About this house sitting position in Nakara

A different type of Holiday... Darwin in lightning storm glory.
Think elevated Darwin house but build it from brick! Full length verandah, lush garden lots of birds, green tree frogs and bold lizards. Louvre windows and fans for the breezes. Swimming pool for a cooling soak.
3 bedrooms available. 1 king and 1 queen 1 double. Airconditioners in all rooms - a good night's sleep is essential, but it is more fun to enjoy the tropical days at their best!
Fully equipped kitchen, Weber on the verandah.
2 dogs - one large, mixed breed. 5 1/2 years old and still learning! The other a small spoodle, 3 years old and learning a little... These are outside/inside dogs, part of the family and all that is going on. Currently smooching on the verandah. They love walking on the beach, in the park and swimming in the pool.
Pool - keep the filter basket clean everyday, vacuum up the extra leaves once a week. Let the pool service people in to test the water and do the full clean.
Water the house plants once a week.
Mow the lawn once a week.
You might be single, a couple, a family or a group of mature friends. Recommend older children or those experienced and happy with boisterous dogs.
Caravan space would depend on your Caravan.
Happy to negotiate use of a manual car too. Read more...

“Had a lovely time with the floppy eared young one and his large but gentle companion who seemed bemused by my ability to get us thoroughly drenched on a walk! The house was great with a hamock positioned to watch the tropical rain thunder down, and ceiling fans which kept us cool. It was a treat to eat a pineapple from the garden and I am grateful for the generosity of Jill who provided both for an overlap and a bicycle, and kindly dropped me off at the airport. The pool (shared with the dogs!) was simply fabulous, and the location was great. Five mins to the shops and bus terminus, and easily walkable to the beach. So a big thank you to Jill, Ollie and Touka! ”

“Jill's house sit was very easy to do as the home is a lovely airy very well kept older style tropical home with tiled floors that I could vacuum and mop every 2nd day to keep it to Jill's standard. Jill thoughtfully arranged to meet me prior to her departure which was excellent as I was taking over from another sitter. Thank you Jill for being so thoughtful in making this meeting happen. I totally enjoyed all the time I spent walking both dogs and the little mishaps were all a steep learning curve for me but stand me in good stead for all future dog sits. Thank you again Jill for choosing me as your second housesitter.”

“Jill was good to communicate with and clear instructions were given for looking after the house and dogs. The house was clean and tidy and felt comfortable to stay in. I would sit for Jill again anytime .”
