About this house sitting position in Mernda

*** Re-advertising once again due to previously booked sitter unfortunately now being unavailable.

Wanted! Devoted dog and cat lover to house and critter sit for 6 weeks! After Covid stopped the trip two years ago we are finally re-booked to travel to the UK to scatter my mum's ashes as per her wishes but need someone to care for my elderly dogs and two cheeky, but lovable cats!

Ideally you will be working from home or semi-retired as the dogs are indoors most of the time and cannot be left outside unsupervised for long periods. The dogs are a long coat Chihuahua (10 yrs) and a hairless Chinese Crested (12 yrs) and two cats, a Birman (4 yrs) and a Munchkin (3 yrs). Both dogs are well trained and clean. They can take a bit of time to warm up to people they don't know so you need to love dogs and be prepared to win them over.
The cats are clowns that rule the house and the humans in it :-) They are indoor cats but have a cat run outside they access themselves so they are secure and safe at all times and have no chance of getting lost or injured outside the home. They have two litter trays which needs to be cleaned out twice a day and you will be required to wait on them hand and foot as all good cat servants are required to do ;-) Hopefully you don't mind them sleeping on the bed with you - as they more than likely will.

The house is a three bedroom two bathroom house on a small low maintenance block in a quiet and safe area. Conveniently located close to public transport, supermarkets and cafes. The house features heating/cooling, dishwasher, NBN, Netflix etc.
Maintenance wise there is very little to do - however if you are a keen gardener please feel free to potter around with the plants and if you have an overwhelming urge to mow the lawn and do some weeding I'd have no problem with that. Read more...
