About this house sitting position in Shellharbour

Hello
We are a family of 6 looking for a house/pet sitter. Please note we are actually looking for a pet sitter for 2 separate stints (1-10th June and then also 19-24th June).
We have a little dog (whippet) who is extremely affectionate and sweet. She sleeps indoors. She is happy to go for walks if you are, and if not, she’s content in the backyard or sleeping in her bed.
A cat who is quite shy, and stays indoors.
4 little rabbits who are extremely low maintenance. Just check food and water. No cage cleaning required.
And 2 little Indian ring neck parrots who are very friendly and happy to hang out chewing toys in their aviary all day.
We have a 5 bedroom home 3 kms from beautiful Shellharbour beach and famous killalea surf reserve. We have a guest room for you Netflix, wifi, coffee machine.
Our main priority is having someone here to feed and care for our children’s pets. We want you to be able to enjoy the stay in the beautiful area. We are close to endless beautiful beaches, waterfalls, cafes, bike paths, spectacular escarpment and the highlands, bushwalking in various national parks north south and west of us. We are only 8mins from Kiama an 20mins to Wollongong. Looking forward to hearing from you if you are interested in our sit! Read more...

“It was such a pleasure house sitting for Sophie and her beautiful family and it was so special to be able to meet them all as well. Thank you for your kind words and trusting us to take care of your wonderful pets and house. It was such a joy to be able to experience shellharbour, a place we'd never visited before. It was also a joy to see our beautiful boy interact and enjoy the company of all the animals. Our hearts were truely content during our stay. We miss your beautiful home and all the animals!Until next time!!!”

“Sophie’s house and pets were amazing- Gracie (daughter) gave explicit instructions on how to care for her rabbits and birds which were easy to follow. I stayed three weeks and did a lot of walking around Shell Cove and there were an abundance of shops to explore. A very comfortable and enjoyable stay. Thank you Sophie for the opportunity to pet sit for you💐Helen”

Thankyou Helen for doing such a wonderful job with our pets. Gracie was very reassured that you followed her instructions so carefully to ensure her precious little creatures were safe and happy.

“We’ve just finished 3 weeks of bliss in Shellharbour. We can’t emphasise enough how lovely the pets are!! They are super easy to care for and just sooooo endearing! Myrtie the cat and Lexie the dog are two of the best pets we’ve cared for, they are easy going, affectionate and both really clever. We have a 9 month old baby and they were so gentle and trustworthy with her, it was a wonderful experience and we can tell she really misses them already. The birds and rabbits were lovely too and honestly no fuss. The house was beautifully clean and had everything we needed. Sophie was brilliant to communicate with, very quick to respond and left us detailed notes. We highly recommend this sit to anyone considering it, we’d come back in a heartbeat!”
