About this house sitting position in Urraween

We are looking for someone to watch our 6 animals while we go on a cruise during the school holidays. We had a sitter lined up but they have just fallen through, so we are now looking for a new sitter last minute to help us out.

We have 6 pets as follows:
2 dogs - a cavoodle and a sheltie. They are both elderly dogs - around 13-14 years old and very easy going girls. They don’t require walking as they both have arthritis, they just need feeding each day and someone to be around to give them a pat every now and then. One of the dogs needs a tablet every second day which is easy to hide in some cheese. The dogs are fed once a day at about 6pm. They have a combination of pre-prepared wet food (Lyka dog food) and kibble.

4 cats - we have 2 six year old Balinese boys who are very easy going. They love to hide and sleep and are very independent, but want to know that their people are around. We also have two 18 month old Siberian cats, one boy and one girl. These two are a little more adventurous and love to play. They still get fits of the zoomies which is always fun to watch. The cats all share a few bowls of dry food and they all graze at different times. We just make sure their bowls are filled up each day and they can eat when they get hungry.

Fish - we have a 4 foot fish tank with 20-30 fish in it. They just need some flake food each day.
All the cats and dogs can come and go outside through a dog door but they can’t get off the property. We don’t let them out the front of the house.

We have a 4 bedroom home in Hervey Bay, opposite a dog park and a short drive to the beach. The house is about 10 years old and in very good condition. We have Netflix, paramount plus, kayo sports, binge and all the regular channels available to watch on TV. We have super fast internet you are welcome to connect to, air conditioning through all the living rooms and a portable air con unit in the master bedroom, plus excellent ceiling fans throughout the whole house. We have external security cameras on the house but none inside the house at all. We do have a garage but our cars will be left in there as we aren’t taking them away.

5 stars stars
“I thoroughly enjoyed caring for this 6 fur baby family & getting to know their different personalities & unique behaviors with each other. They are all super friendly & gentle animals & after about 3 days, the shyest of them all had warmed up to me & I knew I was going to miss them after leaving. They were all easy to look after, especially with the 2 older dogs not even requiring walks. Upon arrival, there were clear detailed instructions and if I needed to know anything, I always received immediate responses to any text messages I sent. It was a comfortable home to stay in and I enjoyed a little sight seeing whilst there. I look forward to next time. ”
