About this house sitting position in Deloraine

We are looking for a practical couple with cattle experience to look after our 50 acre farm in Deloraine. You will be looking after two border collies (very friendly pets but live and sleep outside), a herd of 40 Murray Grey cattle and some chooks. Being mid-winter the cattle will need feeding - some groups daily with hay and others with silage every few days. The latter requires the ability to drive a bobcat to handle round bales.

The house is very comfortable, with a wood burner to keep the house warm, and is in a stunning rural setting whilst also being only five minutes' drive from the beautiful and very well serviced town of Deloraine.

Reviews for Fiona and Ian

5 stars stars
“Looking after Ian and Fiona's farm was such a delight. Both the collies were beautiful and easy to look after and the house was wonderful, well appointed and warm over the winter months. We really enjoyed looking after the cattle and we received all the information and training on how do that well. Good communication meant we were able to enjoy the stay and the fantastic location of Deloraine. Thanks Ian and Fiona!” - Read more
