About this house sitting position in Florey
I have a 3 bedroom, one bathroom home with separate lounge room and sitting/dining room opening from the kitchen. Canberra's winter weather is kept comfortably at bay with RC/AC's in every room, plus a slow combustion fireplace, if you like the thought of crackling logs on the fire on a cold winter's night. Secure back garden, easy care, may need some watering/weeding but is designed to be very low maintenance.
The house is close to Belconnen - a major shopping and town centre in Canberra's Northwest. There are bus stops very close by and Florey's local shopping centre is a 5 mins stroll across the local oval. The shops also have a doctors’ surgery, chemist, 2 cafes, a supermarket, take away shops etc. Belconnen's Westfield Mall is a short drive or walk away around Lake Ginninderra.
All the delights of the National Capital are easily accessed and the surrounding hills and bushland have amazing bushwalks and nature parks/reserves to explore.
Monty is a 9 year old Jack Russell cross breed rescue dog. He is anxious and has medication that helps with the anxiety. Sticking to his routine is also helpful for him. He is not a cuddler but sleeps on my bed every night and under the duvet in winter. Once he gets used to you, he will follow you everywhere. He is not great with other dogs as he does not understand how to play/socialise properly. He does pull a lot on the lead but is only 10 kilos so is manageable. He is a very intelligent dog and just likes to do his own thing. He is used to being on his own during the day while I am at work.
If you are looking for a little flexibility with dates, that can be arranged.
I look forward to hearing from you Read more...
