Maryborough, Queensland

About this house sitting position in Maryborough

Hi we are Wendy and Ed. We are looking for a responsible, experienced housesitter to mind our home, our little cat Miss Kitty and our two chickens while we're away in SE Asia for 3 months.

Miss Kitty is about 8 years old and requires half a tablet every 2nd day. She is otherwise in good health. Our 2 chickens need daily feeding and their water changed as well as changing the hay in their roost as needed.

The yard and garden only entails watering the pot plants about once a week and mowing the yard while we are away.

The house would ideally suit a single person or couple with no children or pets, and with no mobility issues as it is a high set Queenslander and therefore has external stairs. It has a large wrap around plant filled covered verandah which is ideal to relax in at the end of the day. It is low maintenance and fully equipped including Wi-Fi, YouTube, and catch-up TV. You will have your own room with clothes storage provided.

There is a small hub of shops including pharmacy, newsagent, fish and chip takeaway and service station about 150 metres walk from the house. It is about a 15 minute walk (3 minute drive) to the heart of town and all the amenities including shops, parks, river, clubs and hotels.

Maryborough's heritage centre has a number of colonial buildings, museums and art spaces. Hervey Bay, the gateway to K'Gari (Fraser Island), is only 20 minutes away. Noosa and the Sunshine Coast, Rainbow Beach and Bundaberg are all within an easy 1 & 1/2 hour drive. Read more...
