About this house sitting position in Birdwood

We are a family of four living on a hobby farm of about 8.5 acres in Birdwood, SA. We are located a couple of km’s up a dirt road where you’ll often find kangaroos and lizards!

We have an assortment of pets. A dog, ‘Lucy’ who is a wonderfully mannered German Short-Haired Pointer, a cat - ‘Marsh’ who is a Russian Blue and also relatively easy going for a cat, a bearded dragon - ‘Pickles’ who has a fully automated set up, 10 black face Suffolk sheep, 2 alpacas - ‘Frank’ and ‘Beans’ who just go about their own lives, and 2 pet cows - ‘Hamish’ and ‘Andy’ who are super friendly as we bottle fed them from 10 days old. All these animals have grown up and lived with young kids so very friendly and safe.

We are travelling overseas from 21/4/24 - 14/5/24 and need someone to stay at our property and ensure the animals are fed/watered/cared for. The cat lives inside only so needs to have litter cleaned and changed as needed. The dog stays on the property and is often home outside during the day and sleeps inside. Sheep have the dam for water and cows are about to get their own automated trough. We would leave them with large bales of hay in the paddocks also, so feeding wouldn’t be necessary.

Let us know if you can help out :) Read more...
