We are looking for house sitters to care for our parrots. The main responsibility of the house carers would include looking after 2 Rainbow Lorikeets, 3 Green-cheeked Conures, one Cockatoo and 2 Indian Ringnecks. We may have a few wild birds in care which require food. Cleaning of cages and preparation of food requires approximately over 1.5 hours per day. Two dehumidifiers require emptying and starting again daily if the weather is humid. The pool needs the sock changed every other day. The occasional clean-up of leaves on the terraces would also be nice.
We live in a pole home which overlooks rainforest, a creek and has a short bush walk within the grounds. The house is located 3 kilometres from Kuranda.
If you like outdoor living then you'll like this house. Must be prepared to spend a bit of time with Fritz, our Cockatoo. Own transport required. We would prefer a couple because of Fritz and the work required.
Please allow a week for us to vet applicants and make a decision.
