We are looking for a house sitter in June/July who can keep our home and garden well maintained and tidy and take care of our two much loved dogs. They will need to be walked daily but not for long distances. The kelpie boy is 18 years old so is not up for long walks, just walks to keep his joints moving. The little one is inherited from a parent and loves to go out.
Our gardens are pretty easy to care for and should not need watering at this time of year. There is no grass. There are some pots which may need a little attention, but not extensive.
Our home is comfortable and well appointed with dishwasher and airconditioning, as well as gas fires. It has two bathrooms and a number of living rooms as well as two double bedrooms.
The house is well positioned with buses nearby to go into the city, or out further from the city on the OBahn, if desired. We are also close to the linear park which offers opportunities for off road bicycling and dog walking in natural conditions where possums and koalas are sometimes sighted with the usual array of birds and ducks. Kookaburras are often heard, and sometimes seen.
Adelaide, which is only 6 km away, is easily reached by public transport and has very good public facilities such as a botanical garden, museum, library, hospital, art gallery, theatres and restaurants.
