About this house sitting position in Canberra

Hi there! We’re offering a lovely house and pet-sitting opportunity in Weston Creek, just 15 minutes from Canberra CBD. The home is bright, open and comfortable, with a large fully fenced backyard, and it’s conveniently located right on a main bus route.

Nature lovers will feel right at home — you’re 1 minute from Cooleman Ridge and Narrabundah Hill walking and biking trails, 15 minutes to the Cotter River, 1km to Cooleman Court, and only 5 minutes to Woden Shopping District.

The house is set up for a relaxed, easy stay with Wi-Fi, Netflix, and free-to-air TV, making it just as comfortable for quiet nights in as it is for getting out and exploring.

You’ll be sharing the space with a happy little menagerie:
🐶 3 well-behaved dogs (inside at night, outside during the day)
🐱 1 indoor-only cat
🦎 Skittles the lizard, 5 years old, very cuddly and part of the family since a baby
🐔 3 chickens (self-contained outdoors, providing delicious fresh eggs!)

This sit would suit someone who genuinely enjoys being around animals. Daily care includes a minimum 20-minute walk for the dogs, scooping the cat’s litter once a day, topping up food and water for everyone, regular vacuuming to manage pet hair, and collecting (and enjoying!) fresh eggs. Skittles also needs a weekly bath and is fed live crickets and mealworms, so you’ll need to be comfortable with that.

Overall, it’s a relaxed, cosy home perfect for a holiday-style stay, with affectionate animals to keep you company and plenty of nature, shops and amenities close by. If you love pets and a peaceful Canberra lifestyle, this could be a perfect fit 🐾✨
We do need a solid commitment as we have booked our flights & accomodation. Thank you.
