About this house sitting position in Mackay

Would prefer a couple with some rural experience
Our home is on a small property on the south side of Mackay. The property has about 3klm of Sandy Creek on one side as well as a billabong and small dam and a swimming pool. Main reason for wanting sitters is for company for the pets, ( we have two dogs, and two cats) and watering the garden and pot plants. We would prefer a couple who like both dogs and cats. Probably not suitable for young children with so much unfenced water around. We also have cattle that mostly look after themselves but will be calving down at this time. We would just ask sitters to check on them in our buggy to make sure none are looking unwell.

“We loved this housesit. The dogs, Arthur & Stella, and the cats, Archi & Amber, were easy to look after and a pleasure to be around. Also enjoyed our trips into the paddock to check on the cattle. Lovely home with a pool overlooking the green paddock where the cattle were. Bruce & Hilary left us with comprehensive instructions. We had undercover parking for our cars and caravan. We would be more than happy to housesit here again.”

“Lyn and I looked after Hilary and Bruce's place near Mackay up to 18 March 2022. They are a very nice couple and their pets are very easy to look after. And they have a very well designed house and grounds. ”
