About this house sitting position in Greta

My off grid home is a very comfortable, small mud brick house on 5 acres, with an established garden and a permanent creek.
Excellent solar power system, and large tank water supply.
There is a gas stove and cooktop for warmer months, and a Thermalux woodstove for winter cooking.
The house is available to sitters, there is also plenty of space to park a caravan.
Nearby attractions include the King Valley wineries, the Milawa gourmet region, rail trails and bushwalking.
There is NBN Wi-Fi, and Netflix available. It is possible to work from home.
I am looking for genuine animal lovers to care for my donkey, two pet sheep, one guinea fowl and one chicken. (free range).
Confidence with farm animals preferred.
Minimal garden care: just a vegetable patch and pot plants to water.
Full orientation to the property provided...it is best to arrive one day ahead of time if possible. Many other sitters have enjoyed staying here.

I am looking for someone who will treat my property with respect, as well as care for my animals.

Non smokers only.

“We will truly miss Bindi the beautiful Donkey, Victor and Jumbuck the Woolie Family and the Feathered Ladies. Helen was soo welcoming and very blessed to live in a little slice of heaven. We were very lucky to be able to sit for a glorious week. We would love to have the opportunity sit again in the near future. ”

“It was a refreshing change to petsit for Helen in her quiet rural vista. The mud brick house is clean and comfortable and Helen went out of her way to provide detailed instructions on how best to manage the off grid property. All animals are in great condition. The sheep and donkey are very domesticated and the chooks are social girls and fun to hang out with. Helen is multi-skilled, fixing a broken pipe, cooking a nice meal on my first night and offering local information on places to visit during my short stay. Much appreciated! ”
