About this house sitting position in Gwandalan

I would love someone to come and housesit for me in Gwandalan and look after 'Buddy' whilst I am away for a weekend. Unfortunately, the housesitter I had booked has today cancelled on me.

I live at the top of the Central Coast on Lake Macquarie. My house is modern with a private peaceful back garden. The suburb has shops, gym, yoga, cafe, bowling club, etc,

The lake is 8 mins walk, beaches are close by, and the Munmorah State National Park is 4km away. Within 15 minutes drive you have Catherine Hill Bay, Budgewoi, etc - so it is close to lots of places and plenty of water! You have everything without going out of the suburb if you don't want to. If you like to eat out there are some modern places around as well.

I have an 11.5 year old border collie. I walk him daily, then he runs around the back garden. He is low maintenance with walking and keeping entertained - you can do your own thing during the day (he has a doggy door). Buddy loves his pats when he gets to know you. He can be hesitant at first. A healthy pooch for his age, who doesn't bark much and likes his food.

I am seeking a house sitter (single or couple) that has endorsements on their profile and is willing to walk Buddy during the weekend.

You will be very comfortable here. A great place to visit for a holiday. Thanks for reading!

“Lisa and her beautiful border collie Buddy both welcomed me into their lovely home. Buddy was no trouble to look after and I felt safe and comfortable. I loved having my top up of pet therapy. Love you Buddy! ”

“I definitely recommend Lisa and her lovely companion Buddy as a housesit. A friendly generous soul, and Buddy a funny delightful mate to keep me company as I stayed there. It was a pleasure to look after him and witness his funny quirks and behaviours. The home and garden a pleasant environment, close to places of interest. Thank you for a pleasurable stay Lisa.”

“Lisa’s house is spacious, comfortable and very clean. It is located in a reasonably modern subdivision with easy access to the lake. Buddy is a beautiful and delightful Border Collie and accepted us immediately. He became particularly devoted to Janette. Clear instructions were provided with some helpful and useful suggestions to make our stay more enjoyable. It was a stress free experience.”
