About this house sitting position in Hackett

I have a lovely four bedroom, two bathroom home on a leafy corner block with a fenced in front and back yard. I love our home and our neighbourhood. It is easy to get into the city, taking less than 15min on the bus that stops out the front of our house, or a very short drive. Our happy Groodle, Benny, needs two walks a day, is an inside dog (but not in the bedrooms) and is suitable for all ages. He loves humans! We also have two happy and friendly chickens who need fresh water and food each day.

Reviews for Rachel (4 reviews)

5 stars stars
“Rachael's description of her home, facilities and location all accurately reflected the reality. Instructions were clear and easy to follow with a face to face hand over being beneficial. Rachael's home is very comfortable and well appointed. There is a large dog friendly park directly opposite where Benny (dog) enjoyed lots of good romps with other local dogs. Great location for exploring local shops and cafe's in Hackett, Watson, Ainslie and Dickson. Plenty of hiking tracks and trail bike rides up and down and around Mt Majura Nature reserve - main entry point is only a block away. Only downer was the chooks were on strike - no fresh eggs :(”

Thanks for the kind words John. I'll let the chickens know they need to get busy! Benny was a tired but content dog when I got home, and my home was beautifully looked after. Thanks

“Rachel was great to communicate with. Rachel's house is warm and comfortable and a pleasure to look after. Benny, the cavoodle is wonderful. My husband and I really enjoyed his company. The chicken was also easy to get on with and even supplied a couple of eggs. I am very happy to recommend this house sit. ”

“We had a dream house sit. Rachel’s home was a great base for us in Canberra to catch up with family and easily re-acquaint ourselves with our favourite Canberra locations. The home has everything we needed and it’s design and location ensured a very enjoyable stay. Benny is a sweet and most well behaved Groodle who loves his walks. He is very manageable and easy to handle which makes walks in the park opposite or on Mt Majura very enjoyable. Benny is also very affectionate and totally loveable.”
