About this house sitting position in Forth

We are looking for the right person to fill our house sit in September.
Our house-sit offers ideal conditions for someone seeking peace and quiet, yet not isolation.

We have a large dog. He is a mastiff x and a very easy dog to manage. We prefer someone used to large dogs and who can keep up with his big walking style on the lead. He is a pleasure to manage and handle in every way.
Devonport city is where the Spirit of Tasmania comes into port, and where there is also an airport, main shopping centres etc.

Our cottage is walking distance to the local shop/petrol station, cafe, pub, buses and river.

This is an ideal house sit if you need a rest from the rat race and somewhere lovely to stay and relax in a clean and comfortable environment. We have a large organic garden and wonderful views. Garden duties will not be required by the sitter other than perhaps a bit of hosing if it doesn't rain.

(Our past sitters have all been very comfortable here. We've had a writer who needed a quiet space, an editor who works from her computer, an artist who needed to finish off a piece of work for an important art prize, a wonderful dental professional who connected amazingly with our boy, a student needing a serious break and a big rest from her studies... and they've been wonderful, but sadly they are either no longer house sitting or they are solidly booked.)

We are in a friendly neighbourhood and community.

Preference is for a sitter who eats a plant-based diet or willing not to bring meat into our home for the duration. No smokers.

We will require a recent police check and a minimum of 2-3 references.

There is a good local bus service which will take you to all the surrounding towns and many of the areas if you don't have a car.

First contact on Skype would be preferred.
