Albany Creek, Queensland

About this house sitting position in Albany Creek

Let me start with the most important criteria… you must LOVE cats (and dogs)!!

We love our fur babies, they mean the world to us. Over the years, we have fostered many kittens and cats, and of course have fallen in love with way too many, which means we managed to adopt 5 cats along the way.

Our cats are pretty self-sufficient, and most times you won't see them all at once, so it feels like there are only 2 cats in the house! Seriously!! However… as there are 5 cats in the house, this does mean there are 3 litter trays in use, and daily scooping is required. The litter trays are on the deck (fully cat netted for safety). Please note, apart from the enclosed, fully netted deck, our cats are indoors only.

Our dog hangs out with cats all day, so basically he thinks he's a cat! He loves to curl up beside you, on your bed, or by your feet. He enjoys going for a small walk (if you feel like it). In the couple of months, our dog has developed a heart condition, which requires someone comfortable with giving 2 tablets, twice a day. He's not hard to give tablets to but it does require you to open his mouth and shove the tablet towards the back of throat. He doesn't growl or bite, so you will safely walk away with all of your fingers!

Our House and Neighbourhood:
Our 4 bedroom, 2 storey home is located in a quiet area in Albany Creek. We are very blessed to live in a great neighbourhood, with excellent neighbours. Over the years we have renovated, and bit by bit, our home has started to take shape.

We back on to a beautiful reserve with a walking/bike path. It's stunning to sit on the deck in the morning or late afternoon to enjoy the outlook. It's easy to imagine you are far from the city, when in fact it's less than 20km from the CBD.

Other house features include air con and an in-ground swimming pool and outdoor entertainment area. The yard is low maintenance (synthetic turf), so the only real grassy area is the footpath. Given this is a short stay, no mowing is required.

One other helpful point to mention - while we are close to public transport (nearby bus stop), however you will find it easier to get around if you have your own car.

A little about us:
We are a little family of three. My husband, my 11 year old daughter and me. We are easy going and are home bodies generally. We work long hours so when we have downtime, family connection is a priority for us. My husband is a huge Star Wars fan and loves Halloween. In fact, we are known in the neighbourhood for our Halloween annual display!

My daughter keeps us on our toes. She loves to dance and she's super creative. As for me, I am happiest when surrounded by my pets!
