Baddaginnie, Victoria

About this house sitting position in Baddaginnie

I have a small, peaceful country cottage in North East Victoria. Easy access, 3km from the Hume FWY. The only requirement for the sitter would be to take care of my dog, Bella.

Bella is a beautiful 1.5 year old Border Collie. She is friendly, well mannered and loving. She is allowed inside the house. She travels well in a vehicle but is also well behaved if she needs to be left alone in the house for a few hours. She is crate trained too (although I rarely use it).

My parents also live on the property, in a separate house so they will take care of the property (120 acres with horses & cattle). They will be available if you need assistance with Bella or anything in the cottage. They have a timid cat, Lotus, therefore Bella cannot stay with them while I am away.

The cottage is simple, neat & liveable. It is quiet and a great place to unwind or focus. Queen sized bed, desk, oven/stove, toaster, kettle, slow cooker, rocket blender. There are beautiful birds and two creeks. There is a temperamental washing machine or two laundromats in Benalla (15km away).
Telstra 4G phone service. Unsure of reception for other carriers. Wifi is available although intermittent from the cottage as I use a signal extender from main house. Full NBN available at my parent's house. No TV.

Benalla is a lovely rural town with all the conveniences including Coles, Woolworths, health food store, cafes, restaurants, a fantastic art gallery, a thriving artists hub & store (North East Artisans) and plenty of local history and nature to explore in the region.

More photos available upon request.

***There is another large room (same size as living room) that I have not photographed that could be utilised if you required it (prior arrangement would need to be made as currently used as storage room). Read more...
