About this house sitting position in ENCOUNTER BAY
Waterfront home in picturesque Encounter Bay(Victor Harbor)
Weather is mild, close to wine regions, great cafes and restaurants a short walk or drive away.
Great views of the Bluff and Granite Island and Wright Island
The home is easy care - 1 large bedroom and a large living. dining and kitchen
Great outdoor sitting area in a sheltered . leafy backyard
Sitters would be required to water our small native plant nursery, potted plants through the garden areas and potted plants in the backyard seating area. This takes 1-2 hours every 2-3 days depending on weather. The tube stock and small propagating house needs watering each day - 10 minutes to do
It would be appreciated if a little weeding was done but no other maintenance is required
If no rain some watering of fruit trees would also be required by drip irrigation.
No lawn mowing required
We have a group of magpies that visit regularly that we would like to be fed morning and night
Sitters with some gardening experience would be preferred
Non smokers only need apply
During the short gaps between sits an arrangement to live in the other part of our home could possibly be made if appropriate

Reviews for Helen and Bruce
Their home is comfortable and cosy with the most spectacular views.
Helen and Bruce were very friendly and welcoming. They left clear instructions on how to care for their extensive garden and the family of magpies that visit daily.
They were in regular contact and were quick to answer any questions we had.
We would love to house sit for them again. ” - Read more
