About this house sitting position in Howard

Our new 2year old home in Howard, Qld. Is the perfect spot for touring the surrounding areas of the Fraser Coast and Bundaberg. Only 30 mins north of Hervey Bay, 20 mins to lovely beaches and coastline and 20 mins to Maryborough and Childers.
Winter time is mild and warm, and whale watching season, summers hotter with balmy nights.
Plenty of places to go walking or fishing too.
Our private little home is very comfortable and easy to care for, has plenty of hard standing and undercover parking, including caravan space and power and water available if you want to stay in your own van
I designed and Paul built our home, with the help of local Tradies, it has 1 bedroom, 1 shower room, 1 loo, 1 office, large laundry and a large open plan kitchen, dining, lounge overlooking the private front garden.
We built it disability friendly for the future, so is all on 1 level, we love our little home of 80 sq meters on our 1/4 acre block.

Care for Daisy Dog
Daisy Dog, our nearly 2+ old red heeler, aussie cattle dog loves playing ball, has lots of toys she knows by name and throw and fetch is her favourite game.
She adores running along side Paul on his bike, but with me we play fetch in the garden.
We have a dog park just down the road and Paul usually takes her for an early morning warm before work
She is an easy care dog, doesn’t need bathing but needs a good brushing every day.
She has a healthy diet which I will leave prepared for you.
Roo meat and home cooked veggies am, some natural yoghurt each day and kibble and veggies pm. Minimal snacks.
She has always had a dodgy tummy so can have no fats in her diet.
We have some gardening requirements, some watering of the plants and veggies- small raised beds. Paul will do mowing before we leave so probably not need it done
We have been travellers and housesitters ourselves with over 60 sits in Australia and Europe, which we absolutely loved but are now settled down for a while here in Howard.
I’m back to work as a GP Practice Nurse and Paul working for Fraser Coast Council
We look forward to hearing from you.
We just need a 2 week break at this time Read more...
