About this house sitting position in Yamba

FOUND HOUSESITTERS.
2 weeks in November in beautiful YAMBA, Northern Rivers NSW

●NOV 3RD TO NOV 17TH 2019●

Lovely lakeside 2 b/r home right on the lake in an 'Over 50s' gated Resort on the outskirts of Yamba. Absolute lake frontage!!! No houses on other side of lake. Just beautiful and rural. Sit on the verandah and watch the fish jump out of the water. Our lake is fed from the Clarence river...we sometimes have dolphins in the lake. Watch the fish leap out of the water all day. Throw in a crab pot. Bring your kayak. Yamba is surrounded by waterways and has 7 beaches AND the mighty Clarence River.

Whilst rural outlook, Coles and a small shopping Centre only a 2 min drive by car or 5min by bike.
6 min drive into Yamba itself and all the beaches.

We have 2 SMALL adorable pups....one is 17 months (Pom X) named Skippy and one a Shitzu named Monkey 24 months... Also a beautiful, lazy, affectionate loving boy cat (9 years old and desexed!) called Sootyboy.

Our animals are the centre of our world so PLEASE..... only ABSOLUTE cat and dog lovers who truly delight in being around our babies please apply (as opposed to sitters just simply going through the motions of just feeding animals and spending all day away from them. We want and expect you to do fun things with them each day. They are very happy doggies....we love them to be happy as we are happy and fun loving.
We have 2 bikes for your use..(foldup if you want to take the bikes into Yamba in your car)..Resort swimming pool/spa, tennis court, (tennis racqets and balls) golf practice net, fishing. If you have a kayak or small dingy it can be put in water across from our place.
Lovely charming 'Off Leash' park WITHIN the resort.
Whilst we would want you to enjoy our pups and give them LITTLE walks (not long walks!), and outings in either your car OR ours... they are also happy on the verandah or inside when you want to do your own thing too...for a few hours. We just ask that you aren't gone longer than FOUR (4) hours (absolute MAX) on any given day.
No gardening.....maybe just some watering if no rain for a few days. We have our own letterbox outside the house and that is where our bin is picked up and emptied every week too.
Everyone falls in love with our 'babies'....you will too. They are extremely affectionate and fun.
We have a huge TV (with foxtel) in loungeroom and a smaller one in bedroom...also with foxtel.
Airconditioning and fans but also a lovely breeze off lake...on verandah.
The dogs love running around off leash up at Yamba's Lighthouse including by the river...and on the beach. The hotel there (near the lighthouse) has amazing views out to sea
Great places to eat out....some with magnificent views. Great bowling club and Golf Club and a Tavern RIGHT on the Clarence River.
All animal's meals will be packed in pouches stored in the freezer which makes mealtimes SO so easy for you!!
Just get one out of freezer for each animal the night before.
We would like to meet the successful applicant/s BEFOREHAND to confirm we have a perfect match for all concerned...or... stay the night beforehandin the guest room. However you will have OUR bedroom when we go. Deluxe pillow top queensize bed for super comfy sleeps.
Note: MUST be happy with animals on the bed. Please dont apply if you aren't! ) Usually only 1 dog on bed all night as she (Skippy) has night blindness. Sootyboy for some of the night. Monkey gets too hot on the bed...lol...thank goodness.

We will need someone VERY VERY reliable as our holiday is a booked cruise so don't want anyone pulling out at the last minute....except for a dire emergency of course which we know CAN happen.
Please contact us if you love animals as much as we do. This Sit is for someone/couple who are fun loving and looking for a holiday with no work....just play!!! Jan and Col
