About this house sitting position in Aratula
We located in the Scenic Rim catchment in a rural residential area of Aratula QLD 4309. On a small property - on just over an acre. Our home is high set with 3 bedroom , seperate bathroom , lounge ,dining area and chefs kitchen,their is a detached office off the verandah as well as a long covered verandah - nice on a sunny day for a cuppa . Access to our home is by way of stairs both back and front. We do have a two bay undercover carport for vehicles. Aratula is a lovely quiet location with very friendly neighbours.
We are a 10 minutes drive to Kalbar, (which is a very quaint village) 15 minute drive Boonah (small shopping village with IGA Supermarket,cafes,pubs, etc) with major shopping centres only 45 minutes away to either Ipswich, Beaudesert and Warwick getting to Warwick is over the Cunningham Gap highway , although the Cunningham Gap is still undergoing repairs but it is a lovely winding drive over the Cunningham Gap on the way to Warwick which has a large shopping precinct.
We are looking for a couple who love dogs to look after our home and our two furry boys Astro is a 6 years old Dalmatian and Apollo 2 year old standard poodle.
They are best of friends and play well together and walk well together.
Both Astro is and Astro love their daily walk each morning and playing fetch ball in the afternoons I’m sure Astro can tell the time as he know when its 3pm ready for their ball play which is between 15 minutes to 30 minutes each day - depending on weather and the boys . Our two furry boys are house trained and they both sleep inside at night in their own beds on the floor in our room however we have woken up in the morning to find them at end of our bed, still trying to get them out of this habit.- but at the moment especially in colder months they will sneak up
We are happy with you to exploring the area leaving out boy in the yard , but request our boys not left alone for long extended periods maximum 4 to 6 hours or when dark.
You will have your own room with a king size bed, own bathroom with full access to the main house.
Depending on weather or we would appreciated our plants to be watered if they require it along with a small vegetable garden (Just getting ready to plant winter veggie so finger crossed my veggies will grow).
If this all sounds like a place you would like to spend a relaxing time at or you require more information we would love yo hear from you.

Reviews for Sheron & Robert
Your home is a credit to you both I could see all the hard work that has gone into bringing it to the standard it is now from inside to out each and every room its immaculate and made my job easy just to maintain to where you hade left it for me.. including the beautiful gardens you both are so welcoming and generous it was an absolute pleasure to mind your home.
The Two boys ( dogs) I found we bonded very quickly and they were a delight keeping me entertained with there rituals and interactions such well behaved dogs and if they needed a little reminder of manners
they responded to commands nicely.
It would be an honour to sit for the two boys and your home if the opportunity came my way again in the future.
Kindest regards
Rob.” - Read more
