About this house sitting position in Laidley South

WELCOME TO OUR

House Owner: Karyn & Bruce

Bruce & I are new to house sitting & we looking for gentle, dog loving people
(non smokers) to care for our home and 3 well mannered obedient dogs. We need some who is able to be here most of the day and overnight. Someone or a couple with teenage child or older preferably a couple who are retired or not working. As we only have a 3 bedroom home. And one of these is used by the dogs of a night time.
Our dogs are used us being home most of the time as I am retired and Bruce is semi retired.
Our dogs are home dogs! They sleep & live in our very clean & tidy home. We hope you would be able to maintain the cleanliness of our home & yards whilst we are away,
Our dogs are 1 Weimaraner &
2Weimaraner Long Hair We do have another older dog as well who requires medication but we can kennel him if required at the Vets.
The dogs are fed their biscuits
twice a day. Jorja loves a game of throw the ball, whilst the other 2 love to chase each other. We also walk them around our 11 acre property on a lead. The land is quite steep to go down & back so I tend to stay on the flat close to the home as my knees are not very good.
Our gardens are easy care, mostly potted azaleas and Bromeliads to water, some fruit Trees, herbs and lavender as well.

IN GENERAL:
We are home bodies & our dogs are very loving and love being with us. They love people who are gentle & kind but maintain control.
Our dogs tend to sleep on their couches during the heat of the day, and are played with late in the afternoon in their exercise yards which are very large. Mum, Jorja absolutely loves the ball thrown for her to retrieve.
Brother & sister, Kayla & Chester play chase with each other and are comical to watch.
They are beautiful dogs, they know their routine and commands as they have had obedience training but can be a little naughty too sometimes!
We love them to bits and we hope you will too.
Happy Housesitting for us in our beautiful Colonial home with 4 sided verandahs where you can sit have a wine and cheese platter & watch the amazing sunsets we get.
All the very best and we look forward to meeting you.
Cheers
Karyn & Bruce
