Gympie, Queensland

About this house sitting position in Gympie

Seeking a solo lady to mind our home and 3 pets, which are much-loved, for 5 weeks.

Our old Queenslander home is quirky and comfortable, high set and airy and set on a quarter acre. French doors open to an expansive front veranda overlooking a large fossicking reserve and the River-to-Rail trail - great for morning coffee or sunset drinks. We have an open-plan country kitchen and living area, with wood-burning heater and air-con. There's also a piano and the odd guitar to play.

We are 5 min drive from the historic Mary Valley Rattler steam train and it can be seen choofing south on its rides several times a week from our front veranda.

Gympie is a big country town with all
amenities - at the northern end of the Sunny Coast. It's only 35-45mins to the beaches at Tin Can Bay, Rainbow Beach and Noosa and an hour to the gorgeous hinterland villages of Montville and Maleny.

Now to the really important stuff - we are looking for a caring lady to look after our labrador (Kora) and 2 older cats (Tommy and Coco) who mean the world to us; their care is our primary concern. Kora (age 3) is a rescue dog and a darling with a loving nature. Being a rescue, we aren't too sure what happened in the first 2 yrs of her life but she is less fond of males - hence the request for female only. Our cats are easy and have their own zones and spend alot of time inside. We have very good neighbours and vet. Thanks for reading about us. We'd love to meet you prior but facetime/zoom would also suffice.

Duties: feeding pets am and pm; walking Kora; watering some pot plants; collecting mail. Read more...
