About this house sitting position in Cashmere

Hi, we are Jean Luc & Debra. We have 3 adult Children and 8 precious Grandchildren and a Senior Dog named Casper.
We are located in the suburbs on Brisbane Northside, in a quiet cul de sac street. Our home is lowset with 4 bedrooms and an undercover outdoor space. There is air-conditioning to all bedrooms and family area in the home with reliable internet/wifi. Local bus service is at the front of the Estate (<1km) and Strathpine train station 8.2km away.
Our local IGA shopping centre is 2.1km away. It has an IGA, Doctors, Dentist and a Chemist. There is a Cafe, Bakery, Indian and Thai takeways . Our Vet is located at this shopping centre.
Slightly further away (3.2km) is Warner village shopping centre. It has both Woolworths and an Aldi supermarket and a Butchers. This centre has 2 Cafes (2 Chef and a Cupcake, Stellarossa and numerous different takeaway options (McDonalds, GYG, Subway, Brodies, Fish and Chips, Sushi Train, Pizza, Indian, Noodles and Dumplings to name a sample. There is a Hairdresser and Barber, Doctors and Chemist.
The important part of our household is our dog a 14yrs 9mth (he'll be 15 come December) male Jack Russel Terrier, Casper. Being an older gentleman, he likes to be close to his human people and tends to relax/snooze either inside or outside. He sleeps inside of a night and normally in the same room as us.
In August of last year, he was diagnosed with IVS (Idiopathic Vestibular Syndrome). I had never heard of this syndrome but is common in older dogs. I liken it to Human Vertigo. He has not had an episode at all this year.
In recent months we have noticed hearing and eyesight loss and whilst not diagnosed I would guess some dementia is starting.
Casper is currently on 3 medications. CBD oil, I squirt into his mouth twice a day morning and night, 4CYTE is added to food once a day and the other is 2 small tablets Hepatoadvanced, I hide in food first thing in the morning.
He is a lovely natured dog, who is now coming into his twightlight years. He is still excited to have a walk and usually it's home to nap. On occasion he may hitch a bit of a ride in your arms for few metres. As his enthusiasm and stamina don't always align. Read more...
