up for some laughs.

Kitsune is a cuddly, sensitive soul who loves pats and a brush of his silky coat. He can get anxious at times, but will settle with a kind word and a scratch of the head. Macchie, on the other hand, is a shy ‘fraidy cat who prefers quiet company and may hide during thunderstorms. She’s doesn't like small children but warms up quickly to kind-hearted strangers.

Tessa is a recent addition to our family, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a sweeter dog. She adores beach walks, is reasonably lead-trained, and, depending on her mood, enjoys playing with toys and chasing balls. She’s also a fan of pet-friendly cafes, making her the perfect companion for a day out.

We live in a gorgeous farmhouse on acreage, just 7 minutes from Yeppoon, a coastal paradise with cafes, shops, beaches, and the famous Yeppoon Lagoon. National parks and Great Keppel Island are nearby, with Rockhampton only 35 minutes away.

The house is two stories. Upstairs is my living space with a large open plan kitchen/living, bedroom, and large bathroom / kitty litter room. Downstairs is a private, self-contained two-bedroom suite that I usually have on air b-n-b. Since my cats are used to sleeping on the bed with me, my sitter(s) can have the pick of downstairs bedrooms, while spending their leisure time upstairs with the animals and enjoying the farm vistas. Tessa is mostly an outdoor dog and sleeps snuggly safe and sound on the upstairs deck.

Property amenities include a pool, sauna, firepit, and parking for a caravan. Aside from animal loving, other minor tasks include watering house plants and light pool maintenance (scooping leaves). The house is fully air-conditioned upstairs and down.

I’ll be leaving the following day after your arrival and am only travelling within Australia, so am contactable while I’m away.

Dates in the ad are inclusive. If you’re a kind and caring animal lover, we’d love to welcome you to our paradise!

Warm regards,
Lauren
