About this house sitting position in Brinsmead

We're looking for a single person or couple to look after our tropical oasis - house, two dogs, garden and large pool from late August until almost Christmas while we head off in our new caravan. We have a Cavalier named Benson and an Aussie Terrier named Arnie, both very friendly. We live at the end of a close only a few minutes drive from Redlynch Central Shopping Centre and less than 15 minutes from Cairns city centre, and a couple of hundred metres from a bus stop.

There are plenty of options for exercising and/or relaxing. We have a resort-style pool which includes a lap pool section. There are a number of walking and bike paths in the area as well as parks, We have Foxtel and Netflix.

A love of gardening would be an advantage. Any experience with pool maintenance would also be handy, although not essential. Our dogs are both on medication, but have it with their daily meal and are otherwise very lovable.

There is only one available bedroom, but it has a queen size bed. Our usual house sitters are unavailable, so we're hoping to find someone else who will fall in love with our house and dogs as much as they do!

Reviews for Peter

5 stars stars
“My 3,5 months house sit at Peter's and Tania's has been most pleasant, as has my time with Benson and Arnie, the two delightful canine family members.

Peter and Tania have been most helpful with organizing things at short notice, coordinating the timing of their trip with my requirements, transport, overlapping accommodation and storage, and have provided lawn mowing and pool maintenance services for the duration of their absence.

The house with lovely pool, tropical backyard and nearby dog walking park were very comfortable as well as accessible by public transport.

I felt remotely supported by Peter at all times during their long absence and local support was also made available if needed.

I can highly recommend Peter and Tania as reliable and generous hosts, even for such a lengthy stay and would be very happy to sit for them again in the future!
