Tallegalla, Queensland

About this house sitting position in Tallegalla

This is peaceful country living, with beautiful sunrises and sunsets. We are close to the gorgeous scenic rim, and only a few minutes from shops and 50 minutes out of Brisbane. Our acreage has plenty of space to park a caravan or RV, but you will of course have the whole house to stay in and your own room and bathroom.
We are in a lovely home on 35 acres with a big verandah in a beautiful rural area (no pool), but it is only a few kilometres off the highway for easy access to Brisbane and Toowoomba as it is roughly mid way between. The country views are stunning!
We are crazy animal people- two dogs, an elderly one with two legs- but don't be worried, he is the happiest dog anywhere, and can walk most places, but will need to be carried a few steps down to the grass to pee regularly. Sugar, our other dog is a little fluffy princess who loves fetch and tug of war. Two cats, one calm and friendly, the other friendly when it suits him! Seven chickens (the eggs are all yours!), five gorgeous alpacas, three goats, 1 mini horse and two cows.
Looking after the livestock is super easy- the alpacas need nothing more than some hay every now and again (for a treat) and that's it- they are inquisitive and endearing, but like most livestock don't enjoy being vigorously patted. They will deign to snuffle your hair/face/hands if you are patient.
The goats are friendly and love treats and get some pellets or hay every now and again as treats and the cows don't need anything. Lizzie, the mini horse is adorable and friendly. She may still be on meds and needs to go to her shelter every night. If you cautious about caring for any of these animals, don't let it put you off- I am happy to chat with you and answer any questions.
We need a sensible animal lover (or couple), with a car, happy to house and pet sit as above. Shops are a 5 minute drive away in Rosewood, and the local pubs do awesome meals.
No care or maintenance of the acreage is required.
